Version 1.99 of my Remail for Waffle actually does this: it checks if the recipient of the remailed message has a PGP public key, and if so, it encrypts the outgoing message, if it is not encrypted already. The remailers remail@vox.hacktic.nl and remailer@jpunix.com use this program. For testing you can also use remail@desert.hacktic.nl, or remailer@desert.hacktic.nl PAtrick
