The Thunderbird team released update 102.7.0 for the email app. The update fixes a number of bugs, but one important change is that the client will not automatically update due to a conflict with Microsoft 365 Enterprise accounts.
The Thunderbird 102.7.0 changelog.
- Localized versions and language packs use the “comm-l10n” library; no changes are required for downstream builds using official language packs
- Fixes an issue where opening too many files when launching the application caused MSF files to be lost
- Copying emails from a local folder to another folder on Windows 7 devices could cause an “Another Operation is using the folder” issue.
- Allow incorrectly formatted email addresses to generate the pill
- Fixes a possible failure to create a security exception for messages sent with a self-signed certificate when the hostname contains capital letters
- Fix very slow S / MIME certificate validation
- OpenPGP key import failed for key blocks with comments containing Unicode characters
- Fix the chat conversation sidebar being too wide in some cases, causing scrollbars to be unusable
- On the Mac, using the “backspace” key to delete an event from the Today pane deleted the selected message
A bug not yet fixed in this update is OAuth2 authentication, which does not apply to Microsoft 365 Enterprise accounts. Due to a critical authentication issue with Microsoft Microsoft 365 business accounts, Thunderbird will not automatically update to 102.7.0.
