I'm being forced to conclude that the answer is no.

I found an example e-mail from a hushmail user which was signed.  All
such e-mails include a trailer stating that the signature may be
verified at https://www.hushtools.com/ .

So I went to the site, wondering how this was going to work.  I'm
still waiting for the "applet" to load.  I also see the following
message:

"Keep in mind that you must sign in before signing or decrypting
data."  That would seem to imply that you would have to have an
account with hushmail before you could decrypt anything sent to you
from a hushmail user.

And I'm still waiting for that applet to load so I can see if I can
even verify the key.
