C-u M-x epa-mail-sign

should do that, which is not described in the docstring nor in the
manual. Thereʼs an epa-mail-mode minor mode as well with more
convenient bindings for the signing and encrypting commands.

Iʼd recommend message-mode and mml-secure-sign-pgp, but that has other
annoying bugs in its unconfigured state that I haven't fixed yet.
