I've never seen a backup directory in the file system nor in the profiles. However, it was doing a backup every 5 minutes. (Draft mails go in a local drafts folder that presumably is stored the same way as any other mail folder. You can also view the folder from within TB, same as any other.) Further testing shows pretty well that the automatic backup is linked with a change in the settings in the Enigmail Encryption and Settings dialog box. Prior to the backup interval, only the sign check box was ticked. After the backup interval, the encrypt box was ticked and the sign box was blank. The message becoming encrypted may be a symptom of drafts being saved encrypted. This *ought* to be decoupled from whether or not the message is ultimately *sent* encrypted, but I'd believe a bug exists here. I might also believe that signing is the same way; probably the draft is not signed (that seems rather silly, after all). Again, this *ought* to be decoupled from how the message is finally sent, but... The change induced by Thunderbird seems to be one way only : sign - encrypt. It doesn't reverse itself back to 'sign only' after a further backup period. But if you reset to 'sign only', after another backup period, it flips again to encrypt.
