[xubuntu-users] Thunderbird

[Klaus Maas]

I am a bit puzzeld by the expression "less secure".

Does it mean it is kinda known that gmail carries away any metadata and 
content while Thunderbird doesn't?

Which one is meant to be the "less secure" app again?

Or are my wires crossed? It's Friday evening after all. ;-)

Nevetheless, thank you for relaying the fix!
