Thundermail -- not to be confused with Mozilla's decades-old Thunderbird email client -- will be an email service similar to Gmail that can be used within Thunderbird and on the web. With Thundermail, you can use either a Thundermail email address or a custom domain. Also, this new 100% open-source email service will never use your email to train AI, flood your inbox with ads, or collect and sell your data. (So maybe it's not that similar to Gmail.) That's a big win for those who are concerned about privacy.

Huh interesting, Mozilla and Proton are having more and more overlap. More choice is a good thing?
