If only there were some sort of fork of Thunderbird that didn't o
automatic updates. Oh wait, there is.

And that fork hasn't pushed out a broken 128 which truncated > 4 GB mailboxes of
32bit users down to 4 GB (solved but fix not shipped) and causes some users to
have to repair their IMAP mailboxes 3 times per week:

It is. But you need to keep in mind that the usage of TB/BB varies greatly, some
people have two folders and 20 messages, others have mail back to 1999, 6000
folders and profiles with 20 GB or more. And the program also needs to work for
the "non-light" users.

If you're bothered by automatic updates, why not switch to
Betterbird? It can use your Thunderbird profile, it doesn't do
updates at all(*), and it doesn't nag the way Thunderbird does.

(*) If you want to update Betterbird, you go to the site, download
the installer, and run it. It overwrites the existing version on your
PC.
