I select Write to create a message, then in "Options" there is a drop down that has options to select Encryption and Digitally signing. I select Encryption and then click the "Enigmail" and there is a drop down that says "Message will be encrypted" If you click that you have the option to "Force Encryption" and that seems to be the only way I can send encrypted messages. > > > and move to Enigmail > > You refer to the menu here?

Don't understand the question. However, I have a personal and public key and have the public keys for the people I am sending to. and these show up in the list when I click Key management. > > > The key is also in the "Per recipient rules" > > OK.
