I just found a pretty easy way to deal with encryption of webmail.  GPA (GNU Privacy Assistant) has a "clipboard" button that will let you type in a message and then hit the "encrypt" and/or "sign" button.  You can then copy and paste the output into an email.  Similarly, you can copy and paste an encrypted/signed email into the clipboard and "verify" and/or "decrypt" it.
