Hello,

I revoked my primary email pgp key (over 10 years old). I created a new key pair. Imported to thunderbird keyserver. Then removed the old key from the thunderbird key server.

Now, I get an error message when I try to sign/encrypt an outgoing email to myself:

Unable to send the message, because there is a problem with your personal key. The configured key ID ‘AAAAAAAAAAAAA’ cannot be found on your keyring.

So how do I change the configured key ID?

Thanks in advance for any assistance

You still need to update the e2e encryption settings for the account with the new key.
