Keep GUI application running after VNC logoff
i got myself a cheap "emailserver" by installing Thunderbird with a lot of filters on a raspberry pi. My Idea was to forward all my emails to a single email adress and filter spam as well es specific adresses.
Therefore, i could access all my prefiltered email from an android client who doesn't support filter on it's own.
Problem is, my raspberry stops working after i log out of vnc connection, most likely because the GUI shuts down at some point.
On Console only, i would just use 'screen' for this purpose. But i have no idea how to do this with windowed applications.
By the way, i could not manage to get thunderbird running headless, thats why i installed the gui in the first place.
Device: Raspberry Pi 3B+
OS: Raspbian with default GUI
Any Ideas?
