Starting with version 78, Thunderbird has a built-in PGP feature. Starting with version 78, Thunderbird has a built-in PGP feature and no longer requires the Enigmail extension. For users coming from the Enigmail extension, the built-in functionality is more limited currently, including that **public keys must live in your `work-email` qube with Thunderbird rather than your offline `work-gpg` qube**.
In `work-email`, 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. Still in config editor, search for `mail.openpgp.alternative_gpg_path`. Set its value to `/usr/bin/qubes-gpg-client-wrapper`. Restart Thunderbird after this change.
