Comment:

 Replying to [comment:4 ioerror]:
 > If the user has Tor 0.2.3.x, they get basic stream isolation.

 Please briefly explain why/how.

 > Until Thunderbird supports SOCKS username/passwords, we can't really do
 anything about this issue. Please file a bug with Thunderbird and we'll
 implement it in TorBirdy when they support it.

 I don't think it is reasonable to close this ticket and to leave it to
 chance if a Thunderbird socks username support feature request is posted
 against Mozilla.
