This is definitely a case of your mileage may vary. But this bug has a mac service attached as a zip. Might do what you want. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606918

I don't have time to look into a service and don't know how to do that at the current time. I don't understand how this can hang around to all these years with no resolution from the developers. This looks like something that has been requested for many years. Thanks for your help but I need something concrete and easy to implement.

I know how it can hang around. 1. I am not aware of any active developers that use OSX. There may be some, but they are few. OSX integration may not be a priority for them 2. Thunderbird is a cash starved community project which has no employees, so development relies entirely on volunteers. 3. Volunteers tend to deal with low hanging fruit. after all spending 3 days fixing something you don't use is not something most people are willing to do.

One thing users of the software can do is make donations. This project can not continue on nothing. https://donate.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/about/
