One of the bugs has been reported as fixed yesterday: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=902580
“Privacy enhancement: Create option for local time disclosure via Message-ID header”
On Mozilla’s side this has been pushed today as “Use securely random Message-ID to avoid fingerprinting” https://hg.mozilla.org/comm-central/rev/a8573d4c67292962f9dd9b8f51496e9f62bbedb7

I need to check in which upstream version this will be released exactly.

Both issues now have landed patches:

=> partly merged but not yet released.

=> merged and probably available in Thunderbird 45.
