We’re celebrating 20 years of Thunderbird this year! It’s been an incredible journey for our users, the dedicated team of contributors who have worked on it and of course our amazing open-source community who has been there every step of the way. 🎉 To mark this occasion, check out this beautiful video by @freehive and see how Thunderbird is ready for the next 20 years.

Our closed beta testers have finally gotten their hands on Thunderbird Appointment, and it seems like they like us! Check out this review from @ZDNet - and kudos to them for trying the self-hosted install as well!

We wanted to give a shout out to @smaury, who found a ReDoS security issue with Thunderbird Appointment. This resulted in us fixing the issue and removing deprecated urls! It's fantastic community contributions like this that makes Thunderbird so much more than the sum of its code. 💙 👏

@kariboka @fidel Both MZLA (which makes Thunderbird) and the Mozilla Corporation (which makes Firefox) are under the Mozilla Foundation, but we are completely separate from each other, including financially. You can read more about this in the original blog post announcing it: https://blog.thunderbird.net/2020/01/thunderbirds-new-home/

@fidel @kariboka Hi! MZLA and Thunderbird are entirely funded by donors. If you'd like help keep our future bright, you can donate on our website at https://www.thunderbird.net

@kariboka Thank you! We're really proud of our design team and developers and what they've done, both on desktop AND on Android!

Do you speak Thunderbird, and either Croatian, Breton, or Gaelic?

All three of those languages have slipped under 70% translation for Thunderbird for Android! Normally this would mean removing them from the app. But we're hoping we can rally some translators to help complete these languages - or at least get them over 70% translated!

The Thunderbird story is an epic of countless individual stories, coming together to make something bigger than themselves. We're sharing those stories in a new series, and our first spotlight is on one of our amazing Bugzilla volunteers.

Arthur helps new volunteers document issues, as well as testing bug fixes. Read more at the blog, and find out how to share (or start!) your own Thunderbird story!

Is your inbox stealing your time and focus like your dryer steals socks? Treating your email like you'd ideally treat your laundry (no floor wardrobes here) can help put you in control of your inbox, instead of the other way around. Read our tips and tricks for putting this method to work in Thunderbird - and as always, we'd love to read about your productivity hacks and practices!
