I have done some research and my working theory is that digitally signed messages cannot be quoted-printable. Is this correct? In that case the problem is that when I include Swedish signs in a message, emacs sets the content-transfer-encoding to quoted-printable which screws up the signature. When I send it through an MTA that converts the content-transfer-encoding from quoted-printable to 8bit everything becomes ok again. What I have to do then is to make sure that emacs sets the content-transfer-encoding to 8bit whenever I send a digitally signed message. There is a variable called `mm-content-transfer-encoding-defaults' but I feel that I do not enough about this yet.
