As per those instructions, as well as the graphic included in your mail
which I also received via notification from Enigmail within Thunderbird,
I need (it would be really nice), for peace of mind, if I have a bit
more info regarding this...

1.) I'm currently running TB v68.9.0 according to Help ==> About, with
the added information relating that: "You are currently on the release
update channel.

2.) I'm using GNUPG, NOT OpenPGP, and considering everything else, would
prefer to stay with that and Enigmail rather than migrate away from
Enigmail and GNUPG, as I use other things that depend upon GNU Privacy
Guard. I'm sure they'll coexist, but I've got no desire to add cruft to
my systems.

Q: With consideration to the information about my setup, Am I currently
configured to be able to just sit back and forget about it, allowing TB
to upgrade 72.2 to automatically? Or do I need to disable something?

Thanks :)

Kindest regards,
