Using PGP 8.0.3, I pull up the PGP mail tray and use the "Sign" option by
itself, not the encrypt and sign option.

I'm guessing you are talking about command line usage, but just in
case:

If in Windows, just place all the files you want signed in one
folder. Then in Windows Explorer, right click on the folder, and
select PGP|Sign. After entering your passphrase, each file will be
individually signed.

If you are only concerned with checking that the file arrived
accurately, then maybe checking the md5 hash on both sides will
suffice.
