Hello Dear Thunderbird and Lightning Community!

Microsoft is removing their local Outlook calendar from Windows OS at the end of this year, and have already started to remove the direct to accessing it through their regular updates.

As I am looking for a local, reliable Calendar that would be on top of that open source, I found out Lightning as a further add-on/extension to Thunderbird.

Given the general context I have mentioned in the beginning, this is an historical opportunity for the open source community to raise Lightning as a major alternative to Outlook Calendar (and not only Thunderbird globally).

Why not offering Ligthning also, as a pure STANDALONE, local (with online calendar for people who wish it), but at east as a local possibility without NEEDING to instal Thunderbird as a whole?

That would make a lot of sense.

Thank you very much and great Kudos for all your great work!!!

Cheers :)

I use gmail IMAP server with Thunderbird. I "save" attachments to my local drive and the "delete" them. The intention is to save space on the server. While Thunderbird shows the attachment has been removed (a line across the file name followed by the size "0 bytes"), on the sever (login directly with browser) I see two copies of the email, one with attachment and a second without it.

Same behavior if I try to "detach", instead of "save" followed by "delete".

It does not change even after I compact the folder (Inbox), nor if I restart Thunderbird.

I have tried to check/uncheck Message Storage>Server Settings> Clean up ("Expunge") Inbox on Exit. No difference.

Is there a way to accomplish what I need? It seems Thunderbird creates a copy of the original email with the attachment removed, but doe snot delete the original (except that locally it is invisible??) Thanks.

Hello,

Recently I opened Thunderbird and it automatically added the following folders to my account:

https://www.imagebam.com/view/MEX6LYC

All the generic yellow folders below the Deleted trash can icon suddenly appeared and they weren't there or weren't shown before. I right-mouse clicked on the account folder, went to Subscribe, unticked the folders that I don't want to subscribe to (all the yellow ones were there), restarted Thunderbird and they all still appeared and the boxes I unchecked, had just rechecked themselves.

I don't want them shown. Is there anyway to fix this?

Thanks
