|

| thunderbird (/usr/lib/thunderbird) folder.  You want enigmail
| installed in your ~/.thunderbird folder.
|
| Once enigmail is installed, you can specify specifically what key
| you want used with each email account by clicking on the email
| account and then view settings then OpenPGP.

That advice is contrary to the conventional wisdom, which is to use
the same method to install Enigmail that you use to install
Thunderbird (i.e., apt-get + apt-get, or manually + manually). Can you
please explain your reasoning here?
