Top posting is where you put your comments to an email at the top of the
reply.  Unlike mine where you can read what you said and then my
comments below.

Opengroupware doesn't seem to implement it right now:
http://bugzilla.opengroupware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=218

However if you head on over to www.gnupg.org there are details of front
ends for the most popular clients including Evolution:

BTW: Once you do start sending signed emails don't forget to put your
public key onto a key server so that others can verify who you are, but
you can read all about that on http://www.gnupg.org/
