Is this email from thunderbird support team or is a bogus email?
I received an email notifying me that my account is almost full and giving me instructions on how to renew my account. I just wanna check if that email is really from mozilla thunderbird support or is a bogus email.

The wording of the messages from the 'provider' is a little off. It may be a phishing attempt.
Contact your email provider using the contact information found on an old bill or use a previous contact address that you have successfully used in the past.

The messages appear to come from - freightforwarding@btsuganda.net but the reply-to address is from a different domain - aotailidaweii@163.com.
The latter address has been reported as scam

Thunderbird Support is not an email provider and would not send a message like this. I suspect that it is a scam.
