% thanks for your help!

Note that when you tag-bounce all of the messages will go to the same
address.  If you have messges to Alice, Bob, and Carol and you tag them
all and hit ;b (or, if you have $auto_tag set, just b) and fill in Bob's
address, they will *all* go to Bob.

Since they're in a Maildir, you already have them separated (unlike
mbox).  It might be easiest to have a little for loop that goes thru the
dropped mails and re-hands each one INDIVIDUALLY to sendmail.

% Please send your messages pgp-signed or pgp-encrypted.

This may sound odd, coming from me (an always-signer), but why request
signed *or* encrypted?  I can see why you'd be interested in signed mail,
but that would be an all-the time thing.  Similarly, I can see why you'd
be interested in encrypted mail, but that also would be an all-the-time
thing.  The wording of your request makes it sound as though either
signing or encryption meets your needs.  If that's the case, then it
sounds as though you're just being a pgp/gpg advocate, which is good, but
which may need clarification for the rest of the world...
