Mozilla is asking for feedback about Thunderbird and threatening a redesign. Thunderbird is the most feature-rich of the GUI mail clients, but as a result also has a lot of cruft. The goal of the survey is to learn what Thunderbird users think about the current design, what are the biggest drawbacks, what potential changes should there be, and so on. The claim is that the information will be considered before any actual changes are made to the program itself.

So if you rely on Thunderbird for any part of your work flow, speak up now before it ends up unusable trash like M$ Outlook or Apple Mail.

  During his interview, Bryan Lunduke was able to get Ryan Sipes to say the e-mail address you can send feedback to, if you want to give a more free-form response. It's mentioned several times throughout the interview but first mentioned just after 13:25.
