i find it cumbersome to have to press a special key-combination every
single time i want to sign or encrypt an email. it is too easy to
forget, it is too easy to make a mistake. call me lazy if you want,
but i think that ease-of-use is a necessity for an 'extension' as PGP
to attract users (not too many of course, or PGP will be an illegal
'extension' before you know it!)
for myself, i do not think that i write email that contains enough
sekrits to warrant encryption (which is, in effect, impossible for a
list like this). for single receivers as well i find it really too
much trouble to encrypt messages. though it's nice to have the option,
of course.
i do like to sign my messages, as a gesture to the
receiver, so that he/she can check if he/she wishes that the
information in the message has not been tampered with. some people
complain about the signing, which proves that you can't please
everybody.
i am very happy that i just have to set an option which makes my
emails signed by default. a little more work at the beginning makes a
lot less work in the end.
that said; to each his own of course.

that was not what i was advocating nor what Andrew was suggesting.
since there is a plugin for 6.5.x however, this is really a moot point
:)
