Sure, why would Thunderbird support smartcards.

@vbabka @oleksandr this is kind of funny as down the company heritage line, before all the mergers and whatnot, this is indeed the company that brought javacard into this world

@vbabka I managed to sign one email already, but not sure if I did this correctly. Is there an up-to-date instruction on pairing TB with GnuPG?

@oleksandr uh I think it pretty much worked out of the box here (I was surprised) as I had already gpg set up and agent running etc for git and ssh. The end to end encryption part of IMAP account config in TB says "Thunderbird found 1 personal OpenPGP key associated with vbabka@suse.cz" and it's selected as External GnuPG key below,

@vbabka That's probaly what I did but this required enabling mail.openpgp.allow_external_gnupg in about:config.

@oleksandr oh it's possible I've forgot about doing that step at some point. TBH I got it running as soon as TB implemented the native support (been using the enigmail extension before), but rarely use it there.
