I have several Yubikeys and smartcards in my setup, each with its own

use the smartcard/Yubikey plugged into the system.

Which version of gpg are you using? If you are not using 2.3, then please
retry with gpg 2.3.1. Support for multiple smartcards was significantly
improved in 2.3.

Sorry I should have included that I am using version "gpg (GnuPG) 2.3.1 libgcrypt 1.9.3"


Is this still relevent with the built-in gpg stuff of TB?

According to https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:OpenPGP:Smartcards#Allow_the_use_of_external_GnuPG

Use the Thunderbird config editor (found at the bottom of preferences/options), and search for mail.openpgp.allow_external_gnupg. Switch the value to true.

Enabling this preference will cause Thunderbird to attempt to decrypt a message using GnuPG, whenever RNP fails to decrypt a message with the secret keys that are available inside Thunderbird's key storage.#

So I do not see why its not relevant if its just passing the stuff down to gpg.

Sincerely,

Brandon Anderson
