Thanks, this was exactly what I was looking for! Although, there seems
to be a pitfall regarding recipients that I don't have a public key
for: If I choose to skip the encryption when sending the message, it
will still be encrypted with my own public key, hence the recipient
won't be able to read it. In that case it's obviously better to remove
the encryption tag from the message body before sending.
