The Dollar Campaign For Thunderbird Devs
Robert Accettura writes "In a rather comical spirit, Seth Spitzer (of ex-Netscape fame) is asking Thunderbird users to donate one dollar (or about 0.77 if you're in Europe) to Scott and David, the lead engineers of Thunderbird. Unlike Firefox, with quite a large community submitting patches, Scott and David have been working with much less community aid, and still managed to deliver a very solid product. This is a little way to thank them for managing to do so much with so little to keep our inboxes free of spam and easy to use."
who really gives a flip about Thunderbird?
I do. That's three. I use it for imap.
I give a flip.
I use it daily for heavy e-mail use. Never crashes, works beautifully with both of my imap accounts. I don't see what you find so undesireable about it - I think it is a slim (getting there at least), well designed e-mail client that puts usability at the top of it's goals. I wouldn't trade it for any other client.
