I'd recommend you look at the master branch of Enigmail. It doesn't
require any DLL anymore.


OK, which versions does master support? I'm currently using TB 31.8.0 
and SM 2.28pre, hopefully 38 and 2.35 soon.

Curious me. May I ask why? I used OS/2 for a while but IBM stopped
supporting OS/2 Warp in December of 2006.

And since Enigmail is a Thunderbird extension and Thunderbird uses many
files, the executable is thunderbird.exe (11.3) for example, that do not
your fit the 8.3 file name format I would think that Thunderbird would
not run either? Perhaps not even install.


Only the DLLs are limited to 8.3, everything else is fine as long as 
installed on a file system that supports long names. A couple of TB DLLs 
do need a shortname variant.
