You're welcome. I'm not that up on Tbird. I used it briefly a long time
ago on another Gentoo box but didn't like it so I went to Pine and I did
not use encryption either. The only other install has been on a windows
box that I used when both my Gentoo boxes were dead. When I get my main
box back up I intend to use Tbird.
Run ufed as root and see what flags there are or check the gentoo site -
they have a list.
Let us know how it goes.

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?

To me it depends on what you want/need/like. 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.

gnome installs mozilla by default, which has browsing, news, and mail.
How
does this stack up against Firefox? I've seen a lot of press about using
one or the other, but I'm trying to get a feel for why. Is one better
suited to Gentoo than the other?
(This particular box is used primarily for business apps and remote
webserver/site tweaking when needed).
Thanks for the input.
