Don't know about mutt but if you are using vi as your editor then the following
maps will work:

to encrypt:

 map ;e :%!/bin/sh -c 'pgpe -fast -r   2>/dev/tty' 

to sign:

 map ;s :%! /bin/sh -c 'pgps -fat +clear 2>/dev/tty'

I use vim and pgp 5 - minor and obvious modifications are requred for these to
work on pgp 2.6.  The space after the -r in the encryption map is where you enter
the recipients email address.  One important safety proviso: save your file
before using the maps - they do work but you never know.

The above are modifications from Sven Guckes vimrc available at:
