Claws mail has an official users mailing list, which, I believe, is
hosted and administered by the application developer, who also answers
queries on the list.
Thunderbird email has no official users mailing list, but has two
unofficial users mailing lists, hosted on groups.io, with a different
priority for each mailing list, and, each of those lists, is run by
volunteers, with no support on those lists, from Thunderbird or its
developers.
Thunderbird developers, and, the Thunderbird organisation, have yet to
adapt to using email (it is a bit like the oxymoron "military
intelligence", as referenced by the character played by Danny de Vito
in the movie of that name - Thunderbird developers and the Thunderbird
organisation, have so little regard for email, that they do not
provide official users mailing lists, for announcements, providing
support, etc - some of the operating systems, on which email
applications run, such as Debian, and Ubuntu, are far more adept at
using email - the Thunderbird organisation, has yet to come to terms
with the use of email).
I find the lack of a mailing list rather ironic.
I think that is rather a euphemistic way of putting it...

It is a bit like
"What operating system do you use at home?"
MS Windows developers: "Linux, of course. Windows? You've got to be joking!"
