 For encryption, I have;

# Setup my options for GnuPG
set pgp_autosign                # pgp sign every outgoing mail.  (send-hook?)
send-hook . set pgp_autosign
send-hook ilug unset pgp_autosign
send-hook social unset pgp_autosign
send-hook webdev unset pgp_autosign
unset pgp_autoencrypt           # pgp encrypt every outgoing mail.  (send-hook?)
set pgp_create_traditional=no   # Use old-style PGP? (don't do it!)
set pgp_replyencrypt            # Encrypt replies on encrypted mail
set pgp_replysign               # Sign replies on signed mail
set pgp_replysignencrypted      # Sign replies on encrypted mail
unset pgp_retainable_sigs       # disable retainable signatures.
set pgp_verify_sig=yes          # ask me whether I want to check a pgp signature
set pgp_timeout=7200            # forget PGP passphrase after 7200 seconds (=2 hours)
set pgp_sign_as="0xACC6AD68"    # UserID/KeyID for signing
set pgp_strict_enc              # allway use QP enc. with PGP.
unset pgp_long_ids              # display 64bit PGP key-ids (don't change this!)
set pgp_show_unusable           # show unusable PGP keys in menu
#set pgp_sign_micalg=pgp-md5     # pgp-md5 for RSA-Keys. (pgp-sha1, pgp-rmd160)
set pgp_entry_format="%4n %t%f %[%y/%m/%d] %4l/0x%k %-4a %2c %u"
set pgp_sort_keys=trust

 Add me to that....

 I'll try this script, and if it works, I hearily endorse this event or
product.
