*NOTE*: With default settings, [Split GPG is currently incompatible with TorBirdy](https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/1024). You either a)
every time you start icedove to do the following
([Because TorBirdy does not store these settings.](https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/13430))
icedove -> Preferences -> Advanced -> under `Additional Parameters of gnupg` -> remove `--keyserver-options no-auto-key-retrieve,no-try-dns-srv,http-proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8118`
or b) create `user.js` file permanently storing this.
[user@work ~]$ echo 'user_pref("extensions.torbirdy.custom.extensions.enigmail.agentAdditionalParam", "--no-emit-version --no-comments --display-charset utf-8");' >> ~/.icedove/*.default/user.js
The disadvantage of b) is, that you will not receive updates of the setting
`extensions.torbirdy.custom.extensions.enigmail.agentAdditionalParam` should TorBirdy developers
decide to modify that setting. Either not care about this or try to remember, when TorBirdy is
updated to check if that setting has changed as per TorBirdy defaults. (You could look into
`~/.icedove/*.default/prefs.js`.)
