We're not done with Thunderbird Supernova!

As promised, we will continue to improve the UI and functionality of message threads and Cards view.

We outline the upcoming changes in our Thunderbird UX mailing list here: https://thunderbird.topicbox.com/groups/ux/Tdb49a4666565e68e-M4aba7d876e0ced9c8d66ca58

A mockup with developer comments is also available from the link.

💡 If you have valuable feedback to offer about this, please reply to the mailing list so our developers & community see it!

#Thunderbird #Email #OpenSource

The "New Outlook" demands that when adding your #Gmail account, you also give Microsoft a copy of all your Gmail email, contacts, and calendar data.

The "Learn More" link confirms:

"Syncing your account to the Microsoft Cloud means that a copy of your email, calendar, and contacts will be synchronized between your email provider and Microsoft data centers."

WOW.

Good time to switch to @thunderbird, folks!

Okay, what the heck?!

Miliony e-mailů určených členům americké armády za poslední roky skončily v Mali kvůli tomu, že autoři místo armádní koncovky „.mil“ omylem uvedli malijskou doménu „.ml“. https://www.irozhlas.cz/zpravy-svet/armada-usa-emaily-mali_2307171259_krp

Miliony e-mailů armády USA skončily kvůli překlepu v Mali. Únik se týká i vysoce citlivých údajů

Autoři místo armádní koncovky „.mil“ omylem uvedli malijskou doménu „.ml“. Problém je o to vážnější, že správa domény „.ml“ přechází zpět do rukou malijské vlády, která má blízko k Rusku.

Thunderbird for Android / K-9 Mail: May 2023 Progress Report

^{cketti (The Thunderbird Blog)}

Quick FYI 🏁 🏎️

Prior to #GoDaddy killing my #POP #Email client access on June 2 as part of #Microsoft's mandate to force users onto its #Exchange protocol, I switched from #Outlook 2016 to #Thunderbird 114 Beta (which still connects w/ #POP3 + #OAuth2 - unsure if it's a glitch, but it works)

Thunderbird 114 Beta Portable (it's the version I'm using)

Since Thunderbird team is moving towards its new #Supernova #UI for Thunderbird 115, there's a mixture of old & new menus

BREAKING: #Google to start deleting unused #email accounts so other people can use them.

🤔 What could possibly go wrong?

🤦‍♂️ Techbros are (still) idiots.

We're getting closer to Thunderbird for Android! One of our next steps for K-9 Mail is to incorporate Thunderbird’s Autoconfig mechanism. This will dramatically improve the new account setup experience.

By default, #Thunderbird automatically blocks images in your emails from being displayed -- because many of those images may contain tracking code.

(Sometimes these images are tiny "tracking pixels" you may not even see).

Take your protection one step further by installing #uBlock Origin to block all kinds of unwanted content in your RSS feeds -- it's now an official Thunderbird Add-on: https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/ublock-origin/

#Privacy #Email

(EDITED FOR CLARITY)

uBlock Origin

Finally, an efficient blocker. Easy on CPU and memory. uBlock Origin (uBO) is a CPU and memory-efficient wide-spectrum content blocker that blocks ads, trackers, coin miners, popups, annoying anti-blockers, etc.

I think that this #ableist #eMail bs should be #illegal and does not satisfy the notification requirements.

Also even for #abled people this is just bad, since a lot of them - like myself - will be sometimes if permanently on #WWAN like #2G, #3G or #4G and thus not download attachments at all, but only the text.

And yes, I do also automatically mark all #HTML - #eMails as #Spam so they won't even show up in my #Inbox.
