I wish to send an encrypted email. I have imported and accepted the recipient's public key.

When I compose an email to this recipient, the "encrypt" button is disabled.

Also, the security button mentioned in this article is not present on the compose toolbar, or anywhere for that matter https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/openpgp-thunderbird-howto-and-faq#w_how-do-i-send-an-encrypted-or-digitally-signed-email

Windows 11.

Any idea how to fix this?
