That can be several hours. My computer runs over night for a reason.

The only real solution there would be to disable the passphrase and
that should securitywise - alongside with a really large remember time
- - not be done because thats actually really bad.

My solution so far is killall thunderbird in the morning.

I would like to see more things like:
"if there is a popup open - don't open another one."

"if a mail just gets filtered through to a folder don't ask for the
passphrase" (the facebook mail)

I see ways how to bypass my problems and they are securitywise bad.

And i see possible improvements - in gpg-agent / pinentry and also
enigmail.

But it does not make sense to file a bug in any of the projects as
long as there is no consensus that this is actually a bad User
Experience decision where it could make sense to reconsider how things
work there.
