NC Connector for Thunderbird
NC Connector for Thunderbird connects Thunderbird directly with Nextcloud Talk and secure Nextcloud sharing. One click opens a modern wizard, creates Talk rooms with lobby and moderator delegation, and inserts the meeting link (including password) into the event. From the compose window, you can generate a Nextcloud share with upload folder, expiration date, password, and personal message. No copy-paste juggling and no open links in emails: everything stays in Thunderbird and is stored cleanly in your Nextcloud.
This is a community project and is not an official Nextcloud GmbH product.

Highlights
- One-click Nextcloud Talk – Open an event, choose Nextcloud Talk, configure the room, and define a moderator. The wizard writes title/location/description (including help link) into the event.

- Enterprise security – Lobby until start time, moderator delegation, automatic cleanup of unsaved events, required passwords, and expiration policies protect sensitive meetings and files.
- Seamless Nextcloud integration – Login Flow V2, automatic room tracking, and debug logs in
