Jim,

You are using:
User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.14 (Windows/20080421)
X-Enigmail-Version: 0.95.6
GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32)

Your message to the list was:
This is an OpenPGP/MIME encrypted message (RFC 2440 and 3156)
--===============0192125782==
Content-Type: multipart/encrypted; protocol="application/pgp-encrypted";
	boundary="------------enig45DD1CB9813912F9A07F97A3"

This is an OpenPGP/MIME encrypted message (RFC 2440 and 3156)
--------------enig45DD1CB9813912F9A07F97A3
Content-Type: application/pgp-encrypted
Content-Description: PGP/MIME version identification

Your message was encrypted with the subkey 8F9BA576 of *your* key:
pub  1024D/6D5C899E  created: 2008-05-16  expires: 2013-05-15  usage: SCA
                     trust: unknown       validity: unknown

So, it would appear that you have successfully configured TB and
Enigmail to work with each other...but you might have wanted to *sign*
the message, and not to encrypt it. One does not send encrypted messages
to this list. BTW, when you want to send an encrypted message to some
one, you have to use the recipient's public key; you can *also* use your
own public key by default, so that you can decrypt your own message.

Please check your settings, e.g. OpenPGP/Per Recipient Rules,
OpenPGP/Sign Message (or the OpenPGP icon in the message's Tool bar,
there should be something like that), etc...

Welcome anyway and better luck next time.
