Let me put it in my words:
You would like to have a OpenPGP -> Preferences -> Key Selection setting to
"encrypt emails automatically if Enigmail has a public key for each recipient".
If there is no public key for any of the recipients, then Enigmail shall send
an unencrypted email. At no point ought the user be prompted for anything.
The setting whether to sign or not to sign by default can remain as it is now.
I have good news for you: just switch to "No manual key selection", and switch
on "Sign unencrypted messages by default", "Sign encrypted messages by default"
and "Encrypt messages by default" in the account's OpenPGP settings.
Olav
