[Geman]The developers of the Thunderbird email client have released Thunderbird 91.2.1 on October 21, 2021. This is a maintenance update for the 91 development branch, which makes minor fixes. Here is a brief overview.

Older versions of Thunderbird should actually be updated to the 91 development branch. However, this is not yet the case for me. According to the release notes, a setting has been added to disable the automatic interruption of RSS feed updates after a retrieval failure. The update includes the following fixes.
- Recipe address pills in error state could erroneously merge with mailing list pills when expanding the list
- BCC-only messages could not be sent from the outbox
- Vertical scroll bar in the "Conversations" chat panel did not work correctly
- Chat account "Advanced options" dialog did not have clickable buttons on macOS
- RSS feed attachments could not be saved
- Public ICS calendars that shipped with an incorrect content type could not be added
- Setting a CalDAV calendar to update manually had no effect
- CalDAV calendars set to read-only became writable after a restart of Thunderbird
- Default DSN request was not set when using "Edit as new message"
- Saving a copy of a calendar invitation (More -> Save as copy) did not work
- Appointments in the first or last week of a month were not always printed when printing a month view
- Accessibility improvements; clearer display of the focus area
- Various theme improvements, HiDPI improvements
- "Attachments" menu fields for attached files were empty
In general, there are stability improvements. This update doesn't contain security fixes, according to this page.
