This is a fragment of that file:

Its obvious, that KMail has some special format for a message. I like KMail, 
but what if one day I'll need to read and verify that historical message with 
plain gpg and text editor? I ask also because I am about to set up some 
mailing lists and it seams necessary, that, having plaintext 
* pub key
* message
* subscription
one should be able to assert. I haven't tried yet, do you know how to do it?
