json policy was added to TB68 https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/68.0/releasenotes/

For company CA installation I have firefox policy: /usr/share/firefox-esr/distribution/policies.json 

       {
         "policies": {
           "Certificates": {
             "Install": [ "/etc/ca.pem" ]
           }
         }
       }

It works

What is the path for TB policy and filename? mirrored structure did not help /usr/share/thunderbird/distribution/policies.json TB still warnes about certificate

It worked with trick to use system certs, ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkcs11/p11-kit-trust.so /usr/lib/thunderbird/libnssckbi.so with /usr/local/share/ca-certificates && update-ca-certificates and lockPref("security.enterprise_roots.enabled", true);

but better to use new solution

UPD: I checked source. And it is correct, it uses distribution/policies.json But it does not apply niether 

       {
         "policies": {
           "Certificates": {
             "Install": [ "/etc/ca.pem" ]
           }
         }
       }

nor 

       {
         "policies": {
           "Certificates": {
             "ImportEnterpriseRoots": true
           }
         }
       }

       /usr/lib/thunderbird/distribution --> ../../share/thunderbird/distribution

Can you install the certificate using the user interface. I am seeing folks with certificates that are simple not suitable either because they are not issues by certifying authorities (self signed in some cases) or are invalid because the provider is not recognized in the CA chain of trust.

Manuall installation of cert works fine as well as a mail recieving after. The same action 

       with_items:
       - /usr/share/firefox-esr/distribution/policies.json
       - /usr/share/thunderbird/distribution/policies.json

before installing FF and TB, but different result.
