Hello dear K-9 users!

You probably got a suggested updated for K-9 to "Thunderbird Beta for Testers".

This is just a metadata issue, which displays a wrong name and icon. The update itself is K-9 in version 8.0. You don't get automatically switched over to Thunderbird.

This will probably be fixed in the next index update.

In other news: Thunderbird for Android is available now on #FDroid

@fdroidorg so will those that got auto-updated to it get that corrected to the regular version of @thunderbird or does one have to manually fix this?

@kkarhan @thunderbird

nobody was autoupdated from K-9 to Thunderbird.
The only (auto)update that happened was K-9 (installed version) to K-9 8.0, but with a wrong display text in F-Droid client.

If you want to migrate to Thunderbird, you will have to install it as new app. But you can import your settings from K-9.

@fdroidorg @kkarhan @thunderbird thats not true. I was autoupdated to the thunderbird for beta testers package.

@stevelord @fdroidorg @thunderbird Exactly...

@kkarhan @stevelord @fdroidorg We had a metadata issue last week (sorry!) that made it seem that K-9 Mail was the TfA Beta app when it actually was still K-9. It seems to show correctly in the store now, but again, sorry for any confusion! To go from K-9 Mail to Thunderbird for Android, you'll need to install TfA and then migrate your settings: https://support.mozilla.org/bm/kb/thunderbird-android-import
