I'm confused. I'm using TB v 68.11.0 (64 bit) for Windows 10 and it
reports as the latest. Have i missed a large series of upgrades?
You haven't.
Although Thunderbird 78 was released two months ago, we have recommended
that all Enigmail users should continue to use Thunderbird 68 for
another while.
The reason for waiting is: Thunderbird 78 can no longer be used with
Enigmail. Instead, Thunderbird 78 will have integrated support for
OpenPGP. However, that new code wasn't ready yet, so we have recommended
that users wait.
For this reason, we have not yet enabled automatic updates from 68 to 78.
Please continue to wait until Thunderbird 68 will automatically suggest
you to upgrade to 78.
Please also see my other email about how Thunderbird 78 will behave
differently than Enigmail.
Regards
Kai
