What would we do without e-mails with embedded fonts ?
2. My bank and accounts is becoming irrelevant artifact of the history. Crypto is coming. Globalists are desperately trying to force their CryptoShekel and Digital Dollar in every home. They are about control of EVERY transaction, no one will care about embedded fonts.
But even if they were to succeed, "emails from bank" are soon to become thing of the past.

Was really exited for this new release. First thing I noticed, I cannot write emails anymore without any error message. Darn.
Turns out that no spell checking language was installed then I upgraded. Even with spell checking disabled, sending emails is then impossible. After I added one, everything started to work again. Not the best start, Thunderbird 91.

It takes considerable resources for simple functionality, and yet it readily fails at thing as simple as profile migration, import/export, data rescue etc.
Why do I need all that bloat just to receive a friggin email ?
I switched to claws for mail.

Oh also unlike Outlook it uses native MacOS notifications. You wouldn't believe how Microsoft seems violently opposed to notifying a user the same way every other thing on the OS does.. but they do.Last edited by k1e0x; 13 August 2021, 12:56 PM.

Which is one of the best things about it.
regardless, TB has the option of not loading html, not loading images

Originally posted by some_canuck View Postuhh, why? domains are not allowed to use non-latin characters, hence xn-- IDNs... so why should we allow it for usernames?
speaking of, FF defaulted to hiding those xn-- characters a few versions ago to make non-latin domains look normal, but that sounds like the chance of phishing would increase since there are non-ascii characters that look the same

Add support for non-ASCII characters in recipient addresses

Installed it to have a look and to my surprise it easily configured not only Outlook and Gmail but also Google Calendars Sync and Google Contacts Sync (as long as one remembers to click the little hidden "connect" buttons for calendar/contacts in the setup wizard).
This is the first time I got Google Contacts+Calendar synced without fiddling for days with multiple more or less defunct plugins that only support specific Thunderbird versions, so I see it as a huge progress.
