--- Comment #3 from george at m5p.com ---
This problem still exists in December 2016.  I've found a less insecure
workaround.  Precondition: you are running gpg-agent.  Before starting
thunderbird, decrypt any file from the command line with gpg2.  (Or after
starting thunderbird, navigate away from the message you can't decrypt; run
gpg2; then navigate back to the message of interest.)  Thunderbird will now be
able to decrypt messages using the key whose passphrase you entered for gpg2.
