What’s New in Thunderbird 78

Did they fix the bug where you have a Yahoo or AT&T account and change the password at the server and when you change the password in Thunderbird it gives you server errors?

Casually I installed Thunderbird today ... but didn't realize the 78 version, it looks great, I love the dark mode!

Would it be wise to link one's Protonmail account with Thunderbird?

It remains end to end encrypted due the fact you have to use ProtonMail's desktop bridge.

This is a pretty significant release:

* Integrated OpenGPG E2EE (fully realized in a future 78.2 release)

* Significant UI improvements

* Integration of calendars and tasks

* Dark mode (though I actually don't get why a GTK application should do this; well-behaved GTK integration should respect dark GTK themes already)

Finally dark mode! Some Windows only add-ons could do it. But now Mac and Linux can too

On windows 10, I have dark mode enabled system wide, but I struggle with most third party dark modes, the contrasts between components is not thought out enough - or in the case of email, styled html emails sometimes don't work on a dark background

Is it possible to turn off the dark mode in thunderbird when the os system wide dark mode is enabled
