I think, Thunderbird will be upgraded to version 115 soon in Debian
stable. Major changes of default UI have been announced.
We got 115 in Sid a couple days ago.
"lipstick on a pig" comes to mind
I have not tried it, so I can not say it is really more convenient or
not. It is possible to switch to current UI style, but I am unsure if
any bugs will be fixed.
there was a Zoom meeting hosted by the Thunderbird guys... I sat in and
asked a couple questions... They were very clear that 115 is cosmetic
only and does not address anything else.
They did acknowledge the problem with the massive .msf file problem.
they had no idea if/when that may be corrected
Just a warning for those who are sensitive to changes of UI. From my
point of view traditional UI of Thunderbird may be improved, but I am
unsure that particular issues are addressed in new UI.
