auto select "Require Encryption" not works

Hello,

I am using the new PGP functionality built into Thunderbird. I migrated all secrets from enigmail. When I send an email to a contact whose PGP key I have, Thunderbird does not enable the "Require Encryption" box.

Is this a bug ? Do I have to enable this box every time ?

This functionality doesn't exist yet in TB78. So for the time being you'll have to manually select 'Require Encryption'. There are plans for an opportunistic encryption mode in a future release.
