Really?

Even if my case is easier (I do read email on the same machine where
I've my private key) I process them in batch. I use this very simple
procmail rule to store in a different mailbox the keys received from
caff:

  :0
  * ^Subject: Your signed PGP key
  .signed-keys/

Then from time to time (1 month after a keysigning is usually a good
time frame) I open the mailbox with my MUA (which is mutt). Then I tag
all messages, and do CTRL-K. At the end I run, just once, "gpg
--send-key KEYID".

I guess in your setup you just need to add a rsync step to retrieve
mailbox / maildir.

Hope this helps,
Cheers.
