Jorg made several comments in the bug report about why that can't change yet such as Calendar/Lightning still uses XUL overlays which were removed from Thunderbird.

Please no. I do not insult anyone but I, me, has no need for a calendar as part of my email client. If I did I would install this extension and support the author/developer.

Up until version 60 I used the ReminderFox add-on for simple to-do lists (that had a date). A simple, mature add-on that does a fraction of what Lightning supports, and doesn't really care what version of Thunderbird you have. I finally gave up (since its clear that Lightning will become integrated eventually) and spent several hours figuring out how to duplicate what I did in ReminderFox in Lightning. Sigh.

"integrated" as in "built-in" and not removable?

Once again, no hurt feelings intended, that would be "Bloatware" for my use of Thunderbird.

""integrated" as in "built-in" and not removable?"

I think so, based on what I've seen in the Thunderbird planning mailing list.

I'm sorry to hear that. Thanks for the information.

It is happening. It is almost there now.

DanRaisch, you marked another post as a duplicate of this one. Can you please put this one over in "Board index ‹ Mozilla Thunderbird ‹ Thunderbird Builds" where that duplicated one was located? It makes more sense to have it under "builds" than "bugs", because it is not so much a bug in the program as it is a change in the entire way Thunderbird "builds" are "built" and operate.

Thank you.

Looks like it has landed.
