The Register explains that Mitchell Baker, CEO of Mozilla, suggested that “the time spent on improvement Thunderbird has not been well used.”
The mailing was ousted by Mozilla sidelined as early as 2012. The amendments entered into applications related almost exclusively to security issues. Above all the news by a team of volunteers.

If the project is closed, which is unlikely to users Thunderbird will mean trouble, because no one will be He worked on ensuring security updates.
