Hi,

Assuming what you're looking for is PGP/MIME (the message itself is
unaltered, but it's sent as a multipart message, with the sig as an
attachment), here's how you do it:

* Enigmail menu > Advanced Preferences
* Mid-right is a frame labelled "Choose PGP/MIME Option"
* Select either "Allow PGP/MIME" or "Always use PGP/MIME"

I'm not sure what "Allow" means, but "Always use" is pretty clear.

One thing to consider is that if you're corresponding with Windows users,
they probably can't read PGP/MIME messages. Either the sig will be lost
(best case), or they will see a blank message (common case). There are very
few PGP/MIME compliant mailers for Windows (Moz/Engimail is an exception).

Peace,
  Eddie Roosenmaallen
