Enigmail with icedove 31.7.0

Thu Sep 03, 2015 8:01 pm

Hi,
as we started to set up a raspberry pi2 as a low cost mail computer I was trying to get enigmail running with icedove 31.7.0
It says "... could not be installed, not compatible with 31.7.0"
Can I downgrade? Which version of icedove could work? Other ideas?

thx for your help, I'm lost

IF you have installed Raspbian Operating System:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install enigmail
This will also install a compatable version of IceDove from the Raspbian Repository, which I believe is 31.8 ;)

Yes, it's raspbian.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install enigmail
enigmail: no upgrade, is the most recent version
Icedove is still 31.7.0, "sudo apt-get install icedove" --> 31.7.0 is the most recent version.

What am I doing wrong? And where do I find enigmail / how can I test enigmail?

Sorry if I'm stupid, but I'm lost.

Did you originally install Enigmail from their website download or the Raspbian Repository ???

From Raspbian repository. I guess.
