    Hey people. 

    Someone recently brought the subject of X.509 Certs to my attention,
mentioning that I might find better interoperability with the windows
world if my digital signatures were X.509 instead of PGP. I know little
about this, beyond support being available through Mozilla, and
apparently openssl hooks for MUAs like Mutt. 

    Anyone care to comment and enlighten me? 

    Mike
