Well, speaking of Mozilla, Thunderbird has reached the point where I really want a new email client program...perhaps Mozilla being ad-funded is a big part of the problem? In thunderbird I get these glitches where graphics show up meaninglessly on my screen, perhaps derived from HTML emails or something.
Anyways, what's a good email program that can search emails very well, sort them into various folders by rules, and has some Enigmail type integration for GPG? Something that would work in the Debian world and maybe Arch Linux as well? And that would let me use my locally stored cache of like 5+ years of emails?
One of the problems I'm having with Thunderbird is something Cory Doctorow noted years back, when you have over half a decade of emails Thunderbird starts having problems showing them to you accurately when you're searching. You can't read the contents of old emails sometimes, in other words.
Program recommendations?
Mutt, mutt+notmuch, and some other mutts... are simply the integrated, updated and newly maintained neomutt.org these days.

you can find those two strings in the about:config registry and delete them
as far as I can tell, firefox scum does NOT mention the 'issue' here
