Exchange/Microsoft365 account support built into Thunderbird now!

Thunderbird users have asked us for this for years and now it is here. Enjoy.

For nerds: the architecture built for this opens the door for JMAP support.

Getting closer to releasing Thundermail, Thunderbird Appointment and Thunderbird Send to the world.

Built on open source and open standards - we're working to make a suite of tools that help people break their reliance on big tech (think Microsoft O365 and Gmail).

Looking forward to sharing more.
