You included in-line your public key block.
Please note, *before verification* the additional dash and space at the
header: - -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32)
and at the footer: - -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----

These additional dashes and spaces disappear *after verification*, thus
allowing to import the key block.

This is "normal" to the best of my limited knowledge.


I believe this e-mail was properly processed by Barry's combination of
Thunderbird+Enigmail+Yahoo(new settings?)
