As already mentioned several times, I'll continue to support and maintain Enigmail 2.1.x for Thunderbird 68 for at least 6 months after the availability of Thunderbird 78. I might extend this for a few more months, but not more. > At this point, to continue using enigmail, I've frozen the updates on > my workstations.

In TB 78, the feature set will certainly be smaller than in Enigmail. But you I expect that future versions of Thunderbird will add more features to OpenPGP. -Patrick
