It is not clear at all how to exchange encrypted emails with others.

I have to assume (not found in FAQ) that I would have to send my public
key to all people with whom I wish to exchange encrypted messages. And
need to know if this is sent before or after they have installed
compatible encryption software on their own computer.

However, I cannot "find" the Enigmail keychain dialogue (shown in the
site first steps) on my Mac in Thunderbird under the Enigmail drop-down
menu. But I did send my key to myself as the first test. I can find the
Enigmail Key Management dialogue, but it is different than shown in the
help site.

So - how to send public key to friends?

Second, I assume (again not in the FAQ) that friends will need to also
need to get the GPG plug-in/extension. But does that work in other email
applications such as Mac Mail, MS Outlook? What is the name of each
piece of encryption software needed for other than Thunderbird mail clients?

Thanks!
