In Mozilla Thunderbird 78.2, saved drafts are now encrypted by default when OpenPGP is enabled, encrypted email is now send even if the email address contains uppercase characters, and automatic signing for encrypted messages now works in more scenarios. Mozilla also improved OpenPGP’s Key Manager search function, which didn’t work in previous releases, updated the Key Properties dialog to no longer appear too small in same cases, and made the ???Key ID??? column resizable in the Key Manager.
