After a fresh installation of whole GPG suite, the mail pluggin is installed, but in compose windows no button for signing/encryption is pressent.
On other computers it works but not on my (and on my colleague’s as well).
Mail is version Version 10.3 (3273)
Thank you

    Hi Vaclav,

    welcome to the GPGTools support platform. Sorry you are having problems using GPG Suite.

    Could you please download and install our latest GPG Suite nightly build and see if the problem persists. That page also has sig and SHA256 to verify the download.

    Do you see your sec/pub key entry in GPG Keychain?

    All the best,
    steve

    Hello Steve,

    thank you for solving my problem ! You mentioned key entry in GPG
    Keychain. I had a key there, but the key had expired.
    I had closed Mail app, then changed validity date of key and after I had
    Mail app started again, buttons came to right place.
    I would expect in such case (no valid key for sender adress) the button
    would be dissabled, but present, but I can of course understand you
    solution -> no valid key so buttons are not present because its not
    possible to use them :-)

    Thank you again
    Have a nice day
