Ok, just installed v1.5.91 (what's in Debian's experimental
branch) and the PGP signature now validates, but the attached
emails still don't open.
But then, they are of type application/octet-stream, so I wouldn't
expect them to be able to be opened.
A test that I just completed works as expected, though.
Thanks.
