No, I'm using pure64. But I just ran an update and was able to install
enigmail, so I guess the change was made. Everything works fine now. :)

This is not an uncommon occurrence in Debian Sid. In general, if 
installation of
one package requires the removal of another, as yesterday's 
Mozilla-Thunderbird
required the removal of Enigmail, the most common problem is just that one
package was released a day or two before the other (but it could be weeks).

In most cases, the simplest strategy is to hold the upgrade until all 
dependent
packages are ready.

BTW I recommend wajig for managing packages.
 wajig newupgrade
 wajig install mozilla-thunderbird -s   (simulates to check for 
dependencies)
 wajig mozilla-thunderbird hold (keep current version -- later unhold)

Lots of good features and very well maintained on Debian by the developer.
