I've been playing with the CLAWS e/mail client recently .  compared to T-Bird it's "meh",-- however: it does interface into GnuPG using the GPGME program .    I was horrified to learn that T-Bird would switch to OpenPGP in order to comply with Mozilla's demand that all code be in _javascript_

if T-Bird is divested from Mozilla to become an independent open source project then the demand for _javascript_ would be of no effect.   And that would be a very good thing   .    hopefully Patrick has saved his C code

If anything, it is the market for stand-alone mail clients that is

modern web-browser. This is probably how a large majority now use
e-mail. Most people cannot be bothered with the effort needed to
configure a mail user agent.
Neither can most people be bothered setting up Enigmail.  That doesn't
mean I want to be without either Thunderbird or Enigmail.

Webmail is so inflexible, such a pain in the ****, and for the most part
doesn't support signing and encryption, at least easily.  After a
struggle I did get webmail working with encryption, but only on Windows,
not on Android.  Receiving a message when you don't have decryption is
frustrating in the extreme.

To be honest, I could live with losing Firefox, but I'd absolutely hate
to lose Thunderbird.
