Hello Mick ... Unable to decode/read your attachment (signature.asc) pls advise program/software for that.
Mick's attachment is a GPG signature used to authenticate that it really is him sending it. If you look in your distro's package manager you should find the necessary programs to decode and verify it - I dunno if there's a plugin for opera mail, but I know there is for thunderbird.
BTW, question for the group in general - do we do key-signing at any point? The latest revelations re: the NSA have made me pull my finger out and generate one, but no-one else I know uses it …

This question last came up about a year ago ( http://lists.alug.org.uk/pipermail/main/2012-July/031155.html ) when Richard Parsons brought it up. Richard and I ended up meeting for a key signing exchange.

I wonder if WebGPG could do it, but that would mean using Iceweasel/Firefox to access Opera Mail which seems a bit ;)

I'm willing to sign keys after meeting people a few times and/or other corroboration, but I seem to spend most of my time in West Norfolk, Cambridgeshire or London these days. Are people interested in a meeting over this side and what day of the month?

I would be happy to attend any meeting in West Norfolk. I am fairly flexible on days and times. I often feel a bit isolated up here in King's Lynn as meetups seem a long way to go and not have a beer!

IKWYM - it's a long walk home.

I'm in south Suffolk, so I'm afraid King's Lynn is a bit far for me to travel on a school night unless I take the day off work -- which I don't mind doing if necessary, but if that's where it's going to be I'd rather it was during the day on a Saturday if at all possible.
Dave.
