hm, it works for me with enigmail 2:1.8.2-3 and gnupg 2.1.6-1. Is it
possible that you've got some odd combination of
pinentry/gpg-agent/desktop-environment or something?
dpkg -l 'pinentry*' 'gnupg*' gcr
Are you able to encrypt/decrypt/sign from the gpg command line?
also: decrypt and sign are secret key operations, which would implicate
the agent (and possibly pinentry). But it looks like you're suggesting
that encrypting is also broken, which is a public key operation.
Feel free to try sending me an encrypted, unsigned mail personally (key
fingerprint 0EE5BE979282D80B9F7540F1CCD2ED94D21739E9) if you want to
test the public-key-only operations with enigmail.
hope to help get this sorted out,
