Um. Yes. That's what I meant. I swapped out Icedove and Iceweasel for
Thunderbird and Firefox for varying reasons, but the primary one was the
much older version numbers for stable (6.0.6 - I can remember numbers
better than which Toy Story character version I'm running) than what I
could find on mozilla.org and I had no menu icons for OpenPGP - which I
do now.

I'm hoping that I am able to upgrade hardware soon - this box is getting
kinda old and tired - and I may have to try Icedove again... but
sometimes I want it to just work. I will certainly let you know if and
what is broken or doesn't work for me assuming the upgrade isn't too far
into the future.
