I used to run various flavours of Linux including Fedora, Ubuntu and Suse on Intel Pcs so am not frightened to dig in a try things but really don't know where to start.  Indeed ran my business on Linux for a number of years before transferring to Apple.

Can any one recommend a working Linux distro for the pine 64 2GB or do I give up and buy a Raspberry?

Firefox is still known to be broken, don't know about Thunderbird. Ubuntu Xenial with longsleeps image works fine for me with the Pine64+.

Did just try Thunderbird, it worked fine for me also, could add my account and read mails...

Still a linux newbie with several EEE-PCs, PI's, LattePanda and some Desktops/Laptops running Win10. Now also proudly using Pine64+ 2GB and gigabit LAN
