Is 'Mozilla Thunderbird Email' in the Windows Store maintained by Mozilla?

Thunderbird Installation and updates

I have a few pieces of software installed through the Windows Store, just to streamline updates (especially for LibreOffice). Today, I saw a listing for Mozila Thunderbird Email, by Mozilla Thunderbird.

Of course, I don't want to download or use this if it isn't 100% legitimate. I can't see any press releases around it, but that would sort of make sense. I know Firefox is on the Windows Store, is Thunderbird too?

You are safe with getting Thunderbird there.

The only real advantage with the 32-bit Thunderbird on Microsoft Store is for those users stuck using Windows 10 S. Also only available in English.
