 Another (completely unrelated) question I had was regarding the PGP
 support.  I've been using it for a while now, but I'd like to have
 some way to select a key for encryption automatically.  Well, it does
 already do that, but I still get a list of all the uids listed for the
 GPG key.  Selecting any of them works because gpg automatically
 selects the right key for encryption, but automatically having this
 done would be nice.  I immagine this could be done with a macro, but
 is there a cleaner solution?

I've posted about this in the past, and I don't think I've ever seen any
suggestions, macros, or workarounds for this problem ...  Even if you
specify the key-ID to use in a "pgp-hook", it _still_ gives you this
prompt, which seems bizarre ...

Yes, I've gone so far as to wrap the output of gpg so that only one
key show up as selectable, but most of the time mutt segfaulted.  I
didn't have enough time to look into it, so I'm not sure what I was
missing from the gpg output format to make mutt happy.

ttyl,
