Thunderbird 102.3.2 is a bug fix update only. It does not include security patches. The official release notes on the Thunderbird website lists one change and more than a dozen fixes.

According to the changelog, Thunderbird attempts to use POP CRAM-MD5 authentication even if the server is not advertising support for the feature.

The new update for the email client makes several important changes. One of the bigger fixes addresses a deadlock when checking for POP3 messages on servers. If the mail server "was slow or non-responsive", it could result in the locking of the POP3 folder.

The team of engineers addressed a hang issue in Thunderbird, which occurred when events after the year 2035 were added to the Calendar. Speaking of Calendar improvements. several Calendar specific issues are fixed or improved in the new release:

  • Performance of recurring event date calculation has been improved.
  • Quarterly events on the last day of the month were repeated one month early.
  • The event reminder window did not close after selecting snooze or dismiss.
  • The new event button was displayed incorrectly sometimes in the Today Pane.
  • Creating events from the Today Pane used the wrong day.
  • Whitespace was handled incorrectly in calendars after upgrading from Thunderbird 91.

Other changes in the new Thunderbird release include fixing a CardDAV server sync issue, missing contacts from LDAP on macOS address books, and several chat related fixes.
