Enigmail is a glue between separate Applications — GnuPG and Mozilla Mail.
It was *designed* that way, as a proof that one could do it.
Enigmail is – I fully agree with you on that – far away from end user friendly
in the sense of an iPhone (“anyone can use it without ever having read any
documentation”).
But ask yourself: take a person that has never heard of the concept of Email.
Is there *any* program today that would lead a completely unexperienced user
to the point that he/she is able to use Email? OK, maybe Windows Mail? Well,
yes, if it’s OK to end up with a hotmail account. Given that the mail provider
shall be a certain trusted IMAPS provider (the analogy to that it shall be
OpenPGP, not S/MIME or other proprietary solutions which ARE easier to handle
and integrate), then NO program out there will help the user to set up the
account and add all server/login details into the configuration.
To cut long story short: if a user wants privacy, he must (to some extent)
learn about basic concepts (e.g. that he only can send encrypted if he has
the RECEIPIENT’s key etc.).
