thanks, abhilash, i will try to test these shortly and give you feedback
about icedove and notmuch at least, both of which are OpenPGP-enabled
(notmuch is native, icedove with the enigmail plugin).

Litmus appears to be about HTML rendering, which isn't what abilhash is
asking about at all.  If you know of a comparable service that provides
this kind of comprehensive feedback about cryptographic signatures, i'd
be very interested in learning about it.
