I have just migrated from Thunderbird 68+Enigmail to 78. PGP is now integrated in TB, and it works just fine, with one exception: 

* I frequently want to send encrypted e-mail to some address first.last@company.de. 
* However, this company does not use personalised keys but rather a domain key associated with the address pgp@company.de. Enigmail was able to cope with this constellation.
* Now, Thunderbird tells me that there is no key available for first.last@company.de.

How can I make Thunderbird use the domain key? Does anyone know?

Best regards,

I don't think this is possible with TB78 right now. See this bug which is about adding the equivalent of Enigmail per-recipient rules to TB78 OpenPGP. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1644085

Don't hold your breath though.
