K9 is not a Thunderbird fork, it was created as it's own thing. Recently it's been picked up by Mozilla to become Thunderbird for android with the original creator still on board.

    Oh I misunderstood then! I thought I read somewhere that it was a fork.

    It's actually the opposite, TBirdMobile is a fork of K9 (and it's basically just reskinned blue for now lol), they currently have feature parity but at some point (supposedly already, but I guess they delayed it because K9 got an update a couple months ago) K9 is set to stop receiving updates as they fully switch over to TBird.

    I also love K9, been using it since ~2012.

    At least for now, it is just blue K9, but so help me if Mozilla hurts my sweet app I'm gonna throw a fit lol.
