Other bug fixes and changes:
* FileLink provider WeTransfer to upload large attachments
* Thunderbird now allows the addition of OpenSearch search engines
from a local XML file using a minimal user inferface: [+] button
to select a file an add, [-] to remove.
* More search engines: Google and DuckDuckGo available by default
in some locales
* During account creation, Thunderbird will now detect servers
using the Microsoft Exchange protocol. It will offer the
installation of a 3rd party add-on (Owl) which supports that
protocol.
* Thunderbird now compatible with other WebExtension-based
FileLink add-ons like the Dropbox add-on
* New WebExtensions FileLink API to facilitate add-ons
* Fix decoding problems for messages with less common charsets
(cp932, cp936)
* New messages in the drafts folder (and other special or virtual
folders) will no longer be included in the new messages
notification
* Thunderbird 60 will migrate security databases (key3.db, cert8.db
to key4.db, cert9.db). Thunderbird 60.3.2 and earlier contained a
fault that potentially deleted saved passwords and private certificate
keys for users using a master password. Version 60.3.3 will prevent
the loss of data; affected users who have already upgraded to version
60.3.2 or earlier can restore the deleted key3.db file from backup
to complete the migration.
* Address book search and auto-complete slowness introduced in
Thunderbird 60.3.2
* Plain text markup with * for bold, / for italics, _ for underline
and | for code did not work when the enclosed text contained
non-ASCII characters
* While composing a message, a link not removed when link location
was removed in the link properties panel
* Encoding problems when exporting address books or messages using
the system charset. Messages are now always exported using the
UTF-8 encoding
* If the "Date" header of a message was invalid, Jan 1970 or Dec 1969
was displayed. Now using date from "Received" header instead.
* Body search/filtering didn't reliably ignore content of tags
* Inappropriate warning "Thunderbird prevented the site
(addons.thunderbird.net) from asking you to install software on
your computer" when installing add-ons
* Incorrect display of correspondents column since own email
address was not always detected
* Spurious 
 (encoded newline) inserted into drafts and sent email
* Double-clicking on a word in the Write window sometimes
launched the Advanced Property Editor or Link Properties dialog
* Fixe Cookie removal
* "Download rest of message" was not working if global inbox was
used
* Fix Encoding problems for users (especially in Poland) when a
file was sent via a folder using "Sent to > Mail recipient"
due to a problem in the Thunderbird MAPI interface
* According to RFC 4616 and RFC 5721, passwords containing
non-ASCII characters are encoded using UTF-8 which can lead to
problems with non-compliant providers, for example
office365.com. The SMTP LOGIN and POP3 USER/PASS
authentication methods are now using a Latin-1 encoding again
to work around this issue
* Fix shutdown crash/hang after entering an empty IMAP password
