One of the most exciting aspects of bringing Thunderbird Pro to life is the opportunity to build an email service from Thunderbird together with our community, giving users the control and freedom they expect without relying on third party email service providers.

Over the past few months, we’ve been checking in with our community through quick surveys, and the feedback is clear: people care most about Thundermail. We’re listening and working to deliver what you expect as quickly as possible, focusing our resources on building a great Thundermail experience first, with Appointment and Send as power features alongside that foundation. We’re also adjusting the initial price to better align with your expectations.

We’ll be sending out the first wave of Early Bird Beta invites next month so be sure to keep an eye on your inbox. For more updates on development and what’s coming up, read the full April update on our blog.

When you work 9-5, every reason to spend money asap is a good reason.

I'm not team 9-5, so I'm looking for something to make use of 5000 gmails a month other than sign up via Google. Thunderbird won't support this use case.

Edit: Wrong sub forum, it's tech subforum. Bleh. I'm gonna write 2000 words in another subforum about gmail and answer my own question. Like I usually did on BHW.

As I understand it they will eventually offer free accounts to people as they make money, limited accounts it seems.
