Enigmail is an add-on to the mail client of Mozilla Thunderbird and SeaMonkey allwing users to access the authentication and encryption features provided by GnuPG. Thus Enigmail enables Mozilla Thunderbird and SeaMonkey to send and receive digitally signed and/or encrypted messages using the OpenPGP standard.
In order to provide the crypto-features, Enigmail requires GnuPG to be installed. We currently recommend GnuPG version 1.4.9 and/or 2.0.9.
