    I hope it works better than the old netscape suite of products. Man was that a nightmare...

  2. Exchange by pickapeppa · · Score: 0, Redundant

    The number one thing preventing a Mozilla e-mail client from doing what it's web client is doing is its inability to interface with an Exchange server. Like it or not, Exchange is the standard in most workplaces these days and that isn't likely to change any time soon for a variety of good reasons. I can use Firefox at work, I can't use Thunderbird.
