Title:
  Thunderbird is out of date for two months when Thunderbird 60 was
  released

Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Thunderbird is one of the most used email clients. Thunderbird 60 has
  been released on 2018-08-06 what is two months ago
  (https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/60.0/releasenotes/). As
  usual there have also been fixes for at least eight critical and high
  security bugs (https://www.mozilla.org/en-
  US/security/advisories/mfsa2018-19/).

  3) Firefox and Thunderbird have been updated quite closely to the
  upstream releases even for old LTS releases.

  4) Thunderbird got no update since 2018-07-03
  
(http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/t/thunderbird/thunderbird_52.9.1+build3-0ubuntu0.18.04.1/changelog)
  despite the new version 60. For upcoming Ubuntu 18.10 there even is an
  older version 52.7 version available
  (https://packages.ubuntu.com/cosmic/thunderbird). Debian Sid has a
  60ish version (https://packages.debian.org/sid/thunderbird) that may
  be reused.
