GPG support is pretty much a given anymore with these clients. I would like to have talked about that a bit more, but this article was getting overly long as it was... Vanilla Sylpheed could use a little work (which Sylpheed-claws provides); the others pretty much handle it at this point.

I tend to disagree. There are vast differences in usability. I, for one
(being not entirely unbiased, of course), couldn't live without KMail's
"Automatically encrypt messages whenever possible" a.k.a. opportunistic
encryption.
