The newest point release for Thunderbird for Android/K-9 has landed on the Google Play Store, with F-Droid coming soon. We’re starting on improvements to the account drawer, and more customizable icons that stay in one place have landed in this release.

When Thunderbird for Android is ready for release, what will the upgrade path from K-9 Mail look like? Will both apps co-exist? Where does Mozilla Sync fit in?

Happy #TuneTuesday Fediverse! With today's theme of #GhostStorySongs, one epic track immediately springs comes to mind.
A sweeping, intensely emotional, downright heavy song about tragic love, by none other than Nightwish.
This particular live version of Ghost Love Score (from Wacken 2013) never fails to give me chills during its crescendo. And Floor Jansen's vocals elevate this thing to the stratosphere.
Enjoy, rock out, and have a very musical Tuesday!
August was a relatively calm month for team, with many taking well-deserved summer vacations and attending our first Mozilla All-Hands event.
Despite the quieter pace, we managed to hit a significant milestone on our journey to Thunderbird for Android: the beta release of our new account setup interface.

nostr:npub138d7h5k8dj8ajarzxkkxeyrpsnhxnpc6kxlyy3nf76h8kvhm7ygqs8unv3 Hey Jordan, sorry to hear you're having trouble with RSS (especially as someone who also uses Thunderbird with about 60+ RSS feeds).
It's tough for me to troubleshoot this one. Can you please post your issue in our community support forum?
nostr:npub1u52s5rdvsnck3tp86mt65pq4dhmgjlfpuangglq63lvx0thcwpdq2zxcxc I feel like an AI chatbot never would have constructed that sentence.
Putting together words just takes practice. It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be genuine.
Please give a very warm welcome to our newest team member, Heather Ellsworth!(nostr:npub1qkvfx73xz4z7xcppyc7jvz2nrsqvde52lhq370vjyvrp6kewsvmqvjdsph)
She's an experienced software engineer, passionate about open source, & even LOVES writing documentation! She'll be joining our Marketing & Comms team as Senior Developer Relations Engineer.
Heather will spearhead our efforts to build a larger, more engaged contributor community, & will help build the tools and systems to support them.
Exciting times ahead!

nostr:npub1ad53d202scyhv7l5fhj32kry82ap7q33y80rqqnhl3qww4tray7s7m9e3x Hi! You should now be able to manually update your Thunderbird 102 to 115 via App Menu (≡) > Help > About Thunderbird.
(We just flipped this on today)

Happy Monday, Thunderbird family! Our entire team is currently descending on Montreal for nostr:npub100cvdyxn56frnz0p3hx5e2vnl82fphfy5ytw8qs3jpeh64zhwa6qsngkwp All Hands 2023.
For the vast majority of us, it'll be the first time we're all meeting in person. This is ridiculously exciting!
In addition to networking with the broader Mozilla family, we're going to be busy planning out the roadmap for 2024 + 2025, brainstorming new features, and figuring out how to keep growing this amazing community.
Stay tuned!

nostr:npub1nwkm0ahda0vm5tajszk4303lefludyvu9a49q56zynhw985pzmnspt45nj Excellent suggestion. Consider it done!
nostr:npub1uznpf4z3k8kmkr7suy6h226ykzergrd4344jsj8mqnswqu6fxe3sejsuv7 Correct, we haven't enabled automatic updates just yet, but we should be turning on manual updates soon.
FYI: Downloading and installing 115, however, will serve as an in-place upgrade if installed to the same directory as 102.
Curious how to get that shiny new “Supernova” look? Here’s a step-by-step guide on activating Vertical Layout, Cards View, and Tags Mode in Thunderbird 115.

nostr:npub1yxcnuq3ncldnmhz6tu7t6m0k6tlkqjauf535cjs6at7gx0hrt6hstdd0qh This is a great question for the logo's creator nostr:npub13xqdd4gwth9cc8nnyukzfhhvkz7pw05g4fr5gf9vyl8m22t4kwlqc2r9us.
nostr:npub1z7l2qgvp88d5g395j5rm4l3afkg8nfzay6dya45kquchlsm9cr3qx66jz4 AWESOME! We love when people see it...
nostr:npub1vhvlvrmdk8tgpu7nkrlhjua6e0z5cdgfm83qcez7exyh4lhfkxzqzyjr2q Not there since it's more of a forward-looking site, but we'll have it in an archived Github repo.
Some of you have asked where to download the new Thunderbird logo. We're building out design.thunderbird.net, and that's one of the first things we added.
