My simple solution: Use a decent mail client and not a third party service like Nabble. Don W3FPR has given a good explanation on using Mozilla Thunderbird and I second that. 72/73, Peter Barry schreef: Tnx Barry W2UP -- View this message in context:

Yes, Mozilla officially no longer supports Thunderbird, but there are still occasional updates, strange as it may seem. Current version is 17.0.7. It's an excellent mail client, and has a plug-in calendar and scheduler. My preferred mail client prior to switching to Thunderbird was Eudora...

Dick, I am surprised to hear that. Is there a statement from Mozilla itself (reference please) or is that just another rumor on the internet? Mine is up to date (thanks to Mozilla) and is more functional for my email and calendaring (Lightning plug-in) than MS Outlook Pro. 73, Don W3FPR On

I can choose whatever font available on my PC in the TB settings. I ditched Live for Thunderbird years ago for it could not spell check in my native language and Microsoft refused to do something about it so... Now my OS of choice for daily work is Debian Linux And XP is nearly history too.

It's not necessarily a rumor. It may have been created by a misunderstanding of a statement from Mozilla in 2012. Mozilla will maintain, and even update Thunderbird, but it no longer will allocate the programming resources on innovating or enhancing the mail client. Maintenance updates

Dick, That article is over a year old, and if the upgraded (not just updated for security) Thunderbird versions that have occurred over the past year is any indication, they are still doing serious development work on it. Look at the major version number - those are upgrades. Other releases
