An email client in this day and age does not receive the attention a web browser does, but Thunderbird has been a steady companion to me over many, many years. Thanks, dev team!
Can you disable 'j' for "move to junk", by now? Worse than not using it for navigation is using hjkl for something else. I cannot not press j by accident. Years ago I had to stop using thunderbird for this.

Re: Thunderbird 91.0
#272It makes me happy that the Thunderbird project keeps going and is getting funding. Granted, I've tried Thunderbird and have used it in the past, but I can't use it as a daily driver. The lack of integration without plugins for CAL/CARD Dav is irritating, and the notifications don't work as well in GNOME. I can't say I'm in love with Evolution, either, but their restore from backup file and no nonsense approach to ema…
A fix for this:
1. Create a label called "Promotions"
2. Create a new filter for Matches: category:promotions, Do this: Skip Inbox, Apply label "Promotions".
The Skip Inbox setting means your inbox will stay clean! You can do similar things for the Updates and Forums categories, but don't skip inbox on those.

#273Huh? No Linux version available?
Why are you saying that? There's a Linux version. Although I'ld expect a Linux user to be using their package manager instead anyway. But maybe Thunderbird should eventually release a Flatpak or Snap or AppImage which are cross-distro. https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/all/
I prefer tarballs for its simplicity and lack of dependency on 3rd party infrastructure.

#274Is it actually out yet? If I attempt downloading from Thunderbird.net, I get 78.13.0, the only way to get 91 is if I select Beta channel.
It's on their FTP server, but I'm seeing the same thing. https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/91.0/

#275Earlier quoted context omitted.
I did back in February, but I'm unlikely to be able to completely accurately recount that now. One thing I do remember is Ryan explaining how just being willing to directly ask people for money has been surprisingly effective. It's also worth putting Thunderbird's relationship to Mozilla in proper perspective: for all intents and purposes, Thunderbird is a completely independent project. Since 2017 ( https://blog.thu…
That's pretty much it. Can confirm, as I am Ryan Sipes. We (Thunderbird) are still 99.9% donation supported, so every bit helps.
Re: Thunderbird 91.0
#276I really like Thunderbird and I use it as my primary personal email client. Just, where can I pay to speed up the development of this feature? https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213945 I find a proper 3 pane view to be essential in 2021
Dumb question, but could you find an open source contributor who knows the codebase and commission them to implement it?

#277Earlier quoted context omitted.
I completely agree. This is what I check every time there’s news about Thunderbird before I consider switching.
What are you using currently? I am limping along with Thunderbird myself but really miss three-pane view.

>The term 'master' is innocent. And it has close to fullest right to be part of the language. Meanwhile, here in the good ol' USA, we might have mucked up that elegant latin lesson a little bit [0] 0 - http://nationalhumanitiescenter.org/pds/maai/enslavement/tex...
I see, but if you take a term like 'bunny'* and then for some reason it becomes - I don't know - a sensational sexual innuendo in south Boston or the whole of the continent, it is not a fault of 'bunny', and one cannot expect that others in Anywheristan start having problems with 'bunny' out of somebody's folly. * the first term I could think of, probably as I am writing from a field having plenty of them nearby.
well that's the funny thing about language - it's very democratized in some ways. After a while, if even 10% of people use it to actively mean something sexual, the majority of people will know that it's meant to indicate something sexual.
You've reinvented dialects.
