Can I make this change and submit a pull request?
The suggested change will lead to K-9 Mail using thunderbird_ as filename prefix. So it doesn't solve the problem. It just shifts the problem from Thunderbird to K-9 Mail.
As for https://github.com/thunderbird/thunderbird-android/issues/8278#issuecomment-2401751883 , it seems some strings should be adapted in Weblate, so the filename prefix could adapt to both products.
As we're shifting our focus towards Thunderbird I'd rather have it look right on the Thunderbird side and accept that it might not be 100% correct for a niche thing like the filename here, but obviously the better approach would be to make it different per app. I'm suspecting this shouldn't be too difficult to do, would love to see someone give it a try!
