I just tried with the ZIP of 2004081009. I used the
enigmime-trunk-moz-win32-trunk.xpi I generated yesterday (this is the same
as the Nightly page. Enigmime initialized fine as shown by checking the
enigmail console.

What I also found does not bode well. All the enigmail XPIs I tried (mine
from yesterday; enigmail-trunk from the Nightly page; the download page's)
all displayed the same behavior. Most but not all messages would not
trigger verification/decryption and manual verification/decryption failed
to find an amoured message block.

At this point there are 2 options:

1) Build your own enigmail + Mozilla (Alternatively, I can make a ZIP of
my build available to you, but it comes with my options and settings.
Contact me off-list if you wish to pursue this or for more info.)

2) Fall back to using a release build for regular use and, if you are
willing, continue testing the nightlies and letting use know of any succcess.
