Research direction

Read the related issues #540 and #1462 to understand the existing incoming email decryption support and how it relates to outgoing email. The issue proposes PGP encryption for outgoing email but names no files, tests, or implementation entry point; done means outgoing messages can be encrypted with PGP.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement P2-high

Describe the solution you'd like
Support for encryption of outgoing email using e.g. PGP.

This would complement and complete the already implemented support for decryption of incoming email in Runbox 7.
