First, take a look at TkPGP
http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Chip/3708/tkpgp/tkpgp.htm
an oldie but a goodie that still works with the latest GnuPG.

However, if you are using Sylpheed, the latest versions of Sylpheed and
Sylpheed-Claws finally support ASCII armored signatures and encryption.
Feel free to contact me off list if you need the specific Sylpheed account
settings.
