Admittedly, I don't use it daily, but there've been a handful of times
that it has been very nice to know only the intended recipient of a
message would be able to read it. For example, when sharing a password
with a fellow admin of a remote machine. There've been many more times
when I've tried to find a secure way of sharing information and not been
able to. Good MUA's make using GPG a snap, and by using it daily I don't
have to worry about only discovering a problem when I need it work
perfectly.

Configuration files should be hand coded C statically linked into 
the binary. If you can't write C, you have no business telling 
software what to do.
