Mutt.

It handles PGP/MIME signatures (RFC 3156) correctly, and if I
feel the need to verify your inline sig, I can easily just paste the
entire message into a:

gpg --verify

In fact, I could even write a function in Mutt to verify such
signatures automatically. But why should I go to such effort. Let
those who have no RFC 3156 support in their broken MUA deal with my
standards-compliance, and it I absolutely *need* to verify their sig,
I can do so without too much hassle.
