I'm not switching to Thunderbird I'm sticking with K-9
Aren't they the same now?
Yes and no
Is there an explanation of the differences?
K-9 was it's own thing, Mozilla came along gave them a lots of money and just forked there project and just renamed it and added their logo
So it's just a branding thing? That was my understanding already, I thought you meant there were functional differences
i'm thinking the mozilla version will be better maintained and have stuff added to it, in the future
It believe that too, the project just received more backing, it hasn't been taken over by a random new group
I'm in the same boat. It is completely fine since the apps only have cosmetic differences.
