Enigmail add-on to Thunderbird is encrypting all emails, even when encryption is turned off.

edit window

I save the email as a draft, and when I view it in Drafts folder (or if it was sent), then it shows as blank and encrypted! I even restarted Thunderbird without luck.

drafts folder

Enigmail 1.8.2, Thunderbird 31.7.0

  • Does that recipient have an encryption key? If you do a draft email to some who you don't have a public key for, then that message will not be encrypted right?

  • No, the recipient does not have an encryption key.
