I hope talk about Thunderbird could be moved to a separate thread.
Current situation is that Thunderbird in OI hipster is working (31.8.0) 
together with calendar/lightning ,
yet recently I experience core dumps sometimes while it is standing open 
for some longer time periods.

It's important to have Thunderbird as valid e-mail application. In the 
time when many people leave their privacy and contacts to webmail 
services, having an effective e-mail client is essential to desktop use.
Thunderbird is not progressing in leaps. With calendar support, 
stability is what Thunderbird user wants.
It is good to have both ESR TB first and then being able to progress to 
newest TB for testing while using it in separate package and vice-versa.
