Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox

Like the legend of the phoenix, we're resurrecting Mozilla Send, an end-to-end encrypted file share service, and bringing it under our wings as Thunderbird Send. In this clip from S1E5 of the ThunderCast, developer Chris Aquino gives us a sneak peek of the new - wait, old - er, reborn project!

Learn how #Thunderbird Send will help you overcome your file upload woes, respect your privacy, safeguard against abuse, and hopefully change your #email experience for the better.

In light of recent ransomware masquerading as Thunderbird, now is an excellent time to review the list of trusted places you can download and install Thunderbird from. @linuxflower walks you through the list for each operating system: blog.thunderbird.net/2023/10/r

Hey, it doesn't matter how long it takes you to reach the right destination. Only that you eventually arrive πŸ˜‰

If you're on Windows or macOS and want to upgrade to Thunderbird 115 right now, you don't need to wait for the auto-update.

Just download the installer at thunderbird.net, and install it over your existing version. This is effectively a manual upgrade from 102 to 115.

If you're using Linux, well, it gets more complicated... For now, we recommend waiting for your distro's maintainers to send it your way. Or wait for our Flatpak release, which should happen very soon.

@thunderbird looking forward to the flatpak or fedora package maintainers, whoever gets there first πŸ˜‰

@thunderbird any idea how much longer the Flatpak will take to be available?

@thunderbird waiting a lot for flatpak update! πŸš€

@thunderbird It looks so good, really excited for this! :cirno_flap:

@thunderbird does it have conversation view instead of message-by-message?

Evv1L :blobcatlaptop:

@thunderbird can Thunderbird desktop receive and notify about new emails in the background when the window is closed?

(I mean minimized in tray smh like KDE has)

Are you using @libreoffice alongside Thunderbird? Let's make them work better together! πŸ’ͺ

Here are some ideas (from YOU), and ways to implement them: blog.thunderbird.net/2023/06/c

@thunderbird @libreoffice love these ideas, especially #3. I think integration of desktop apps is the main thing missing from desktop Linux. Microsoft actually does a great job of it; I have to use Windows at my job, and am grateful for how easy they make working between applications. I use Fedora at home and have customized my workflow using plugins and scripts and everything else but it would be great for integration to come out-of-the-box.

Hello @thunderbird @libreoffice, my old friends,
why not fixing this 11 year old and still annoying bug ?
bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.

@thunderbird @libreoffice All I want to see is Libreoffice to implement tabs as Thunderbird.

Here's a screenshot from the current #Thunderbird 115 beta showing improvements to "Folder Modes." Hello there, Tags!

In the very near future, you'll be able to easily re-order these Folder Modes when this bug ships: bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.

If you have questions about #Beta or want to share your experience with other testers, join our mailing list here: thunderbird.topicbox.com/group

The folder pane of Thunderbird 115 Beta, separated by Folder Mode categories like "Favorite Folders," "All Folders" and "Tags."

Here's a very early implementation of #Firefox Sync running in Thunderbird Daily!

The bones are there and the foundation is solid.

Though it may be called something else by the time we launch it in Thunderbird 115 (such as Thunderbird Sync or #Mozilla Sync), it's a feature we're THRILLED about putting in your hands.

Screenshot from Thunderbird Daily, showing an early version of Firefox Sync implementation which displays a sign in button and the text "Synchronize your accounts, address books, calendars, add-ons, and settings across all your devices."

Thunderbird for Android releases next year, and development is moving forward at a promising pace.

Here's an early (but not final) preview of what the Message View will look like: blog.thunderbird.net/2022/12/t

@thunderbird Pour nous qui utilisons et recommandons déjà Thunderbird et K9Mail, c'est probablement une très bonne chose !

@thunderbird
Great πŸ™‚ When it releases, it will be good if it doesn't only sit on Google play. Some of us refuse to use any platform with Google in the URL. I need Google not to be aware that I have a phone! So fDroid, Aptoide, etc?, are necessary as alternate download sites.

Thank you so much for all your work on @thunderbird ! A true masterpiece!

The path to bringing you a great email experience on Android devices begins with K-9 Mail, which joined the Thunderbird family earlier this summer.

As we work towards a modern redesign of desktop Thunderbird, we’re also working to improve K-9 Mail as it begins its transition to Thunderbird mobile in Summer 2023.

Read more about today's new release of K-9 Mail on the Thunderbird blog:

We never did a proper #introduction, did we? 😲

Hi Fediverse, we're Thunderbird, an #opensource #email client available for free on Linux, macOS and Windows. (And coming next year to Android. FINALLY, right?)

You can use Thunderbird for managing an unlimited number of mail accounts, calendars, newsgroup accounts, and RSS feeds. You can also chat using your @matrix account.

πŸ’™ LIKES: Open standards, privacy, freedom, customization.

🚫 DISLIKES: Proprietary code.

Nice to meet you πŸ“©

@thunderbird @matrix
The matrix chat implementation really doesn't feel ready to ship yet. Maybe it should be flagged as beta or something. Just to adjust expectations, e.g. if I wouldn't use Thunderbird and would try that feature, I would probably delete Thunderbird immediately seeing how features are shipped and advertised even while being in such a poor state.

Sorry for the negativity, just my opinion. Using only the Mail feature I love Thunderbird so far.

We absolutely love seeing how helpful the FOSS / Thunderbird community is here on the Fediverse. Unlike every other social platform we're on, you're constantly helping each other with issues.

And we sincerely appreciate that, since it's basically one person handling all the comms.

Rock on, Thunderbird family!

@thunderbird Surprisingly, the place that's a solution for those willing to put in a bit of effort sometimes has an above average amount of people willing to put in a bit of effort to solve problems.

Thunderbird 102 features a Spaces Toolbar for fast access to your Mail, Address Books, Calendars, Tasks, Chat, and more. You can also customize it with the colors YOU want. Here's how. youtube.com/watch?v-VrxhxxXVUn

@thunderbird
What do people need to start to use encryption?

(Moreba question for the audience πŸ˜‰)

D. Moonfire

@thunderbird How do we make encryption easier to use when the bulk of the providers have a financial interest not to have encryption (Google, Hotmail, other places that scan emails for data)?"

Also, is there a way of using SSH keys instead of SSL much like AGE encrypts things? Or Gemini's TOFU (trust on first use)?
