A look at Thunderbird 2.0 Beta
lisah writes "Linux.com has reviewed Mozilla's first beta release of the Thunderbird 2.0 email client and says that, while it 'won't knock your socks off,' there are plenty of reasons to try it out or upgrade from previous versions. The new Thunderbird does away with the limitations of labels and instead allows users to tag emails to their heart's content, in the same vein as Google's GMail. Developers also tossed in a bunch of other useful features like customizable pop-up notification of new email, better search capabilities, and a neat way to navigate through the history of recently read emails. Mozilla developers didn't get everything right, however, since the account setup continues to be something of a headache."
Mozilla? Integrate with the platform it runs on? You jest, sir! ;)
...can be found here.
I have to say, it looks awesome! Any idea when we can get our hands on it?
I'm too lazy to copy folders around. Thunderbird developers are too lazy to write an import/export function. Stalemate.
I use Icedove, you insensitive clods!
Well, at least Outlook Express does the same thing.
