Latest Thunderbird Release 68.0

I just got this today. I believe it is just released, although the release notes says August 15, 2019.

Very quick major new build. Options are more like Firefox now. Nice build.



Thunderbird — Release Notes (68.0) — Mozilla

I am not being offered this from the normal update route, hmmmmmm

It is still showing 60.8.0 on the download page also

Not directed at you specifically TC. Just stating what I see

Directory Listing: /pub/thunderbird/releases/68.0/

I have it download, but hesitant to install it. It might make my TT DeepDark not work and have my Tbird with white partially or all over my UI

It came in to me via PatchMyPC updates. I can't find the release link either. But it doesn't say Beta anywhere on my install. T-Bird has been slow in the past to update sites, so give it a while. I just got it about an hour ago.



ah! Didn't see your new post with the link. Thanks.

If that's a Legacy Extension, it may not work. But 68.0 follows a lot more like Firefox now, with the options and menus.

I have mine set to all dark with the colors like your pic now. Before when I tried the 68 beta, my Events bar on the right was bright and I mean like staring at the sun bright white. It is so annoying when I bring up Tbird, but I do not leave it up on my other screen unless I am reading or moving mails. If it doesn't work in the new one, I will have to try to put the old one back on here. It caused a mess the last time and I had to totally remove Tbird/reinstall it. I could always just have MR run before I install it. Much faster and easier lol.

TT DeepDark only works up to 61* as of now, like it has said for a while now.

You can turn that right pane as dark as you want and the text any color, and the links. It has the universal rainbow color picker now.

Cool, I am running MR now, in the case something goes awry. Thanks TC

This is a hunk of mine, you see it matches the light blue in the background color.
