It will offer the installation of a 3rd party add-on (Owl) which supports that protocol. * Thunderbird now compatible with other WebExtension-based FileLink add-ons like the Dropbox add-on * New WebExtensions FileLink API to facilitate add-ons * Fix decoding problems for messages with less common charsets (cp932, cp936) * New messages in the drafts folder (and other special or virtual folders) will no longer be included in the new messages notification * Thunderbird 60 will migrate security databases (key3.db, cert8.db to key4.db, cert9.db). * Address book search and auto-complete slowness * Plain text markup with * for bold, / for italics, _ for underline and | for code did not work when the enclosed text contained non-ASCII characters * While composing a message, a link not removed when link location was removed in the link properties panel * Encoding problems when exporting address books or messages using the system charset. Messages are now always exported using the UTF-8 encoding * If the 'Date' header of a message was invalid, Jan 1970 or Dec 1969 was displayed. Now using date from 'Received' header instead. * Body search/filtering didn't reliably ignore content of tags * Inappropriate warning 'Thunderbird prevented the site (addons.thunderbird.net) from asking you to install software on your computer' when installing add-ons * Incorrect display of correspondents column since own email address was not always detected * Spurious 
 (encoded newline) inserted into drafts and sent email * Double-clicking on a word in the Write window sometimes launched the Advanced Property Editor or Link Properties dialog * Fixe Cookie removal * 'Download rest of message' was not working if global inbox was used * Fix Encoding problems for users (especially in Poland) when a file was sent via a folder using 'Sent to > Mail recipient' due to a problem in the Thunderbird MAPI interface * According to RFC 4616 and RFC 5721, passwords containing non-ASCII characters are encoded using UTF-8 which can lead to problems with non-compliant providers, for example office365.com. The SMTP LOGIN and POP3 USER/PASS authentication methods are now using a Latin-1 encoding again to work around this issue * Fix shutdown crash/hang after entering an empty IMAP password
