The mails that you send from your Debian system using Evolution

just fine by Enigmail (which uses gnupg-1.4.9 internally, ie. a "new"
version) even without any of the "--rfc2440" or "--rfc2440-text" parameters.
I think Evolution doesn't use the --textmode (or similar) parameters
at all, so it doesn't matter which gpg version is used. So this could
probably be solved by dropping the --textmode parameter from GPGMail's
gpg call.
Mutt, OTOH, using the very same gnupg-1.4.9 that Enigmail uses
internally, is perfectly happy and able to verify the signatures from both
Evolution and Apple Mail, without any additional parameters modifying gpg's
default behaviour.
That's weird. :)
