Hi,
Anthony Papillion:
> Hello Everyone,
> Is Thunderbird safe to use with Tor?
Use TorBirdy -- Torbutton for Thunderbird [0]. Do read the installation
notes before using it [1].
>From the 0.0.13 release notes [2]:
"It's still quite experimental - of course. Use at your own risk and
especially if you're using it with Enigmail and GnuPG without a local
HTTP proxy."
> Also, what about EnigMail and GnuPG?
[2]:
TorBirdy now enforces the safest HTTP proxy usage possible with GnuPG
TorBirdy attempts to disable all name resolution in GnuPG due to a
serious SOCKS5 problem with GnuPG proxy options in how we invoke
GnuPG; GnuPG only supports SOCKS5 when it is linked against libcurl
(>7.21.7) and hostnames are not used. This is outlined the
following bug:
