ich777/thunderbird repository overview

⁠Thunderbird in Docker optimized for Unraid

This container will download and install Thunderbird from the preferred branch and language.

UPDATE: Please use the built in updater to update Thunderbird itself.

ATTENTION: If you want to change the language, you have to delete every file in the 'thunderbird' directory except the 'profile' folder.

RESOLUTION: You can also change the resolution from the WebGUI, to do that simply click on 'Show more settings...' (on a resolution change it can occur that the screen is not filled entirely with the Thunderbird window, simply restart the container and it will be fullscreen again).

⁠Webgui address: http://[SERVERIP]:[PORT]/vnc.html?autoconnect=true

⁠Set VNC Password:

Please be sure to create the password first inside the container, to do that open up a console from the container (Unraid: In the Docker tab click on the container icon and on 'Console' then type in the following):

  1. su $USER
  2. vncpasswd
  3. ENTER YOUR PASSWORD TWO TIMES AND PRESS ENTER AND SAY NO WHEN IT ASKS FOR VIEW ACCESS

Unraid: close the console, edit the template and create a variable with the Key: TURBOVNC_PARAMS and leave the Value empty, click Add and Apply.

All other platforms running Docker: create a environment variable TURBOVNC_PARAMS that is empty or like this:

    --env 'TURBOVNC_PARAMS=-securitytypes VNC'

This Docker was mainly edited for better use with Unraid, if you don't use Unraid you should definitely try it!
