No. The user would normally get a dialog window with the email address already filled in and all they had to do was click "Next" to get to the dialog window to enter the password. Now I have to fill in my email or phone number. Entering the email address and clicking next brings up the window to fill in the password, showing my email address and avatar associated with the account. Typing in the password and clicking next brings up the "Mozilla Thunderbird Email wants to access your Google Account" dialog window. Clicking the "Allow" button is where it fails. No problem using my account in 68.2 or 70.0b1 or 72.0a1 with the production profiles on Windows 10 or Linux.

The google oauth stuff looks the same to me, we still have the same authorizations we had before. There weren't any messages from Google either. The only thing I can think of is that there is apparently a token rate limit, but it's not clear to me what that applies to, and there's no data for how many tokens we're granting per day, so I have no idea if it's even working right.

So I don't know. Maybe Fallen has some idea what could be going on here? Do we have Google contacts we can ask about this? As of this moment, gmail auth is broken for all users and the error message may as well be 'something is wrong'.

I believe to remember that it has been done automatically before Google's recent change, Is I noticed that now I had to check for the user as I do have multiple accounts.

Good questions. a) we're not forcing updates. we're using the normal update process. b) we're not doing 60.9.1 as a first choice because what if something goes wrong with that update, or it is insuficient to fix the issue? 68 is a better platform from which to iterate c) we planned to update users from 60 to 68 anyway Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1850651/comments/50 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2019-11-03T00:52:31+00:00 Mozilla-bugzilla-f wrote: Nevertheless, since 68.x breaks compatibility with so many extensions, many of which will never be updated, it would be a nice gesture to release a 60.9.1, given how severely Gmail and Google Calendar are broken on all prior versions. You wouldn't have to rejigger the update process that's already set to lift people up to the 68.x branch; you could simply make 60.9.1 available under https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/ for those who know to look there. Of the 5 add-ons that I use: * 1 was updated (I haven't yet had time to test it). * 1 was reimplemented as a separate MailExtension by a different author (again, haven't yet had time to test the new version to confirm everything still works). * 1 was apparently updated to the new packaging requirements, but doesn't actually function. * 2 seem to have been abandoned by their authors and there's a good chance they'll never be updated or reimplemented. So with only 2 out of 5 of my add-ons (at least theoretically) working, it'd be nice to be able to keep a working version of 60.x around, and just be aware not to view untrusted emails with it, since it won't be getting any more security updates.

I woke up this morning to a computer that had Thunderbird 60.x running and a dialog box saying to click here to restart Thunderbird with this new (broken) version of Thunderbird. I didn't ask for this ergo I was forced! Note I had been running the new Thunderbird (68) on a laptop but not my desktop. I was not impressed. Many extensions were broken so I was waiting for them to be updated and working before I would update my desktop but you (thunderbird not you Dan) forced this update on me.

If you have the 'Automatically install updates' option selected - note this is selected by default - then Thunderbird will auto update at the appropriate time. You would then prompted to restart. What do you mean by 'this new (broken) version' ? Do you only mean you are using addons created by various users/authors and those addons are not working ? If yes, then Thunderbird is not broken. You may discover many addons can be updated / some are in the pipline / some issues can be fixed by alternative ways. Suggest you ask a question in the Support Forum to see if something can be done. Or are you refering to the bug discussed in this bug report which claims the update has fixed?

You can select the profile want in the profile manager or via "Help > Troubleshooting Information", about:profiles. We're working on improving that. To my knowledge, Thunderbird's Calender Lightning will work in any version you install. For security reasons we must eventually discontinue old versions and migrate users to the new supported version. The update from 60 to 68 has been a bit bumpy for some users which we regret.

This would also be Google's task to inform users - not just developers. 2.)

Many Firefox and Thunderbird add-ons have continued working properly for years after their last update. Also, the Thunderbird ecosystem is a lot smaller than the Firefox one, so chances are much greater of a particular specialized add-on being the only one that implements a particular bit of functionality, thus there is a greater chance of needing to rely on a piece of software that hasn't been updated lately. And only a small minority of Thunderbird add-ons have the potential for network-facing security holes, so the argument against continuing to use unmaintained software for security reasons doesn't apply to most of them.

Oh! Thanks for the heads-up on that, Alex! I see that not only was it made available under https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/60.9.1/ as I was suggesting, but doing an update in 60.9.0 now updates to 60.9.1 instead of 68.2.0.

Ugh, and it doesn't even ask you at install-time if you want to go with your old settings or a fresh profile, the way that such software as the Nvidia drivers, VLC, etc. does it?
