Thunderbird can help you get on Jeopardy!

Okay, it can help you not miss important messages, like those saying you passed the contestant exam and audition. But if you're using Thunderbird, you're definitely clever enough for Jeopardy. 🟦 🤔

If you've recently installed Thunderbird for Android and want to add PGP support, a new article from @ZDNet has you covered. (And seriously, it's a great article!)

@thunderbird Hey Thunderbird!

So the Android app is finally there. Yay! Job well done! And the export QR code is visible, too!

Buuuut. On the very same email Server, with the very same connection options, 1 account can be exported, 3 are not shown. The only difference? The Username and password.

Is this known?

Hey folks! I'm getting back into Thunderbird as my main email app on Windows and I'm on the hunt for some great add-ons.

I'm especially interested in **accessibility-focused add-ons** that play nice with NVDA and JAWS screen readers. But I'm also curious about any **cool add-ons** that make Thunderbird even better, even if they're not specifically for accessibility.

Got any recommendations? Share them here!

Tagging @mastoblind and @main to spread the word. This is for my fellow blind users, but anyone with a favorite Thunderbird add-on, please chime in!

Most of Team Thunderbird is heading into a long weekend, but not before we share our latest Community Office Hours video! We sat down for a chat with Mark Surman, president of the @mozilla Foundation, to talk about Thunderbird's history and hopefully long future!

I’ve been on Fedi for a year now and have fallen in love with the platform, so here’s my introduction! I studied computer science with a focus on RTOS and FP/PL, but I’m about to start my final semester of law school. I’ll be practicing at a boutique firm that primarily handles IP cases once I’m barred. I foilboard and I play way too many rhythm games in and out of the arcade.

I contribute to open source projects where I can, and I write up my experience in my digital garden which I’ve been maintaining for over a year now. It’s also a good place to find usage tips for projects/tools that you might want to use.

My passion for tech also includes privacy, and I’m an advocate for minimizing your digital footprint. GenAI is a scam and its purveyors are causing real harm while they sell it as hard as they can.

Aw, that's fantastic! Thanks for the shout-out love!

...and thanks to everyone for making #Thunderbird such a fantastic tool! ❤


Our latest productivity blog is out - and it was inspired by one of @RL_Dane's many Thunderbird tips, tricks, and hacks! If you're fighting against an overflowing inbox, and don't know where to start, the 'Grouped by Sort' view can help.

New contribution experience report, about fixing a bug in @thunderbird . Spoiler: it went surprisingly well, they have made some serious effort to ease first contributions since last time I tried (and failed). Go #Thunderbird! ⚡ antonin.delpeuch.eu/posts/cont…


If there is a subject of #RSS happening, I recommend taking advantage of @thunderbird's built in RSS reader for those that use #Thunderbird. I use both for websites and podcasts. And yes, it can be used for #Mastodon accounts as well.


This fuels the sort of exuberance and hope that leads me to keep a candle lit for Graph API. 🙏🙏🙏🕯️

We’re celebrating 20 years of Thunderbird this year! It’s been an incredible journey for our users, the dedicated team of contributors who have worked on it and of course our amazing open-source community who has been there every step of the way. 🎉 To mark this occasion, check out this beautiful video by @freehive and see how Thunderbird is ready for the next 20 years.

A useful (to me, anyway) Thunderbird tip!

I compose and reply in plain text, but once in a while, I want to reply using html, to preserve formatting in the original message.

Shift + click "Reply" on the interface means "reply as html".

I haven't found a keyboard shortcut for this yet though - if you know one, please share!

Thunderbird for Android 8.0b3 is out! There are two things we'd really love help testing. One is the funding feature! (thunderbird.topicbox.com/group…). The other is the QR code sync between desktop and mobile (thunderbird.topicbox.com/group…). Thanks to everyone who has helped beta test and given feedback!

Thunderbird for Android 8.0b2 has landed on the Google Play Store and on our Github Releases page. We've removed the existing folder class system, and would love feedback on this change from new and existing users. For more information on the release, see the release notes on GitHub:

Still battling a bit of a cold and headache, but nonetheless let's try to do another Thunderbird live coding session

#thunderbird #live #coding #development #opensource

OUTDATED⚠️
Mozilla bought the Android email app K-9 (which didn’t include any trackers) and integrated trackers as part of #Mozilla‘s rebranding under the #Thunderbird name.

They even made it opt-out instead of opt-in. Their defense for breaking the law: ”we wouldn’t have enough data if we obeyed the law.“

It doesn’t matter whether you ”anonymized“ the data or not: If you want to extract data from someone’s device to yours, you may do so only if they knowingly consented.
sigmoid.social/@davidculley/11…


The Thunderbird developers listened to their users and removed tracking entirely. Only the beta version of version 8 contained the telemetry. The final release no longer does, at least for now.


The “New” #Outlook being propagated by #Microsoft now synchronizes ALL your email, passwords, calendar etc. to their own cloud, also for non-Microsoft accounts. Ostensibly for more efficiency and better service and functionality. That may be part of it, but I’m now finally dropping Outlook entirely and moving to #Thunderbird. Enough is enough.


It's time for the Thunderbird Monthly Development Digest! We have updates on:

* Our Exchange progress
* Account hub development
* Global Database and Conversation View
* In-App Notification
* Source Docs Clean Up
* Cross Device Import
* Battling OAuth Changes

Read the latest and find out what's landing soon! 🛬

The @thunderbird team just released the first beta of their email client for Android. I've filed two accessibility bugs on GitHub, and within hours one is addressed and will be in the next beta release (with a pleasant thank you note to boot).

If you feel so inclined, please consider downloading the app and reporting accessibility problems. Especially if you're a native TalkBack user.
