I instaled gnupg using macports. Not Enigmail is asking me where the
executable file is. Where the heck did it install to?

Fire up the Terminal and try typing

which gpg

I'll bet it's in /usr/local/bin

MacPorts usually installs in /opt/local/bin

$ which gpg
/opt/local/bin/gpg

MacPorts normally installs into /opt/local/, so unless you changed it,
that's where it'll be.
