Version **7.5**, announced 2026-02-26, is worth a closer look—not for flashy features, but for how it addresses a long-running **supply-chain timing** problem with email. + +## Why this release is worth covering + +Thunderbird ships in Tails for people who need IMAP/SMTP without their everyday OS. Email clients are a **high-value target**: they parse untrusted content, handle attachments, and sit next to your identity workflows. Mozilla’s Thunderbird cadence does not line up with Tails’ image-based releases. Until 7.5, that meant the Thunderbird inside a fresh Tails image was **often already behind** the latest upstream release, sometimes with **known vulnerabilities**, only days after a Tails version shipped. + +Tails 7.5 offers a practical mitigation: if you enable both **Thunderbird** and **Additional software** in [Persistent Storage](https://tails.net/doc/persistent_storage/configure/index.en.html){target="_blank"}, Thunderbird is installed as **additional software** so the **latest build is pulled from your Persistent Storage on each boot**. That trades a bit of startup work for **narrower exposure**—a reasonable trade for anyone who actually relies on mail in Tails. + +For readers in **Taiwan** and similar contexts: many people use Tails episodically—journalism, legal support, or personal safety planning—rather than daily. When the preinstalled mail client is perpetually “almost current,” it is easy to **assume** the environment is fully patched. This change makes that assumption more realistic **if** you opt in to the Persistent Storage features and understand the migration prompt when Thunderbird starts. + + + +## Technical changes (short) + +- **Tor Browser** [15.0.7](https://blog.torproject.org/new-release-tor-browser-1507/){target="_blank"}, with a **simplified home page**. +- **Tor** client **0.4.9.5**. +- **Thunderbird** [140.7.1](https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/140.7.1esr/releasenotes/){target="_blank"}. +- Thunderbird now includes a **Mexican Spanish** language pack alongside **Spanish (Spain)**. + +Full details: [upstream changelog](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/blob/master/debian/changelog){target="_blank"}. + +## Getting 7.5 + +**Automatic upgrades** run from **Tails 7.0** onward.
