Regarding to security mails that were sent encrypted, should also be
stored encrypted. I know similar pseudo-issues using other MUAs and
sometimes another level of security is needed, IOW it would be ok to
sent mails encrypted, but then to store them decrypted, but for good
reasons this shouldn't be a default for any MUA. Why can't you decrypt
your own mails?
