Mutt is capable of signing in the old style and the method is detailed
in the file PGP-Notes.txt which is part of Mutt's documentation:
Q: "I don't like that PGP/MIME stuff, but want to use the
old way of PGP-signing my mails. Can't you include
that with mutt?"
No. Application/pgp is not really suited to a world with
MIME, non-textual body parts and similar things. Anyway,
if you really want to generate these old-style
attachments, include the following macro in your ~/.muttrc
(line breaks for readability, this is actually one line):
macro compose S "Fpgp +verbose=0 -fast
+clearsig=on\ny^T^Uapplication/pgp; format=text;
x-action=sign\n"
