is there a users manual or something? I have looked up pgg info and cant
find any "encrypt message" - only encrypt region. I cant write
lisp. Also, mailcrypt allows a prefix argument to change gpg-user-id :
how would I do that using pgg?

But since mailcrypt uses gpg I see no reason not to use it : its well
documented and easy to use.

I would use pgg : but it seems like one of those things where a deeper
knowledge of lisp and emacs hacking than I possess :(
