As the spring season unfolds, bringing with it a sense of renewal and growth, we at DORS/CLUC 2024 are excited to share some exhilarating news with our esteemed community.

Also, some interesting @thunderbird trivia: In 2004, internet access wasn't nearly as widespread as it is now, so Mozilla offered to send installation CD-ROMs to users for $5.95.
Oooohhh, when we finaly see «Thunderbird for Android» (exactly this name 😁)? I cant wait!!! There is still no mail app on my smartphone 😖 Please, make it a little faster... just a little... 🙏 #thunderbird #ThunderbirdMobile

Today's Thunderbird Tip is something you'll want to bookmark if you use Thunderbird with Microsoft hosted accounts. Our Knowledge Base (KB) article on Microsoft OAuth is up to date - and we're staying alert to keep this resource current and helpful. 📖 ✨
Changes to OAuth authentication for Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365; often abbreviated as “o365”) business and academic hosted email accounts and services.
I had the pleasure to talk at #installfest in #prague today. That was a great experience. I hope my talk about #Thunderbird convinced at least one person to contribute to #Foss. I even met Mitch Altman, who it turns out uses the email client for a long time.
#SCaLE21x, it's almost time to say goodbye, but it's been a blast. Thank you everyone who came by our booth to share your stories, heard @linuxflower talk about Thunderbird for Android, and made our first time here a great one. 🐧 💙

It's a planes, trains, and automobiles kind of day for the Team #Thunderbird members heading to #SCaLE21x ! Come see us - aka Jason, Natalie, Heather, and Monica (the latter two sharing their airport pics!) - at Booth 215 . We'd love to chat with you, hear your Thunderbird stories, and share some sticker love. Ryan will be talking all about Thunderbird for Android Saturday at 14:30 in Ballroom C✈️ 🚆 🚗

And in a completely, totally, honestly unrelated question, we've been thinking about the kinds of Easter Eggs you can't eat. What are YOUR favorite hidden surprises? Any media counts! 🐣 😉
It's not a big leap to say how much work went into Thunderbird for Android/K-9 this February! 🗓️
In the latest update, we talk about the newest stable release and discuss what's next: the journey to Material 3 (and how beta testers can make it as smooth as possible) and Android 14 compatibility. ✨
And as always, you can find the latest community contributions and find out how to get involved! 💪
This is new to me, and would be useful. But I find that when I select a tag, the message list is empty until I disable the Quick Filter. I can enable it again and still see the messages. #Thunderbird
I love, love, LOVE my #Thunderbird tags! (especially with the filters I've set up to delete messages after a period of time, eg "Keep for 1 week/month/3 months" then delete unless starred etc).
Can't wait for tags+filters to make their way over to #ThunderbirdMobile / #K9 mail!
It's Thursday, and we've got a Thunderbird two in one tip! If you use tags to organize your emails, today's tips are all about activating and moving tags in the Folder Pane.
1. Click the Folder Pane Menu (three dots on right side of 'New Message') 📁 2. Hover over Folder Modes ➡️ 3. Enable Tags ✅
Want to move the tags around? Click on the vertical three-dot Tags menu to shift them up or down.
It's #TuneTuesday and the theme is #IBoughtItFirst - the first single/album you got for yourself. @communiteatime is driving and picking the music, so don't say we didn't warn you. ⚠️
That first album was...Shepherd Moons by Enya. For a 90s teen into Irish and New Age music, what else would it have been? 😅
This was the fav song, and it made it onto an Ireland travel playlist for OSS-EU back in 2022. And now our earworm is yours! What was your first? 🐛

We’re happy to announce the release of K-9 Mail 6.800! The main goal of this version is to make it easier for you to add your email accounts to the app by integrating Thunderbird’s autoconfig feature.

Meanwhile I am migrating my mails to selfhosted mail server, with great help of #thunderbird, since it is really efficient in moving thousands of mails from one place to another.

One more friendly reminder: If you have any questions about #Thunderbird Add-ons, email them to officehours@thunderbird.net and we'll put them in front of John during tomorrow's Office Hours session.
This is your friendly reminder for our monthly Community Office Hours this Thursday at 18:00 UTC! Team Thunderbird will be joined by John Bieling, who will be talking to us and answering your questions about Add-ons and Add-on development.
Sr. Software Engineer John Bieling joins us to talk about Thunderbird Add-ons in the February Thunderbird Community Office Hours! Learn about what they can do and how to get involved.
Every month our mobile developers (cketti and Wolf) write a detailed progress report showing what's been completed on our journey from K-9 Mail to Thunderbird for Android.
In January most of our work went into polishing the user interface and user experience of the new and improved account setup. However, there was still one feature missing that we really wanted to get in there...
If Thunderbird was a cake, then its Add-ons would be the amazingly delicious frosting on top! Join the Thunderbird Team on February 22 at 18:00 UTC as we chat with Sr. Software Engineer John Bieling about Add-on development and how you can help out!

Always nice when the security bug you encountered while migrating to a new #thunderbird hasn't been fixed since it was opened 3 years ago... 🤦♂️ bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.…
Before we get too far into 2024, we wanted to think about everything that went well - and the things that didn't go so great - for Thunderbird in 2023. Don't get us wrong, while we think some amazing things happened last year, we also want to admit what we could have done differently. 🙂 😐 😕
As always, we'd love to know your thoughts on where - and how - we can improve! 💙
Hi everyone! If you like the idea of having journals and notes (ie. the VJOURNAL component) supported by @thunderbird , please also give your thumbs up on the following post: connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/s… Thank you 🤗 #Mozilla #thunderbird
# already has a great support for VTODO VCALENDAR and contacts. What is missing though is support for VJOURNAL entries. Journals are close to calendar entries.
I'm interested in your feedback on these thoughts. Either here, or, if your feedback is longer, for a discussion it might be best to post to thunderbird.topicbox.com/group…
