If all verifiers other than this one are passing your signature, my guess
is that this particular one is either broken or has something in the way
that's modifying messages before verification.

You can do things like set Diagnostics or KeepTemporaryFiles on your side
and send a test message, then analyze what gets received and look for
thigns that might have changed in transit. That's about as much as I can
suggest without knowing more about the verifier that's running on the
receiver side.
