Mail plugin is nice and all, but I also like keychain, and I use GPG for git commit signing. So now it's a bit unfortunate that I cannot install GPG Suite on Big Sur at all, even though from my understanding only Mail plugin is causing issues. Would it be possible to have a version of GPG Suite without Mail plugin which would work on Big Sur?

    That had worked very well! Thank you very much. I have been confused by the fact that it had same version number of 2020.1, so I did not try to install it.
