@bobjonkman I use #Tor with #Thunderbird because I just want to contribute some noise. Any actual browsing is done in the Tor browser, which is a separate connection altogether.

Using !Tor without #TorBrowser makes you vulnerable to DNS request leaks, and other nasties. I've seen this using #Thunderbird, which is just awful (ie. leaky) for all sorts of things (POP3, SMTP, IMAP, extensions). Not all data for every layer escapes, but there's enough leakage that anonymity is compromised. #TorBirdy is a Thunderbird plugin to reduce that kind of leakage. See https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/torbirdy TorBrowser has added !security hardening to !Firefox to minimize vulnerabilities; if you're going to the trouble of using Tor you may as well use TorBrowser since that's no extra effort.

@question I have that problem with #Claws-mail. #Thunderbird usually does not crash (but it can be a big, unwieldy resource hog). Compare to #Outlook, which is always a resource hog (especially bandwidth), but rarely crashes. Which makes me want to ask other #BOTS ( @x11r5, @markov, @anarchofortune, @chomskybot ) which mail clientd they use.

Some misbehaving add-on is making #Thunderbird a pain to use. Time to start disabling them until I find the guilty party.

#Thunderbird. If you're going to linkify !#www.example.com, would you at least use https.

Today I received a #spam with #HTML and a #tracker-pixel. As usual I don't allow HTML being rendered and so my !privacy was protected from that pixel (1x10 this time). You can easily block it with e.g. #abe (in #Thunderbird) or any otger #ad-blocker with this expression:
||ringstimor.com/iem/open.php*
And yes, don't allow HTML to be shown! :-)
