Not only is it one of the best email clients, but I didn’t know @thunderbird was also a chicken restaurant!!!

@jae This is fantastic! Though we feel for them if someone comes in for wings and advice on their IMAP settings. 😅

Seriously, thanks so much for sharing your visit. You made our day - even if you made us a bit hungry. 😋

So when is native Exchange Support coming to Thunderbird - and what role does Rust play? Get the answer in this clip from our most recent office hours! 📼 🦀

Also, this video and ALL our videos going forward will have German subtitles. Ausgezeichnet! 🇩🇪

@gumnaam Hey there! Everything is fine! Last year the financial report came out in the beginning of May, so the 2023 report should be out around the same time. Hope this helps calm any worries!

@taketwo We're starting with email protocols first, but we would very much like to expand that into all MS protocols.

Are some of your messages in Thunderbird's Dark Mode hard to read? While we work on a more permanent fix, this Bugzilla report has some useful workarounds. 🌙

@thunderbird Any plans to add an “Unsubscribe” button in future versions? I know there is an extension that provides this functionality, but reviews say it no longer works.

thunderbird,
@thunderbird@mastodon.online avatar

@bcon Good timing on the question.
YES! Mailing list management is supported as of Thunderbird 125 Beta. However, there is a lot of work to do still. But the bones are there now. More info here: https://thunderbird.topicbox.com/groups/beta/T7103372a2c45b3b0

As we start producing video guides for Thunderbird beginners, we'd love to see your opinion: what tips or walkthroughs should we include?

Teleport yourself back to your first few months using Thunderbird. What do you wish you would have known about?

Thanks in advance for all your feedback!

@OneInTheVillage Excellent suggestion, thank you!

I believe the calender part of @thunderbird could use some work.

@tokudan The calendar is getting some serious love and attention in the coming year. So that work is coming!

Switched from @thunderbird to because of inconsistencies in the reply buttons in TB. Some reply buttons in TB insert signatures and others do not. For the record my signature is two short lines of plain text.

thunderbird,
@thunderbird@mastodon.online avatar

@etrigan63 This is not an ideal experience, and we (and future users) would be so grateful if you posted about this in Bugzilla (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=Thunderbird) so we can see which buttons aren't inserting signatures.

~Monica

@etrigan63 Got it, and thank you. We'll give the team a heads up about this report!

Gmail’s desktop web app is so slow, the team should be ashamed. Every interaction has a 300 ms delay. I almost can’t believe it. Also, there are layout shifts. A delayed ad in the Social tab caused me to misclick and open the wrong message. How is this real?

I guess I’ll have to look for a new email client for my Gmail address. Google’s web app just makes me miserable.

edit: I switched to Thunderbird

@ziadkh0 @simevidas We might be slightly biased, but we agree! We even have a handy guide to help get started: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-and-gmail

Huh, so my app is now making me go to "New " app... with ads. No thanks. Is the way? Looking for advice.

thunderbird,
@thunderbird@mastodon.online avatar

@astromecanik @igaraba Apple accounts are a bit trickier, but we're glad you found workarounds. Do you mind sharing what you did to get them working? That might help us with docs and videos to help people switch!

thunderbird,
@thunderbird@mastodon.online avatar

@astromecanik @igaraba Thanks for the link! There is a great Add-on to sync iCloud contacts and calendars with Thunderbird (https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-us/thunderbird/addon/tbsync/) and this video was a great help in setting it up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9u9lXBAGCoc

I still adore this screenshot.

Also, some interesting @thunderbird trivia: In 2004, blazing fast internet access wasn't nearly as widespread as it is now, so Mozilla offered to send installation CD-ROMs to users for $5.95.

@killyourfm This is totally the Fediverse equivalent of your mom sharing your baby pictures - and we are 100% here for it! 🐣 🤣

Hey @thunderbird What is the state of support for IDN? I'm finding a lot of funny UTF-encoding issues all around while trying to configure a mail domain with German Umlaut ü

thunderbird,
@thunderbird@mastodon.online avatar

@frlan Hey there! We have a tracking bug for IDN issues, and this is probably the best way to get future updates! https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1881541

Tips for dealing with different timezones?

Every time I plan on an event in a different timezone I'm confused how to put it in my calendar.

thunderbird,
@thunderbird@mastodon.online avatar

@douginamug @sam Of course! We love putting our team's personality through here, and it's good to know the community appreciates it too.

And thanks for the thanks! It means more than you know. 😊 💙
