When will it get a 2022 user interface? Still looks like 1998.

@ReinerKnudsen Gotta strongly disagree that it looks like an app from 1998. Have you used this year's version 102?

But your point remains valid; it's a little dated.

Check out what's coming next year: https://developer.thunderbird.net/planning/roadmap

Planned work for the 115 (2023) release of Thunderbird.

If your all about privacy, why can't I get rid of the Google search engine? I suspect that funding is involved. So I guess privacy takes a backseat. Just like Twitter bought out.

@mikonian Did you know about the Owl extension https://www.beonex.com/owl/ ? I've used it for years with no issue.

It's not open source and 10€/year, but I think it's worth the trouble if it allows me to use Thunderbird at work.

@mikonian @LucasDclrcq Mike, it's a really solid and reliable solution.

Also worth mentioning: if your admin has enabled IMAP for your Exchange account, that should work just fine, natively, in Thunderbird.

its been my default client since #Debian Potato, when it was part of Netscape / Mozilla Communicator, nice and smooth migrations and backups ever since.

There's nothing like follow the standards.

Thank you for your huge work!!!

Thunderbird has great plans for 2023, including a big redesign of their interface to make it more usable and modern, and integrating the K-9 mail app for Android into the Thunderbird ecosystem. Consider supporting if you value private and user-respecting email communication.

@hoheinzollern Will/is there direct Exchange support? Exploring moving my desktop to something like ZorinOS but good Exchange support is still a missing piece from what I can tell.

@reflex I'm in no way affiliated with the Thunderbird project besides being a donor. If you want good support for Exchange you can check out "Owl" (https://www.beonex.com/owl/), which is a plugin for Thunderbird. There's a free trial period so you can check it out, and after that the price is worth my money at least :)

@hoheinzollern Good to know, thanks for the info! Been playing with BlueMail which seems to be pretty good, but isn't open source I don't think and I can't really tell what their roadmap is and if they'll implement what's still missing.
