So I discovered this fork of the Thunderbird email client called Betterbird. I like it thus far and I am going in that direction. I hate how Thunderbird is offering a Pro version to start monetizing it. I'm making the switch. Betterbird has much fewer glitches
#Tech post...
I keep my contacts in a #CardDAV address book on my own #Baikal #DAV server, and my Betterbird email app has no problem accessing this.
What it can't do is merge 2 contacts!
It's 2026, we almost have flying cars, how is merging contacts not possible?

Alright #Betterbird and #Zoho users. Running into an issue where when I send an email from BetterBird, it seems to be sending twice. When I look at the email threads on the Zoho app on iOS, it shows two sent messages at the same time instead of one.
What settings should I look into to find out what’s doing this?
In #Thunderbird & #Betterbird:
Edit > Settings > Composition > [x] Check for missing attachments
The button "Keywords…" next to it allows for changing the associated trigger words.
#Flatpacks are great until export time.
I'm just going to have to get good and start installing #betterbird from tar
Fortunately the 'birds personal information programs have super robust copypaste features for events, so completely redoing two events calendars was kind of NBD (One was only one kind of event, so paste over dates... Nearly non-task, were that a thing.)
It's just that unBettered #mozilla software takes a nitcomb to de-spysetting...

I just recently learned about two "new"(?) e-mail clients for Linux:
Aerion, which says it's inspired by Geary. https://aerion.3df.io
And Betterbird, which is Thunderbird with quite a few extra bug fixes and small features, like support for systray icon in Linux. https://www.betterbird.eu/
Anyone have any experience with any of these?
