So let me know what you think about these changes down in the comments.The newest stable release of Thunderbird, version 91, is available for download on our website now.

This makes it hard for me to properly appreciate how much of an impact these changes will have on those who use the software religiously. I primarily use email in a browser tab save for the occasional article (like this). Just remember that settings you change in one build won’t affect the other, and you’ll have to set-up all of your mail accounts again. As the download is a standalone binary (not a traditional installer) you can run both apps side-by-side - literally (though not advised)! You can run Thunderbird 78 and 91 side by side However, you can download Thunderbird 91 for Linux to try it out.

Will this update be back ported to Ubuntu LTS versions? I don’t know, is the short answer! I will say that if stability is absolutely essential you’re probably best waiting it out with Thunderbird 78 for now anyway as the latest release is fairly substantial and there could be a few bugs that slipped through the net. You can download Thunderbird 91 for Windows, macOS, and Linux from the official Thunderbird website later today (August 12) BUT you skip the wait and grab the release build from from the Mozilla FTP right now (which is where I snagged my copy from).

ics files, registering as a handler for webcal: URLs, and showing a handy colour-coded category dropdown when creating new events. This includes remote calendar auto-detection, handling of.

Thunderbird’s set-up wizard has a new look and a number of new features, plus a location: you now set-up and connect accounts in a new tab rather than yet-another floating window/dialog (which is something Thunderbird is infamous for).Ī clutch of enhancements to Thunderbird’s built-in calendar feature (yes, it has one these days) also features. Multi-process should result in a performance boost too. While it keeps email in a single process, and other features like the integrated calendar in separate ones. Thunderbird 91 runs in multi-process mode by default, a feature that’s been a long time coming. Keen to know more? I bet! So let’s look at this release’s highlights. But for now, those who want to try the latest features (and there are a lot of them) need to download Thunderbird 91 directly.

Quite a lot, based on the sheer length of the official Thunderbird 91 release notes!Īnd it seems that this release is such a major upgrade that users of Thunderbird 78 -you’re not misreading that is the preceding version number- can not upgrade directly to the new build, not yet anyhow.Ī future release will re-enable in-place upgrades to allow users to upgrade Thunderbird 78 to 91. Fans of the Thunderbird email client will be eager to go hands-on with the latest release, which is now available for download.
