The only thing that it lacks is the native support of Tray, I just use the discontinued extension FireTray.
Anyway, just checked the new version and installed it, it looks fresh and nice, great job!
I currently have Thunderbird installed from apt but pinned to an ancient version that allows Lightning (the calendar tool) to work. (Newer versions broke Lightning on Linux, although I can't recall the failure mode.) Maybe I'll try out Thunderbird 60 on my work computer to see if it works better now... It's funny, I actually only use Thunderbird for its calendar these days, not for email.
Syncing with CalDAV/CardDAV or Google Calendar/Contacts has always been problematic and apparently this is the very first version where you can edit single entries of an recurring calendar event. This does not help in building confidence in Thunderbird as a PIM.
Anyone have any idea about this affects Linux? I am using Mint, and in the past the suggestion has always been "update through your repository" not with a download...
Is it different this time for some reason?
Gee I'm still on version 11. I tried updating once, got a ton of useless crap like calendars and shit and reverted back. Email is one of the few things that I want something very basic and crude.
Thunderbird is a great email client but I don't trust it when it comes to calendars and contacts.
