Since you are using Linux I assume you have GnuPG loaded. I usually use a terminal to generate my keys and etc. gpg --gen-key I would generate a 4096 bit key and set up sub keys for signing and encrypting. If you want to use gmail with GnuPG at the present time it is difficult but you can use your mouse to copy an encrypted message into nano or your favorite editor and save as filename.asc. Then use gpg -d filename.asc to decrypt the message. I do not have an answer why the enigmail key generation wizard hung up. - -- Rev. LeRoy D.
