That brings up query for using Engimail with ThunderbirdPortable.  It
want the gpg binaries in Apps/gpg dir and the keyrings in Data/gpg.  Am
I to assume the gpg.conf should be with the keyrings (Data/gpg)?

Secondly I wonder if since my key is 1024 bit DSA that limits the algo
usable to say sha1, md5, etc?  Saw a note about "--enable-dsa2" option,
not all applications support this yet. Given latency of the net; is this
note still very relevant or just slight relevant?
