I have not experienced myself any maildir-related issues since the key patches were checked in a few months ago. The IMAP maildir is only used as an offline cache, so there is less risk of dataloss if there are unexpected problems. I have no reservations on using maildir with IMAP, that is what I have been using for many months. (Note that while general comments on Thunderbird 38 are welcome, please do not use the comment section of this blog as a place to make bug reports, or to request support for specific issues). Thanks to all of the volunteers who have contributed to make this release possible! Thanks to the many Mozilla staff who helped out to fix issues! Mozilla is still heavily involved with this release, as we still use Mozilla infrastructure for the build and release process. This is a significant milestone for the Thunderbird team, as it is the first release that has been fully managed by our volunteer team rather than by Mozilla staff. Gmail users can now authenticate using Google’s preferred OAuth2 authentication (which means that new GMail users should work with Thunderbird without special configuration).You can now search multiple address books.Messages can be filtered when sent and when archived. This continues to be implemented as the Lightning extension, but that is now enabled and installed by default. Calendaring is now shipped by default.This release has some significant new features, as well as many, many bug fixes. Thunderbird 38 is now released (actual initial version is 38.0.1 to maintain compatibility with equivalent Firefox releases).
