You can use kmail and gpg to send encrypted or digitally signed mail. To do this, there are the buttons "sign" and "encrypt" in the kmail compose window. It appears if you click on "File|New|New message".
First make sure your gpg is properly set up:
gpg --list-keys
Check that
gpg --update-trustdb
does not deliver
gpg: no ultimately trusted keys found
If you have a keyring saved to your disk, reload ("import") it like this:
cat secring.skr | gpg --import
Then call kgpg and set your trust on this key to ultimate.
