Comment (by cypherpunks):

 So, where does this leave regular TorBirdy users?

 Anyone able and willing to take on the following workaround?

 > Thunderbird 68 already only supports !MailExtensions, but legacy
 extensions can supposedly be converted to[wiki:MailExtensions] relatively
 easily: It requires converting the old RDF manifest to a JSON manifest,
 and then in the JSON manifest the legacy key can be used to load the
 legacy XUL extension.
