The message you're linking to talks about the structure of OpenPGP itself. Putting the signature outside of the encryption leaks a bunch of metadata that most people do not want to leak. Patrick's earlier response was: >>> If the message was signed and encrypted in one step, then the >>> signature will be removed as well. GnuPG does not have a >>> functionality to extract the signature from the encryption (which >>> would theoretically be possible). If the message was first signed >>> and then encrypted, then the signature will remain intact. Enigmail depends on GnuPG. Without GnuPG having that capability, enigmail won't be able to do this. I've recorded the missing feature on GnuPG's upstream bugtracker here, if you want to pursue it further: https://bugs.gnupg.org/gnupg/issue2958 Regards, --dkg
