It doesn't seem that conceptually different from what companies do with products like Blender, where sponsoring more development on an existing product is better than rolling an in-house version. That seems to me like about the best acquisition goal that they could have - basically saying, "what exists is good, instead of building our own thing let's just pour resources into what exists." Thunderbird isn't acquiring K-9 to kill it or merge with an additional product, they're buying it so they can increase its development speed and then put their name on it. I get skeptical about acquisitions, but from what I can tell this actually seems like decent news.
