I appreciate unchecked PGP Mime should have no bearing but it is the only way I 
can get it to decrypt once and stay available for 15 minutes.
Thunderbird version 31.3.4
Enigmail 1.7.2

If I do not do this it challenges me for the pass phrase every time I click on 
the email and does not allow the 15 minutes time period
