Hi all, I thank you all (Daniel, Ludwig, Anne, Olav) for your comments on my note re: the Details button. I'll think about some suggestions for improving the messages given by Enigmail when the 'Details' button is solicited and then file a bug report.
Anne - I should have added that I was using Windows 7 (not Linux). Ludwig - thank you for some of the additional info you provided. Olav - all languages have their little traps. I realise that enigmail generates the message but it is 'displayed in Thunderbird'. Thanks too for the tip about 'reload key cache' - I'll try that next time I import a key. Kleopatra does not need to be reloaded - the new key (downloaded through efforts of Enigmail) appears in Kleopatra before your eyes. Seasonal obligations mean that I'll need a little time to get back to you all.
