schestowitz                                <p>The road to bringing you a great Thunderbird email experience on Android devices begins with K-9 Mail, which joined our family earlier this year. And we’ve been busy improving K-9 Mail as we prepare its transition to Thunderbird for Android in Summer 2023. (Check out our roadmap for updates!)</p>Dec 06 09:17
schestowitz                                <p>Last week we showed you the new Swipe actions in K-9 Mail 6.400. Today, it’s something even more exciting: a completely redesigned message view!</p>Dec 06 09:17

schestowitz                                        <p>A few short years ago Thunderbird was on the verge of extinction. But you saved us! This year we began work on an Android version of Thunderbird, made excellent progress toward next year’s “Supernova” release, and hired more talented software engineers, developers, and designers to help us make Thunderbird better than ever in 2023.</p>Dec 06 09:23
