I know this doesn't help you now, but the author has stated that he will
add MIME support. As for PGP, see
http://www.ollie.clive.ia.us/jeff/python/anysign/ for a decent method of
signing messages from slrn. Unfortunately, that's the only pgp feature it
supports.

All keystrokes are configurable, so this shouldn't be a problem.
See /usr/doc/slrn/examples/slrn.rc.gz for examples.
