If your school or workplace uses Exchange for email, accessing it with Thunderbird just got easier! Our blog post has all the details on getting connected. Additional features, like calendar and address book, are in the works!
Warum nochmal kann Thunderbird keine VJOURNALs anzeigen, bitte? Wieviel Arbeit wäre es denn, dafür ein PlugIn / einen Konnektor zu schreiben (auch einfach interim)? @thunderbird #thunderbird #mozilla
I am a [community](https://pontoon.mozilla.org/contributors/bogomil/) [contributor](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/user_profile?user_id=359734) and a long-time user of [Thunderbird](https://www.thunderbird.net/).
Thunderbird 144 is out now! Exchange support is closer to officially landing, dragging and dropping your folders is easier, and we're adding new ways to keep your email safe!
and here I was happily emailing people on #Thunderbird and making designs on #Penpot and #Inkscape to share via #XMPP, at which point I remembered to catch up on discussions on #Loomio, and got roped into drafting a manifesto on #Cryptpad, all while blissfully unaware of the chaos going on until I opened #Newsflash and read about it all on the #RSS feeds that I synchronise via #NextCloud, at which point I decided to head over to talk about it with the world thanks to #ActivityPub!
Not all of our progress is headline worthy! But steady, detail-oriented work, described in our latest development update, is a firm foundation for the next leaps forward.
The… cool people… at @thunderbird have released a new feature called "Account Hub". It works exactly with Outlook.com and Google Mail and crashes on any self-hosted mail server 🤦.
Do they even test their crap with independent systems? OIDC support being limited to Google and a handful others in code was one thing, but how does a feature that simply breaks all mail accounts but GAFAM make it into a release?

Dear @thunderbird people ... when viewing my email, I want to be able to hover over a link (1) to figure out if it's obviously dodgy .... please can you make the real url appear in a large font - perhaps as an on hover bubble or something - rather than putting it in small text in the bottom of the window (2) where various other status updates go (and overwrite it), making it hard to see. #Thunderbird #Phishing
