[PLUG] Mutt and Pine PGP compatibility


It would appear that Mutt, as of 1.4, can optionally parse the body of a
message for "traditional" PGP signatures which is a new feature for a
stable release (and since sometime in the 1.3 series; I'm using 1.3.28i
and I have this capability):

  - There's a new function, check-traditional-pgp, which is bound to
    esc-P by default.  It'll check whether a text parts of a message
    contain PGP encrypted or signed material, and possibly adjust
    content types.
(from http://www.mutt.org/changes.html)

It's not a perfect solution since Mutt remembers which messages are so
only while the folder containing them is still open, but it *does*
temporarily make the older form look the same in Mutt's display.
