    That is right. I once started to GPG sign list mails, then noticed that
    I did not really can control the cases where mailman as the list manager
    program destroyed the whole signed message and makes it unreadable.
    Lately I recognized that a new mailman handles GPG signed messages
    different: in Evolution I see a thin horizontal line between the
    signature icon and the list footer. So I thought that issue was fixed
    and I started again to sign my messages. Though, it was not fixed and I
    had to resend messages unsigned because the first message was destroyed.
    Some mail I send unsigned even the first time when I think it might be a
    candidate for the mailman bug.

    P.S. I send this one unsigned because I would like to get as much
    feedback to this topic as possible
