Good to hear, and welcome to the PGP Community. :o)

Freeware or Payware? PGP is available in both flavours and in versions
6.5.8 and 7.0.4. What are your security needs? Do you currently have a
Firewall? If not, be advised that PGP 7.0.4 has a very good rules-based
Firewall along with an IDS (Intrusion Detection System), but they are only
available in the payware version.

Good choice of Mail Client BTW. ;o) At this moment, there is no PGP Plugin
for any of the 7.x versions, freeware or payware. However, from what I've
read, there is a current problem with the PGP Plugin (which *had* worked
nicely with both NAI and the CKT builds of PGP) surfacing in the latest
Beta's. I see you are using Beta 7. :o(
As for the freeware side PGP 6.5.8/7.0.3 you can choose the NAI version,
or the CKT version, but the only CKT version available is 6.5.8. The CKT
version is more feature rich than the NAI offering, and includes (but is
not limited to) a greater choice of Symmteric Algorithms and I do believe
offers PGP Disk.
Here are the URL's where you can download/read about both:
http://www.ipgpp.com/ for the CKT build of PGP 6.5.8
http://www.pgpi.org/products/pgp/versions/freeware/ for the NAI versions.
