I am looking to see if it is possible to utilize Thunderbird for a very specific use case on macOS.

We would like to use Thunderbird as an email reader only essentially - we do not want new email addresses to be added nor do we want the existing account to be edited.

Is there a way to disable making changes to the client, or at least disable making changes to the accounts added/disable adding new accounts to the client? Locking these options behind an admin prompt would also work.

Bonus points if this is all manageable via a .plist or .js file.

Thanks in advance!
