I'm guessing somewhat here, but seeing Attachment #1 with a type of
multipart/signed makes me think that the message you're verifying
might have come from a mailing list, like mailman, that adds a footer
and then changes the content-type of the message to multipart/mixed.
Is that guess at all close? If so, then there's your problem I think.
I could swear this was discussed here not long ago but I can't seem to
find the thread now. The bottom line is that this has been dealt with
in CVS. You now get a message in the status bar to the effect of:
"Warning: Part of this message has not been signed."
when you verify a message like this.
If that's not the issue, perhaps you could post the raw message
someplace so others could take a look at it to see if something stands
out.
