For your interest, I added a --mutt option.
This allows to send multiple mails and to sign them properly.

If you are not using mutt, there is a --postpone option, which will
produce a mailbox. Your mailer may be able to use it.

Thus I'm dropping the help tag (the bug was also tagged pending a few
minutes ago).

Kind Regards,
