Cons
Con Development slowed to only focus on stability and security
Mozilla Thunderbird has slowed down its development of features to only focus resources on security and stability.
Con Outdated interface
Thunderbird's interface is very outdated and unpleasant. It feels more like a Windows XP application than like a modern MacOS one.
Con Terrible integration with macOS
Simple things - drag/dropping pictures doesn't work, for instance.

Flagged Pros + Cons
Con MACOS integration is terrible
imap does not work - developer skills is next to none for make it working.
Horrible support, simply not able to set it up to work properly.
Email writing is in plaintext only or back to legacy (HTML 1) level, i.e. no way to configure for able to send nice richtext emails. if you have multiple email and you are a super user, probably better to check other solutions. e.g. em-client (once they will fix the v8, could be a nice choice). me personally still using v7 but that is 100x better than this.
I was hopping to have a nice reliable solution but my final conclusion is: THANKS but NO - for thunderbird.
