Why don’t you guys grow up and just charge money for the application like every other successful app? Stop begging for contributions and just charge a fee for the app. I think you’ll find you’ll do quite well and you’ll stop nagging the rest of us who are paying. You all are stuck in this FOSS ideology. It doesn’t exist, Yes, there have been quite a few “Free“ applications developed, but they were funded by someone donating. Usually some liberal cause. Just charge for the app and move on. You will find that you will have a steady stream of income and you’ll be able to develop it more consistently. You might be able to innovate. Who knows, you might even be able to develop a UI that doesn’t look like it was designed in 1995

Suggestions are always welcome. We are just volunteers here to assist in the use of Thunderbird, nothing else. We don't vote, we don't make decisions. If you wish to have those in higher positions to see your suggestion, I encourage you to go to connect.mozilla.org and post your suggestion in the IDEAS section. Thank you.

Suggestion: since you are one of our donors (thank you), you may wish to turn off the request for donations that appears when Thunderbird starts. You can do that at settings>general and untick the option to display the start page.
