Composing ask From: address and arbitrary keys in PGP

[Ryan Smith]

The identity macro does work, but it will not work for setting custom header in composing new emails as hdr is set before about sending emails.

I tried gpgme which does not seems to give me any option to select self encrypt key based on From: , but always use default key

Can you illustrate more on how to select signing key based on From: in gpgme? gpgme seems also only uses default key as sign as if you have multiple accounts and different for keys for each account.

I use this, in muttrc:

# my identities
macro compose v "<edit-from>^Uidentity_<Tab>" "Select from"

alias identity_a0 tech-lists <tech-lists at zyxst.net>
alias identity_a1 someotheraddress <somethingelse at zyxst.net>

[...etc...]

and use v then hit tab to get a selectable list. This selected when
about to send the email. I'm unsure what the proper name for that part
of mutt is.

I use gpgme which selects the signing key based on From:
