Thanks David. I've just pulled and rebuilt and can see a difference. When
replying from show view, I see no quoted text from the original message,
but when I reply from search view I see the inline PGP ciphertext quoted
in the reply. I can understand the latter but not the former - this still
looks like a bug, especially since if I reply from show view to a plain
text encrypted message, I do see the original message quoted in the reply.
