Kitsutsuki email client

Kitsutsuki email client icon

Kitsutsuki is a Mozilla Thunderbird (version 38.9.0 ESR) e-mail client fork, based on TenFourFox and TenFourBird. It follows the same concepts as Fukurou, removing unneeded features and focusing on privacy. It’s built for the PowerPC architecture and Mac OS X 10.5 platform supported (which means it will only work on G5 7450 and G5 CPUs running Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard) and it does have the latest certificates from Firefox ESR128.
