I don't know if anybody has looked ..  but the latest version of the Horde
projects IMP webmail app, that we use here at burngreave.net ( and by
corrollary for web access to aktivix email ) has support for PGP and S/Mime
signing and encryption.

Though .. the thought of carrying responsiblity for maintaining and supporting
digital signatures and identities for all is putting me off enabling it.
