Note that Thunderbird is not supported by Mozilla any more.
Not strictly true: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird/New_Release_and_Governance_Model # Mozilla is focusing a lot of its efforts towards important web and # mobile projects, while Thunderbird remains a pure desktop only email # client. We have come to the conclusion that continued innovation on # Thunderbird is not a priority for Mozilla and that the most critical # needs for the product are on-going security and stability. Thunderbird 17.0.7 was released on June 25th. They go on to say: # In fact, it is quite possible that Thunderbird is already pretty much # what its users want and there is not a high demand for innovation in # this field. Given that "innovation" in this field has led me to also look to migrate away from Kontact & Kmail2 after many years of happy use I'm considering moving to Thunderbird at home too. I've been using TB at work for ages (because I can use it with Lightning and Davmail to access the Uni exchange calendar system).
