That looks like a phishing mail to me.
OK. How do I verify or ferret out this to know.
Thunderbird on gentoo is vulnerable?
I've charted my own pathway, via R.P.4 boards and static IP addresses.
That way, I can add whatever I want, test, and just run very few codes
on those arm8 boards.... Sure, this has been on my todo list, as I
prepare to live/work out of a RV. Eventually, I'll add a satellite link,
when all else fails, without large attached files. I'm keeping the home,
where the hub/static-IPs will connect, but I can be home or mobile,
controlling my own email servers. I've just groan very tired of someone
else managing and making decisions on MY email. I've received too many
private emails from folks, with the same sentiment.
If what I do is well documented, then a plethora of folks can have
custom setups, in a well documented fashion. Mine is the hard case with
the eventual address of daily mobility, cellular and satellite comms.
Migration to R.P.4 has been on my goals list too, for a while.
MY goal, via gentoo, is to fix and document this once and for ALL. Your
expertise and the rest of the band of Gentoo folks are deeply
appreciated in this effort. This action has been brewing for a few
years. Email is critical for me, and I do not want vendors dictating its
future for me. Enough is Enough.
