# What do you need
This depends on your OS. You should also read my previous guide, which was about GPG.
This depends on your OS. You should also read my previous guides about GPG and Icedove / Thunderbird.
## Debian based distributins
You need at least packages icedove or thunderbird and enigmail, but I recommend you to install gnupg2 and pinentry packages too.
> aptitude install thunderbird enigmail gnupg2 pinentry-curses pinentry-gtk2 pinentry-qt4
NOTE: In Debian Thunderbird is called Icedove and the package is icedove.
## Mac OS X
You need PGP-tools, Thunderbird and Enigmail
## Windows
You need GPG4Win, Thunderbird and Enigmail.
# Running the Enigmail wizard.
If Enigmail wizard doesn't appear by itself, open it manually from OpenPGP (menu) --> Enigmail wizard.
NOTE: Allow wizard to do changes, which it wants.
## Enable viewing messages in original HTML.
instructions here
## If the wizard fails
Write with computer
## Sending UTF-8
Write to Icedove / Thunderbird guide.
# Testing that everything works
Write about Adele
# Sending PGP/MIME instead of PGP/INLINE
I personally don't recommend this, because of my reasons. PGP/MIME puts the signature to signature.asc attachment and PGP/INLINE into "mess" in the bottom of email.
