Interesting,

If you look at the PGP signature, looks like they hit keys on the home row 
of the keyboard and added some numbers for good effect. Doesn't look like a 
"real" pgp key.

Sometimes MSN E-mail will indicate that the mesasge failed to be delivered. 
Please resend when you get those, it does not mean that the mail box is bad, 
merely that MSN mail is over worked at the time.

Otherwise, hope things are going well.
