User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:63.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/63.0

Steps to reproduce:

I won't donate everything to people who want a big brother society. I think this bug appears since the deal between github and microsoft. I'm sorry to leave you. You were for a long time the most sure, the most userfull, the most complete, finally the best e-mail and RSS app. Tell me when you divorced from Big Brother, if it is not to late, if he hasn't already bewitched you and the full world. (Read 1984 from Georges Orwells as long as it is not censored)


Actual results:

Since 3 days, my OVH account for big mails disappear. I canot configure something else than dropbox which is dangerous for my private life, and my liberty of choice. the filelink OVH module dissapear also and in the help of mozilla every filelink possible disappear except dropbox.


Expected results:

I just want to have the choice were I can put my personnal files with my own confidence, when thet are too big.

Sadly I don't understand your complaint.

The only inbuilt provider for Filelink is Box.com. That will change in the near future when we will also offer WeTransfer.com.

All other providers need to be added via add-on, and Dropbox doesn't even work any more as far as I know.

NextCloud: https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-GB/thunderbird/addon/nextcloud-filelink/?src=search and 
Mega: https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-GB/thunderbird/addon/megabird/?src=search
should work.

Hello,
I am never confident with american clouds before our europeans values are not the same as american values. In USA if you increase money everything can be sold. In Europea, privacy life is not to be sold. I prefer hubic for filelink, but it don't work at this time. Box.com is an american cloud as dropbox. Now, I see that filelink is available with nextcloud which was not the case when I oppened the ticket. Only box was available but no addons. The ticket can be now closed.
Regards
