Thunderbird is such a great program. Ever since I gave up Mutt as my default email program, I've been using all the time.

One of the richest guys on the planet (Zuckerberg) was using Thinderbird in a photo some time ago I think. Perhaps if he reads HN; they can get an infinite lifeline.

HOLD the phone. Can we confirm this? If so, this 100% furthers my idea of "Stop thinking of tech billionaires of being helpfully creative to the world and having imaginations, they are the exact opposite."

If a normal person were also a billionaire, they'd stop for half a second and call someone and say "hey, make sure Thunderbird is good for forever."

These people can't think that way, they're hampered by the mental defect of "Hmm, what's the angle, how can I make money off this? I can't right now, okay so I'll do nothing."

As discussed in the comments it looks like the Cisco VPN client (when I zoom in I think it's that and not Thunderbird, too): https://twitter.com/andrewheumann/status/745332192457396224

looks more like he's standing near some random engineer's desk, and had that area temporarily cleared for the photo

He doesn't trust $trillion corporations with his mail?
