PGP is something i didnt had in mind!
Thats a good reason to keep Thunderbird in the Favorites.

None of the statistics i found in the web seem to be comparable with Tails
because most of them have client, webmail and mobile in their statistic.
And depending on the use case and the age of the userbase the numbers seem
to be very different.
I dont have the link anymore because its some days ago already that i asked
the web but one bigger statistic i found for example showed a big
difference between different countries too.
Germany for example had the lowest amount of client users with 16% or
something and Spain one of the highest with 40% or something.
The client usage in most statistics stayed roundabout the same.
Most showed a small decrease towards mobile usage, very few showed a small
increase.
But like i said i dont think you will easily find numbers which could fit
for Tails users.
So i think as long as there is not a survey for Tails users it will need to
stay a guess.
