To clarify, it's the exclamation point ("!") that forces GPG to use a
specific key. Normally GPG will pick what it thinks is the appropriate
key, but the exclamation point will override that automatic choice and
use only the key ID specified by the user.
I'm not aware of any email clients that allow such an override -- it's
typically only used in the command line.

has some more details.

Specifically, that information is available at
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4880#page-62>, in sections 9.1 through
9.4, inclusive.
