In fact, go beyond the default Gnome applications and this is basically what you're left with.

Mozilla is not "stopping" Thunderbird development, it has just decided that: "continued innovation on Thunderbird is not the best use of our resources given our ambitious organizational goals." And it's pulling people off the project. But it's not stopping? Right. This, according to a letter shared with "Mozillians" ahead of the official announcement to be revealed on Monday. Recipients were asked not to share the letter, blog or tweet about the news until then, but obviously someone out there didn't agree with that plan.

Originally posted by RahulSundaram View PostWrong again as usual. It is very much possible to do that and extensions are already available as I have pointed out before. If Thunderbird wants to integrate with GNOME better directly, there is nothing stopping them however Thunderbird has been in maintenance mode by Mozilla and likely won't recieve any major features anymore.

Furthermore, it's the Mozilla Organization that is placing Thunderbird into maintenance mode, they've regulated feature enhancement to the community instead through plugins and code pulls, so there's nothing saying it won't receive major features.

"We have come to the conclusion that continued innovation on Thunderbird is not the best use of our resources given our ambitious organizational goals. The most critical needs for the product are on-going security and stability for our 20+ million users."
I wonder how many times you can be wrong before you stop arguing.

Read under 'What's New' and 'New'. Those look like new features to me.
And what plugins? No plugin that I have tried has worked as described, even when making Thunderbird the default Email and Calendar application.

Originally posted by RahulSundaram View PostYour link validates my point very well. No major new features As for extensions, you claimed it is literally impossible to do that and that is clearly not the case since the extension that I posted works fine for me.
Actually, if this is such a non-issue, why hasn't anyone actually gone and replied to the blog post here (http://sgros.blogspot.com.au/2013/12...underbird.html) and actually either told the author he's full of shit or actually helped him?
Rahul, since you have so much time to argue with someone on a forum, why haven't you taken the initiative to go and fix this?
