But does it have support for smartkeys? You know, like it use to prior to thunderbird 78. Huge regression dropping support for enigmail plugin and gnugpg for some built in solution that's half complete and as far as I'm aware doesn't support smartcards like yubikey. So crummy.
You, you can use smartcards with OpenPGP, if you configure Thunderbird for optional GnuPG support. This way Thunderbird can use your secret key that is managed by GnuPG, for secret key operations, including keys on smartcards.
