In space, a supernova creates the building blocks of creation. In a nebula, those elements nurture new possibilities. Thunderbird 128 Nebula brings together and builds on the best of Supernova! Find out what’s new in our initial 2024 release.
We’re happy to announce the release of K-9 Mail 6.800. The main goal of this version is to make it easier for you to add your email accounts to the app with Thunderbird’s autoconfig mechanism. With another item crossed off the list, this brings us one step closer towards Thunderbird for Android!
The Thunderbird Project enjoyed a fantastic 2023. From my point of view – as someone who regularly engages with both the community and our team on a daily basis – the past year brought a renewed sense of purpose, sustainability, and excitement to Thunderbird. Let’s talk about a few of the awesome milestones Thunderbird achieved, but let’s also discuss where we stumbled and what lessons we learned along the way.
A big Android progress report to carry us into 2024, including some awesome community contributions, Android 14, user experience improvements, improved account setup, and more!
Dear translators, thank you for all the work you’re putting into making K-9 Mail — and eventually Thunderbird for Android — more accessible by translating it to so many languages ❤️
A change was made in Thunderbird 115.0 that rejects the use of the SHA-1 algorithm in digital signatures of S/MIME emails. Read more to learn about this important change, and how it might affect certain users.
More improvements to account setup, purging old code, OAuth 2.0 fixes for Yahoo and AOL, and more in our monthly Thunderbird for Android update.
During August 2023, we managed to reach a significant Thunderbird for Android milestone: the beta release of our new account setup interface!
Great forward progress on the New Account Setup, some Material 3 experiments, and more in this month’s Thunderbird for Android progress report.
Apparently our July has been so busy that we didn’t find the time to write up the progress report for June. But a late report is better than no report! Let’s check in on the development of Thunderbird for Android.
Our journey to transform K-9 Mail to Thunderbird for Android involves more than just improving the user interface and adding new features. K-9 Mail is already an important part of the open source ecosystem on Android, and because it lays the foundation for the future of Thunderbird on Android, we believe it’s important to invest in the security health of the software.
With this year’s version, we’re delivering much more than just another yearly release. Supernova represents a modernized overhaul of the software – both visually and technically – while retaining the familiarity and flexibility you expect from Thunderbird.
Thunderbird for Android gets one step closer, as K-9 Mail integrates Thunderbird’s Autoconfiguration feature for new accounts.
We asked Jon Hicks, the creator of the original Firefox and Thunderbird logos, to re-imagine his iconic design in light of Thunderbird’s exciting future.
