Thunderbird + GPG / OS X
Hello,
Does anyone know of a good tutorial to integrate GPG and Mozilla Thunderbird on Mac OS X (10.4.9)? I have found some of one or the other, but not both.
TIA

Hello,
I have tried the steps suggested...
Installed MacGPG, configured GPG for OS X, but the hang-up occurs when I try to install the enigmail extension. Thunderbird returns an error that indicates the extension is incompatible with my version of Thunderbird (1.5.0.10).
Any ideas why?
Thx

What version of enigmail. The lastest version is Version 0.94.3.1 — April 2, 2007 — 519 KB - try this a see how it goes.
You could try this setup with the new beta thunderbird but you may find the extensions are not supported

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
Here is the link to DL TB beta 2. But I would advise exhausting the troubleshooting notes provided above on TB ver 1.5 before trying the new beta as it may not work and I could find no confirmation either that this will resolve the issue either.

I have to wait for an updated build of enigmail, for now I am using last build's version. So, yes, I did find a solution and it is working.
