in ~/.muttrc put:
set pgp_autosign
^ thats all you really need
these might also be usefull:
set pgp_encryptself
set pgp_replyencrypt
set pgp_replysign
as for checking signatures, it does that by default.

it can move read mail, I forgot how though, look at the documentation..
these options might also be usfull:
folder-hook . set sort=date-sent <- default sorting
folder-hook *Linux-Kernel* set sort=threads <- any folders matching *blah*
are sorted by tread
folder-hook *Bugtraq* set sort=threads
folder-hook *debian* set sort=threads
set record="=sent-mail" <- copies mail you send to this
folder
set nomark_old <- prevents that (for me) annoying O mark on
messages you've seen but not read
pgpl6dFLSYSlr.pgp
Description: PGP signature
