my setup

opensuse 12-1 on a medion notebook Akoya 6512

I want to install tbird with enigmail and so on... i have done the installation with yast:

  • tbird
  • enigmail via yast installed

gpg also via yast added

I ceated a mail account in tbird and wanted to start workin with tbird then i got the following message: the GPG-Agent-Application for your GnuPG-Version 2.0.18 could not get startet..

What does that mean?

do I need to have more things - the lib assuan-things. or should i add / offer some keys? do i need to proceed with

  • a. kgp
  • b. openPGP - which is a application of the enigmail

At which stage should i bring the keys that i have stored on a usb-stick into play?

Love to hear from you - I am almost lost with that enigmail stuff-

by the way - this might be of interest
