Mike has also packaged birdtray, which sits in the system tray and provides notifications of new mail.

Here are screenshots of both 52.9 and 60.2 (general view and reply). I purposely made the text blurry, to avoid spammers.Eadwine Rose wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 4:26 pmJust to get it clear how and such where you see it. Maybe a screenshot?

)

Re: MX 17 Repository: The Thunderbird Thread
Take your time. Keep in mind that the screenshots are shot in Ubuntu 18.10.

Re: MX 17 Repository: The Thunderbird Thread
That's ok.. it's about checking those things you mentioned, nothing like looks.

Re: MX 17 Repository: The Thunderbird Thread
I was just able to test it again and I don't see what you see. All is working in 60.3.1 like 52.9 for me.rasat wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 5:27 pmHere are screenshots of both 52.9 and 60.2 (general view and reply).

Re: MX 17 Repository: The Thunderbird Thread
Not able to test. The 60.3.1 (Debian buster) causes dependency error in both Ubuntu 18.10 (error: libicu63), and in updated MX 17.1 to 18 (error: libc6 (>=2.27) currently using 2.24.
