The actual text and key arrived to the mailing list.  At this point I cannot
verify from anyone if the attachment made it through correctly.  my
apologies.

I have enabled the content_filter and added mime_types to see if this will
solve my little problem.

application/pgp-signature
multipart/signed

As you might understand, losing patches is not a desirable outcome, so maybe
in the meantime this will have some effect.

I am probably using the wrong word in the wrong place here.  Everything is
displayed properly in the mbox for the list.  It is only the archive that is
affected.
