@hyperbolic These are exactly my thoughts.

But when looking at a decrypted email, fully being able to read the text content, when I want to use the Menu option "Decrypt and Open" by right clicking on an attachment (pdf in this case), nothing happens. What I expect to happen: The pdf file being shown to me in the pdf viewer. Or some error being displayed, or maybe I am asked for my gpg passphrase again for additional security. When trying the option "Decrypt and save as", next I can select a folder and filename, (the pdf name without .gpg) and chose "save" - but when looking into that folder, there is no decrypted file. (I tried this plenty of time, I am sure its not there, and I did this action before the upgrade many times successfully). What I would expect: the attached file without the .gpg suffix (the filename proposed when opening the dialog, which I did not change) in the selected directory. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 20.10 Release: 20.10 $ apt-cache policy thunderbird thunderbird: Installed: 1:78.3.2+build1-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 1:78.3.2+build1-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 1:78.3.2+build1-0ubuntu1 500 500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu groovy/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1902801/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
