Hi, I am currently in a transition phase from Windows- to Linux-clients (both running Thunderbird) and have a proposal to ease the compatibility between the new (linux) clients and some server databases (Windows). In my case the latter are used to store emails and do not support all (the characters in) the linux filenames, i.e., they do not support certain special characters like ":", which occurr in roughly every second email.
It seems that there is already a "switch" for that (found here: https://www.reddit.com) within "utilityOverlay.js" [https://searchfox.org/] and in case of a Windows client, the special characters that cause trouble for windows are substituted.
Would it be possible to make this option accessible within linux, too, e.g. via an entry in the settings table - and thus permanent?
