Good news bad news:
Good for the longevity of competent Open Source email client for Android.
Bad news that Mozilla marketing took charge of the announcement.

Mozilla is perhaps the strongest open source company on the internet, so the collaberation with K9 will result in a better app. Very welcome by me.

Looks like a rebranding followed by changes to the UI to match the Tbird
look at feel.

I use both Mulberry and Tbird on the desktop and my main beef with Tbird
is that it fails to find new folders among my huge hierarchy of around
100 mailing list folders. I regularly create new folders when I join a
new list or get a new correspondent or sign up for a new vendor website.
(I edit .procmailrc server-side to divert the new mail to its own
Maildir folder.) Tbird doesn't automatically add the folder. My big beef
with K-9 is that it's awkward to navigate those folders in it. But Gmail
is just as bad. Folder navigation and configuration (eg. filtering,
per-folder identities) is where Mulberry on the desktop shines, but it's
essentially been dead for many years and crashes a lot. Mulberry is also
quite primitive with HTML and doesn't do images. Which is why I run both
Tbird and Mulberry.
