For others who are not subscribed to bunch of email threads: Here's the thread at enigmail detailing plans for the future https://admin.hostpoint.ch/pipermail/enigmail-users_enigmail.net/2020-May/005617.html And the news on their website https://enigmail.net/index.php/en/home/news/70-2019-10-08-future-openpgp-support-in-thunderbird And the general mailing list archive for other information https://admin.hostpoint.ch/pipermail/enigmail-users_enigmail.net/ Enigmail is like the only reason I use thunderbird, so I'm very sad :( Aisha > Landry >
