Same here. The PGP plug in was awful... (if it didn't find the key... and the key had to have the exact user-id you were mailing to) it sent it out in the clear. A serious bug.
Pegusus's current crypto hooks do not deal well with remailers and multiple keys. PGPMail does not deal with remailers as well as I would like, but it is far easier to use than the Pegusus solution.
Might be worth making suggestions to the Pegasus Mail team... now that PGPMail is out, they could 'modify' the plug-ins for Version 3.0 (which I hear they are working on). Since it's made in New Zealand, there's no ITAR/EAR problems. As for remailers, once crypto is plugged in, a remailer plug-in with would work. (That's possibly an easy-enough hack too.) An API for PGPMail you'd be a nice thing... then one can write apps to use it.
