Why do you still use Mailcrypt?

I have set `gnus-buttonized-mime-types' to '(".*/signed").  When I hit
RET on the button in
<URL:nntp://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.leafnode.announce/15>, it
verifies correctly.  A second RET gives:

Hm, how are users who don't have ".*/signed" in
`gnus-buttonized-mime-types' supposed to verify the signature?
Do `K m' first?

Ah, `W s' (or <menu-bar> <Article> <MIME> <Verify and Decrypt>)
probably...
