[Thunderbird] Obsolete PGP encryption method

Hello,

i am encrypting emails with PGP on mail server, and i have not the possibility to sign them because i can only have the public keys available on server.

So when i download the emails with Thunderbird , they are PGP encrypted but not signed.

When i open these emails with Thunderbird, i get an error saying the message has been encrypted by an obsolete method, and may have been modified during transmission, so it will not be displayed.

I guess the problem is missing signature? Is there a way to tell Thunderbird to ignore the missing signature and decrypt the message anyway? Or may the problem be the application/pgp mime type i am using, which is obsolete? I may try with Content-Type: multipart/encrypted; protocol="application/pgp-encrypted"; but i guess it makes no difference if the problem is in the missing signature

Example email that gives me the error:

....

Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="_000_VI1P194MB063950F8AFCFEF8AE12E5510A13C0VI1P194MB0639EURP_" .... ....
