<P>Many of the files have been digitally signed using GnuPG.  If so, 
there will be an accompanying <SAMP><EM>file</EM>.asc</SAMP> signature
file in the same directory as the file (binaries/ or source/).  The
signing keys can be found in the distribution directory at &lt;<A
HREF="http://www.apache.org/dist/james/KEYS"><SAMP>http://www.apache.org/dist/james/KEYS</SAMP></A>&gt;.</P>
<P><b>Always download the KEYS file directly from the Apache site, never from a mirror site.</b></P>


<PRE>Always test available signatures, <i>e.g.</i>,
$ pgpk -a KEYS
$ pgpv james-2.3.0.tar.gz.asc
or,
$ pgp -ka KEYS
$ pgp james-2.3.0.tar.gz.asc
or,
$ gpg --import KEYS
$ gpg --verify james-2.3.0.tar.gz.asc
