I'm getting the following error message when attempting to send a signed email (Write -> Security -> Digitally sign this message):

Unable to send the message, because there is a problem with your personal key. You have not confirmed that the key with ID 'xxx' is your personal key.

This occurred after migrating keys from Enigmail to Thunderbird.
