It was only in 2022 that they decided to merge the projects, and there hasn’t been much on its face to show for it, but I gather that the back-end and behind-the-scenes work will eventually get it to the point that MZLA Corp will feel comfortable giving it the Thunderbird name.
I just hope this doesn’t add bloat or I’ll go back to bluemail… To me the point of K9 Mail is that it is a small simple app that does what I need without ads and nonsense.
Thought Thunderbird didn’t have an Android client, always knew about K-9, but never connected the dots /facepalm

Thunderbird is not exactly known for its bloat or ads, so doubt this would happen.
