Currently this is restricted to PGP keys in the keyring;[1] I remember
discussing opening this to all things which looked like they contained
a PGP signature, but I don't remember if we got consensus about that.
I *do* remember droping in a spamassassin rule to avoid false
positives for mails which look like they had a PGP signature. [I don't
know if the implementation of sigcheck we have on liszt knows how to
figure out if a signature is valid without a keyring containing the
key...]
