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... 🤦‍♂️

We wish a happy 😊
I Love Free Software Day to You! 🎉

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! 💙

Seconding the #Thunderbird suggestion. Haven't used anything else since 2006 or so. Development has picked up quite a bit again recently.


Thunderbird is an email client with built-in support for PGP encryption.

Messages are encrypted/decrypted in the client and remain encrypted on email servers, this is client-side encryption.

Some email providers support PGP encryption server-side, this method could be vulnerable to third-party decryption of emails.

PGP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pretty_Good_Privacy
Client side encryption: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Client-side_encryption

I liked most the joint dinner of #OpenPrinting and #Thunderbird on Sunday, 13 Thunderbirdies and 1 from OpenPrinting ...

I've been trying to pay more for stuff I use. Once every week, picking something new, and giving that project some money, if I can find a way.

So far: @thunderbird, Strawberry, Nokogiri, @signalapp @IceCubesApp.

Inspired by some recent conversations in the space, and the #thunderbird talk at #fosdem asking OSS developers to ask their users for money.


Now that we're all back and recovering from FOSDEM, we'd love to know two things: what were your favorite talks, and just as importantly, what were your favorite moments in between the talks? 🤔

(And no, those talks and moments don't have to be Thunderbird related! This is not a shameless ploy for attention, we promise. We'll be MUCH more obvious about those! 😜 💙 )

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: https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/support-vjournal-in-thunderbird/idi-p/46295
Thank you 🤗

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

Thanks a lot to the organizers of @fosdem and the modern email developer room.

Oh wow, #Thunderbird​s kommende neue UI sieht aus, als hätten sie endlich zwei Jahrzehnte aufgeholt:

https://youtu.be/4QY6ADlspTQ&t=424


Using #Thunderbird for the first time in decades. Amazingly good. I'm thinking of moving to it from Mail.app to remove the least likelihood of an attack-mail getting control of my OS.


Whether you're trying to get through the afternoon slump in Brussels or trying to wake up or stay awake in other parts of the globe, Team Thunderbird is a fan of putting your caffeinated beverage of choice in a stylish mug!

This image was the result of an experiment playing with an AI image generator. I had asked for a blue bird in the shape of a padlock, as a potential way to symbolize email encryption in our software. I brought some stickers with it to #Fosdem and many visitors of our #Thunderbird booth took one, because we were already out of other stickers. I'd like to clarify, it is NOT an official image of our project, it was created just for fun.


Hello @thunderbird Alessandro gave a talk at our Open Source Design devroom. He has left his power charger in AW1.126.

Good afternoon, Brussels! Thank you to everyone who came out and tuned in to @ryanleesipes talk this morning. We've got some great pics from Team Thunderbird, and we've loved seeing your pics! Keep them coming this weekend!

#Thunderbird #FOSDEM


In 90 minutes, @ryanleesipes will be in the Main Track (K.1.105 - La Fontaine) sharing how your open source project can use the Thunderbird template to thrive, not just survive. If you're not in Brussels - or if you are and want to join remotely - you can just watch the stream here: https://live.fosdem.org/watch/k1105 or watch AND join the room chat here: https://chat.fosdem.org/#/room/#2024-k.1.105_la_fontaine_:fosdem.org

I like the #Haiku icon set, but their #Thunderbird icon looks like a pigeon about to take a crap on a piece of paper. 😜

I think Thunderbird deserves more respect! 😉 🙂


Been using #Thunderbird as my email client on the Work Mac for the past couple of weeks, and while it doesn’t look as polished as Outlook, it’s certainly less fucky.

However, the nature of it means that it’s inherently adjustable, which also means that a number of things that really ought to be toggles are things you have to adjust using code.

And why does the Sent folder sort by oldest at the top, with no apparent way to change it?


I donated to @thunderbird #freetheinbox . Join me to support communication privacy. #thunderbird does not have Mastodon Share link on their donation page. #Fediverse


And #FOSDEM #FOSDEM2024 is not only my 2 talks ...

It will start with inflight sessions with @pemensik, working on Avahi, and others from Red Hat.

In the evening I will have a dinner with Canonical/Ubuntu colleages and friends: @linuxflower @3v1n0 @laney @kewisch @popey and more

Saturday evening I will meet #GSoC mentor fellows on a GSoC evening event and afterwards join the #GNOME #GNOMEbeers

I will visit booths of GSoC and #Thunderbird @thunderbird @killyourfm


We have all the info (and links) for the FOSDEM talks from members of our Thunderbird community in this thread, so whether you're trying to get into a room or watch a talk from the comfort of your own space (and computer), we have you covered. Like Seven says, there's no reason not to be there! 🧵 (1/4)

If you'll be at FOSDEM this weekend, can you help us with this sticky situation? You can find us in Building K, Level 1, Group B where Team Thunderbird will be happy to share their knowledge, excitement, and of course, stickers!

Having been through this process at work recently, it seems that a possible cause of problems could be #Thunderbird not being set up to allow cookies (which privacy conscious users naturally tend not to permit). It seems that some #OAuth2 login pages may need cookies to be allowed in order to work, so it is probably worth adding this to the support page as a suggestion to check this setting.


I installed the latest version of #Thunderbird today after a long time, and it's really great. However, I personally miss important features like a 'from-full-address' column or the implementation of the ManageSieve protocol.

Kudos @thunderbird

Thunderbird als Matrix-Client

Seit Thunderbird 102 ist Matrix standardmäßig aktiviert. Ich habe mal einen Blick darauf geworfen.

If you use Thunderbird as a client for Microsoft-owned accounts and have sign-in issues, especially recently, be sure to check our newly updated KB article on the topic. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/microsoft-oauth-authentication-and-thunderbird-202

We'll be keeping a close eye on these issues, and thanks to everyone who has both let us know about their problems and jumped in to help others. 😊 💙
