No ETA yet. Also, this is the holiday season, I'm not doing any major work right now ;)

In addition, I have a rather large potential project for January which may take a lot of my time, leaving less for Pale Moon/FossaMail if it pans out - unfortunately something like that pays the bills and gets priority.

It was a good idea but it doesn't seem to be that easy. The problem I run into is the fact that if I bundle enigmail, it assumes people already have an existing e-mail address set up. With a new install, that's not going to be the case - meaning it's a bit of a catch-22.

To do this, I probably need to write a custom installer that takes case of entering the initial e-mail address data, and then calling the mail client and letting the PGP wizard run. Not sure when I'll have time for that.
