Hi, I like the idea of having Thunderbird in KDE. It shows that we are an open community and welcoming towards "outside" projects and of course it would be also a good PR for both sides. From KDE PIM point of view (but speaking just for myself, not for the team) I don't see any conflicts there. We don't have much to share with them (probably except for hate of obsolete email protocols), but there are certainly things we can learn from each other. As was mentioned elsewhere already, having Thunderbird in KDE can only foster (friendly) competition between the email clients, which I think would be much welcomed and can help push both projects forward.
