I  would  support this. Once I sent a PGP mail to my friend, he forgot
his  password. In his reply he sent a new PGP key, asked me to rewrite
the  mail. I told him forget it, and removed all PGP stuff from my TB!
I know it is useful, but not having a backup from my PGP sent mails is
not good for me.

You should not encrypt until you are sure that you have the final
form. You cannot decrypt the mail w/o the private key.

It is available only with the private key... That you should not have
:)))

Phuhh... I would like to support to have the clear text of the sent
mail, but reediting an encrypted mail is not possible. How should I
support this wish?
