Hi Weitenma!
In general terms, you'll see pkcs#12 along with X.509 (certs) and S/MIME. These 3 typically are grouped together and are different than PGP.
(Yes, you *can* put X.509 certs in PGP but it's not done very much and I don't think it's what you're asking for IMO).
Typically, PGP can either be done "in-line" your Mozilla mail or it can be PGP/MIME - again, it's different than S/MIME.
The quickest way to get up-and-running with PGP in Mozilla/Thunderbird products is to check out Enigmail (http://enigmail.mozdev.org).
Best wishes with your experiences!
Wren
