I've just started using mailvelope, which works with several webmail providers and also has a firefox extension:

It looks like Mailvelope only supports RSA encryption (up to 4096bit), not any of the other types of algorithms for PGP. It lists RSA/RSA and RSA/ElGamal but doesn't allow me to select them. Can someone who knows their shit about encryption chime in as to whether that's sufficient?
