Thunderbird update warning

[darkoshi]

My Thunderbird email program prompted me to update, and thinking it was one of the usual monthly updates, I clicked to allow it. Typing the new version number into my notes file, I realized it had jumped from v60.9.1 to v68.4.1!

Checking the Add-ons Manager, it shows that the 2 add-ons I had been using have now been disabled as "incompatible with Thunderbird 68.4.1".

I'm still using Thunderbird 3.0.11. Works great! It seems to me that you can depend on software to loose functionality and to break add-ons with every update.

Yep. Not every time but often enough to make one wary.
