Looking into usr.bin.thunderbird, it seems like the line that blocks
.Xauthority is line 113:

Changing this line to:
deny @{HOME}/.[^X]* r
allows thunderbird to start as normal for me.
Thanks for debbuging!
This is basically the same issue as with:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=882048
I have WIP patch that changes how Thunderbird AppArmor profile handles dot
files.
Please test it after `sudo aa-enforce /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.thunderbird`, I
will send it to upstream later:
https://gitlab.com/Talkless/apparmor-profiles/blob/fix-thunderbird-signature/ubuntu/18.04/usr.bin.thunderbird
Especially it would be useful, if you collect DENIED log entries after doing
this sequence:
File -> Open -> Saved Messages -> [Navigate to Home] -> select "All Files"
File dialog tries to read all files to figure out they file type. Since not all dot files are allowed to be read, some
unimportant DENIED messages might appear that I would like to silence.
Thanks!
