I am testing Thunderbird 60.0b7 beta version, have not used any previous version.
I would like to store my mail in maildir format so that each message is stored as a file with .eml extension.
Under advanced options "Message store type for new accounts" I have configured: File per message (maildir)
When I view the per-message files, I see that a typical file name is 1528863314782000 without any extension (suffix). I would prefer file name 1528863314782000.eml, because Windows handles .eml files nicely.
The behavior seems inconsistent with the documentation which specifies "using the EML extension":
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/maildir-thunderbird
Is there any configuration setting to control the suffix for these files? Thanks!
Note, someone has previously observed similar behavior using Thunderbird 45 for Linux:
