You do not need to change alot, just notmuch emacs also doesn't need to
do anything special to allow for this.  Just add an

encrypt-to <keyid>

line to your ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf, where <keyid> is your personal keyid.
Then all encrypted data is also encrypted to your personal key, making
it always viewable by you as well.  Then you can just open your
encrypted sent mail as you would any other encrypted mail.

jamie.
