    I know! I came in with 2 questions:

    1) How's the Mail.app importing?
    2) Does it work with Spotlight

    These are crucial questions that affect whether I even consider switching, and the info pages say nothing.

  3. Compile your own 64-bit! Here's how : by digitalderbs · · Score: 3, Funny
    You have to compile your own. I compile mine on Ubuntu Edgy 64-bit. This will get you started :
    1. Download source
    2. Run configure with the following command (this solves a compile time known bug in gcc 4)

      ac_cv_visibility_pragma=no ./configure --enable-application=mail
    3. make and sudo make install

    I posted this one to here a few hours ago, thought you might prefer this version of the story :)

    Mozilla's Thunderbird email software has reached version 2.0.0.0. Includes tagging messages, quick navigation through threads, improved (and saved) searches, and (most usefully for some) support for checking .mac and gmail. Reports that Thunderbird 2 may contain a mole were quickly quashed.
  5. Real Ninjas Use Thunderbird by sherriw · · Score: 3, Funny

    I've read lots of posts about how most people use webmail or whatever their ISP gives them. Well.... that may be true but we all know that the really cool ninjas own their own domain so they can create unlimited email addresses, spam-traps, forwards, mail lists and all kinds of other ninja-like cool stuff. Every time I see a techie person who's using his/her cogeco or hotmail address, I just laugh.

    Yes, I am a cool email ninja. :)

    I'd rather let Gmail deal with filtering the SPAM first and then deal with the stuff that slips through.

    Oh... kay?
