I don´t know why.

What happens when you try?

Please tell me
how can I export the  .asc file from /home/.gnupg?

If you have tried importing a key pair in Thunderbird, you must have
been able to export the pair first?!

To export a key pair from GnuPG, run these commands:

   gpg --export -a EMAILOFKEY > public.asc
   gpg --export-secret-keys -a EMAILOFKEY > secret.asc

where you put in the email associated with your key pair instead of
"EMAILOFKEY".

Then you can import the files public.asc and secret.asc in
Thunderbird.

                                 o o o

Conversely if you export a public key and a secret key from
Thunderbird, eg to files tb_public.asc and tb_secret.asc, you can
import them into GnuGP using:

   gpg --import tb_public.asc
   gpg --import tb_secret.asc

After your instructions I managed to import my key into Thunderbird.

I did it differently, not through the terminal, that´s why it didn´t work.



But in Gnus I didn´t succeed to decrypt this email.

What do you do to decrypt an email in Gnus?

thanks

Gottfried

When sending an encrypted email from gnus then it automatically opened in Thunderbird decrypted, because I have got now the keys in Thunderbird.
