I know. There was a case at Cranfield where a company informed us that
someone at Cranfield was sending dubious images to their buddy at the
company. "Was there a complaint from the recipient?" I asked. "No, we
picked it up in a random scan mailboxes." I acted on this by informing
the Cranfield user of the complaint from the company, informing him in the
broadest terms that some companies may monitor employ email (but not
Cranfield). So now at least this guys friend in that company knows about
monitoring.
I also pointed the sender to a PGP FAQ, but he didn't act on that as far
as I know (which isn't much since I don't monitor individuals mail).

OK. But I haven't managed to persuade PINE to do the right thing with
signature attachments.
