Inline PGP would be nice, a way to pipe to an external verify script
would do the job, too..

This is a good thing in my book.  There are plenty of good newsreaders
out there.  More importantly, I don't read news the way I read email and
so don't want the same things in the UI.  For example, I keep almost all
of my email, but almost never keep anything I read in news.

My only complaints with Evolution as an email client are speed (it takes
a long time to do some things) and a few minor quirks (for example,
filters with multiple actions often only execute the first action).

Thanks for the great work!
