Brett~ Thanks for the reply. I did find some additional information about these that tells me I should be using Firefox and Thunderbird... The USE flags on portage for thunderbird don't require gnupg, but I noticed in Mozilla mail that in order to use encrypted mail, Mozilla mail wanted it. Is there a gnupg USE flag that will emerge Thunderbird with this feature built-in?

I don't like Mozilla because it has everything in one package. I like to be able to use Firefox as the browser and other programs for news and mail.
