Can't you sign it with just a signature? That is, something which goes at the bottom of the email? The line at the top is completely pointless - if I care about whether or not an email is signed, I'll scroll down to the bottom where I would expect to find the signature. A correctly formatted signature can be hidden by most email clients, I believe, then you wouldn't be annoying anyone.
The Point of the PGP sign is to verify that it was indeed from the sender and not modified. Anyone can spoof a sig.
I mean a PGP sig, but as an actual sig, not something at the top of the email that serves only to annoy people.
