Enigmail 2.2.4.2

Sorry, I'm heavily confused right now with this add-on. Everywhere I go, I read enigmail is not supported with thunderbird anymore, because of the build in OpenPGP functionality. It's even written on the enigmail website, also there are several threads in the forum mentioning there is no support with thunderbird 78+ and no intends to do so in the future. Yet here is this addon in Version 2.2.4.1 claiming it's compatible with 78+ only. Besides I can't find any Information about it on the website or forum. Are there even some release notes somewhere?

Please, can anyone explain to me what is going on? Does enigmail work with thunderbird 78+, is it necessary, does it add functionality? Should I use enigmail or just take the build in OpenPGP functionality of thunderbird?

Excellent upgrade!
2 questions:
is it now required for everyone who send me encrypted messages to digitally signed their message so I can decrypt their message?

when i send an encrypted file, the recipients can decrypt the message and can't decrypt the file as it is said that the file isn't legit. What did i do wrong?

An excellent add-on which I only recently discovered and which has already been retired in TB 78. After wasting a lot of time trying to get the built-in encryption working in TB78 (without success) I simply gave up and went back to TB 68 + Enigmail. I guess I will be there until TB native encryption works and comes close to the Enigmail features and ease of use
