[Bug 413802] Re: Wrong micalg value in vm-pgg.el

 

Does anybody know how to fix this?  The file vm-pgg.el has an insert for
the string "\tmicalg=pgg-".  If we change this to "\tmicalg=pgp-", are
we done?  Is anybody using vm-pgg still?  -- Uday

Bug description:
When signing a message with PGP/GnuPG, vm-pgg.el sets the micalg parameter in the multipart/signed Content-type header to micalg=pgg-sha1.  However, according to RFC 3156 it should be micalg=pgp-sha1, or more general it should start with 'pgp-'. Supposedly this is a typo.
