Not a criticism, but a note:
 Appending to messages breaks GPG/PGP signatures on the body of messages, as 
the message body is then changed.

Basically, it's a problem with Outlook, that MS don't seem to care about 
correcting. So you're either stuck with the Outlook users problem, or the 
broken GPG/PGP signature problem. There is no clean and accepted way to 
handle it.
