Thunderbird basic flaws

[bimosa4010]

There's no "start with Windows" option for those users who wish to do so.
There are many users who want to be notified of incoming mail on Windows startup.

There is also no option to run the program in the background for those who want it.
In this case the program must remain open even after the user closes it, with an active icon in the tray, notifying with an indicator and sound of incoming mail (I am not referring to user minimization in the tray).

The ability to start the application in a minimized window doesn't work.

On android devices, you cannot import multiple gmail accounts if they are not connected to the phone.

If you want more people to donate, fix the above issues.

1. Limited Customization: Thunderbird lacks advanced customization options for user interface elements, which can make it feel outdated. A blast of modern UI updates would enhance user experience.
2. Performance Issues: It can become slow and unresponsive when handling large email archives, causing frustration.
3. Lack of Native Calendar Integration: The absence of seamless calendar features is a notable drawback compared to modern email clients.
4. Inconsistent Updates: Irregular updates often leave users waiting for critical fixes and new features.
5. No Built-in Encryption: Users must rely on add-ons for email encryption, which isn't beginner-friendly.
6. Poor Mobile Compatibility: Thunderbird does not offer an official mobile app like blast, limiting its usability on the go.
7. Add-on Dependency: Many essential features depend on third-party add-ons, which may not always stay updated.
8. Search Functionality: The search tool is basic and struggles to efficiently sift through extensive email libraries.
9. Syncing Issues: Problems often arise when syncing with third-party email services, leading to errors.
10. Clunky Setup Process: Setting up accounts and configuring settings can be a challenge for new users.
11. Limited Support for Collaboration Tools: Thunderbird doesn't integrate well with modern team collaboration platforms.
12. Static Design: The interface design is static and could use a blast of innovation to compete with newer email clients.
