 Date:

 It seems that mutt insists on asking for a "PGP" passphrase even though
 I have it set up to use agpg from quintuple-agent, which does its own
 prompting when it needs to using a pop-up window, and remembers the
 passphrase and so on. So I guess there is no way to use mutt with
 q-agent. Mutt needs an option to make it sign mail but not bother with
 prompting for a passphrase or passing it to gpg.

Comment:

 Mutt supports using gpg-agent compatible agents, see $pgp_use_gpg_agent.
