	Installing Thunderbird as additional software
	Thunderbird is no longer included by default since Tails 7.8 (May 2026).
	You can install Thunderbird as [[additional software\|persistent_storage/additional_software]].
	A new version of Thunderbird is released in Debian shortly after each Tails release, because both Tails and Thunderbird follow the [[release calendar of Firefox\|https://whattrainisitnow.com/calendar/]]. As a consequence, until Tails 7.5 (February 2026), the version of Thunderbird in Tails was almost always outdated, with known security vulnerabilities.
	By installing Thunderbird as additional software, the latest version of Thunderbird is installed automatically from your Persistent Storage each time you start Tails.
	To install Thunderbird as additional software:
	Choose Apps ▸ Tails ▸ Persistent Storage to open the Persistent Storage settings.
	Create a Persistent Storage if you don't have one already.
	Make sure that the Additional Software feature is turned on.
	Turn on the Thunderbird Email Client feature.
	Close the Persistent Storage settings.
