Hi everyone, I'm new to both PGP and Thunderbird. I've installed the client on my Mac, latest release, 78.3.3 I've generated my own PGP keys and imported into Thunderbird. When I try to import a public key from a sender, to enable encryption with him, simply the option is not available (see screenshot 1) If I try to open an .asc key, thunderbird asks me to open it as key and add it to openPGP, but after confirmation, a "Null" error popup is shown, and the key is not imported.
