Me neither. I've been using it for years and this is the first issue
I've had. I'm not completely convinced that it's a problem with PGP
as I've had unsigned mail fail to send as well.

Case in point: I haven't signed this mail and I'm now adding this note
after it failed to send the first time).

Edit: And the second time.
Edit: And the third time.

Here's the output of the smtpd for a failed send (addresses changed to
protect the innocent):

I've inserted a line break where the timeout occurs. You can see that
Claws sends an initial DATA command but never sends anything beyond
that. Eventually the server gives up.
