Thanks for the reply.  I have tried various options for pgp_verify_sig.

Setting pgp_verify_sig to "no", a signed message appears as:

   [-- Attachment #1 --]
   [-- Type: text/plain, Encoding: quoted-printable, Size: 0.5K --]
   
   body of the message
   
   [-- Attachment #2 --]
   [-- Type: application/pgp-signature, Encoding: 7bit, Size: 0.2K --]
   
   [-- application/pgp-signature is unsupported (use 'v' to view this part) --]

So my question is: is there a way to tell mutt that I am not interested
in seeing pgp signature-related material at all?

Mutt already allows user-control on the display of headers:

   ignore *
   unignore from date to cc bcc reply-to subject 

It would be nice to give the user additional control on display of PGP
signatures, as in:

   set pgp_ignore="yes"

Alas, mutt does not seem to have such a configuration option.
