I just installed Thunderbird 68.22 on a new machine and find out that the

need to be torified? Thanks for any enlightenment. - eli

It is alas worse than that: somebody needs to look at the new 68esr and
evaluate it for privacy flaws, and nobody has had time + expertise to
do it. So there is no Torbirdy for recent Thunderbird because nobody
has made one:

It even looks like it is not possible, see:
https://redmine.tails.boum.org/code/issues/17149#note-6
and https://redmine.tails.boum.org/code/issues/17219.
This also means that you will have Tor support for Email in Tails.

The same happens to Enigmail:

cheers!
