@osomon: I'd also kindly ask for more information on what's blocking this update. Thunderbird version 68 - which is the standard mail solution shipping with Ubuntu 20.04 right now - is over 6.5 months old. The upstream version got numerous security fixes over the last half year. Doesn't feel good to have to rely on software for communications that stopped getting updates for such a long time. I really don't want to be pushy, because I know Ubuntu is free software, but I'd like to express my worries that this for many users important question (current versions of browser and mail) doesn't have the focus it should have.
