Comment(by proper):

 > Can you create a way for Thunderbird to allow PGP to automatically
 encrypt and decrypt messages?

 Automatic encryption of all outgoing mails is not possible. If the
 recipient does not care to support encryption, there is nothing you can
 do. There is however an option in Enigmail "always confirm before sending"
 which asks you before every mail if you want to send it encrypted or not.

 Automatic encryption of all incoming mails regardless if the sender
 encrypted them is technically possible. Not saying I endorse the feature.
 Did you try asking the enigmail developers for it?

 > Can you let PGP see the outgoing traffic without exposing it to the ISP
 and before Tor picks it up?

 ISP will never see outgoing traffic. ISP will only see Tor traffic.

 > And for incoming mail, could you let PGP see the incoming traffic right
 after Tor leaves off and thus after the ISP?

 Not sure if I understand what you are asking for... But for automatically
 encrypting all incoming mails, see this blog post:
