TB trunk (aka 3.0a2pre right now) together with Enigmail trunk is broken
since several months, at least on the Mac. Every some weeks I'll test
this combination to see how much progress the TB development has
experienced, but so far no success.

There is a red warning on

This should say enough. When you are testing nightly builds of TB then
one should be aware that anything can happen, including data corruption
in the TB profile. This is why I use this combination only within a test
account with a test profile. My mails and my general TB setup are too
valuable for me to risk losing them.


Greetings
