        Actually they are working on it, albeit slowly, it seems. Fingers crossed and in the meantime there is davmail.

    I just like the idea that it’s using stalwart as the collaboration server (mail/calendar/contacts) [1].

    I host my own personal mail server with it and have had no issues so far.

    Subscribers to Thunderbird Pro users get 500GB of storage space

    That’s big enough to do disk backups in the mailbox.

      Germany has become kind of a safe haven for a lot of Open Source projects. What’s so bad about it?

        Germany is turning into a mass surveillance state.

          Kind of. But hopefully at a slower rate / more reversible manner than the rest of the world.

            Not kind of. Germany is so ahead in certain aspects Russia copied it. Example: Data preservation. Germany is not a safe haven. Never was, never will be.
