Yes, I have voice announcements, I recorded to announce the identity of certain messages, that were added to the Thunderbird message filters. That has worked well through a number of Fedora releases but stops wit Fedora30.

Thanks for responding,  Bob


Hi Bob,

Idea.  Go get FC29's rpm and load it.

https://mirror.sfo12.us.leaseweb.net/fedora/linux/releases/29/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/t/thunderbird-52.8.0-1.fc29.x86_64.rpm

# dnf remove thunderbird
The remove will not destroy your profile.

# dnf install thunderbird-52.8.0-1.fc29.x86_64.rpm


And put an entry in dnf.conf to keep it from updating
     /etc/dnf/dnf.conf
     excludepkgs=thunderbird    (multiples use a space as a delimiter)

The only draw back is that you will forget you excluded it.
If that is the case, you will wonder why dnf does not see it.
What?  NEVER happened to me!!!  Well maybe once.

:-)
