<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">I use enigmail with thunderbird 60.3.1 on win7. Enigmail asks me
regularly for the passphrase via pinentry since I sign my mails. What I
have noticed is that
1. the pinentry windows pops up.
2. I engage the passwordsave program to copy the passphrase
3. I try to use alt-tab to refocus on pinentry.
4. Mostly I go not to pinentry but to thunderbird. The focus on
pinentry is lost. That focus had to be reestablished by manual
manipulation.
I think this is a bug. It would like to know where the bugreports of
enigmail can be placed.

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Enigmail bugs could be reported here:

<b class="moz-txt-star"><span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span>However<span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span></b> this is not a bug in Enigmail. Pinentry is a component of
GnuPG or gpg4win. Enigmail does not open pinentry, nor can it control
its focus. In other words, Enigmail does not ask you for your passphrase
- that's fully controlled by GnuPG.
