In addition to these requests, I'd also suggest that it be possible to
select which of multiple keys a given correspondent uses as their
default. I have at least two keys of my own (and no way to easily select
which one is used for signing although PMMail 2K does it a bit better
than PMMail/2 which can't select at all) and many of those I correspond
with have many keys of which I have copies on my key ring for various
reasons.
I did request this some years ago, but BoB and Ikon never took my
comments on board and neither have BSW.
