enigmail is no longer installable with the thunderbird version
now in stretch (#949736).

Updating enigmail in stretch might be non-trivial due to the
versioned dependency on gnupg.

It is expected that shortly after the final non-LTS release of stretch
there will be an LTS update of thunderbird in stretch with a version
that can no longer be supported by enigmail:

I do not see a better solution than removing the enigmail package
that is already not installable in stretch.

Daniel Kahn Gillmor Cc'ed, an ACK/NAK would be appreciated.
