Hey Team :)

my question is: Are attachments always encrypted when I have set up OpenPGP e2ee and choose "Require Encryption" when sending an email (I want to share a private key (of a mailing list) with someone)?

Couldn't find a definite answer in the help articles (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/openpgp-thunderbird-howto-and-faq, https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/introduction-to-e2e-encryption, https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/digitally-signing-and-encrypting-messages) or the help forum.

Thank you in advance!
