User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/58.0
Build ID: 20180219150722
Steps to reproduce:
On cross-compiling comm-esr52 (THUNDERBIRD_52_6_0_RELEASE tag) for Windows on Linux using mingw-w64, the compilation throws an error due to the missing SearchAPI.h file in nsMailWinSearchHelper.cpp.
It seems like the header is not included with mingw-w64 but is part of the Windows SDK. Please see the attached log for the complete details.

Unfortunately, neither cross compiling nor win64 are supported on esr52.

Hi Tom. Is it just ESR52 that's not supported or Thunderbird cross-compile in general? That being said, would you be willing to accept patches to fix these issues? I had be happy to submit them if acceptable. Thanks.

We don't do any testing of cross compiling Thunderbird at all.
We'd be happy to take patches that improved things, but I don't know if they would be candidates for back porting to ESR52.
