It looks like you are using the latest stable release 0.9. This is the latest release which works with TB2. To get Lightning for the TB3 beta's, get a nightly build. You can find a link to the nightly build for your platform at the bottom of the download page:
Thanks for pointing that out. In that case, my understanding of the issue is not entirely correct. Fact is, that moving messages in Apple Mail in Zarafa 6.03 results in duplicate mails, which in other clients only happens when moving messages between accounts.
Let me enlighten you a bit on the "success" factor for the sysadmin. I implemented this at a very small organization. While it does integrate nicely with Outlook, and handles the calendar and contacts stuff very nicely, it is the first time I am trying to manage a mailserver which blatantly has dropped mail regularly and silently, at least in a previous version. In the current stable version, an imap client cannot delete a mail from any folder. This is fun when a client does not actually move mails between folders or the trash, but copies first and then deletes, such as Apple Mail. Also, an update of the server version to a new main version, i.e. from 5.xx to 6.xx does not only involve a new version of the Outlook plugin on the clients, but also mandates a new user profile in Outlook. That is a lot of work.
I hope that opensourcing this stuff eventually makes it more maintainable, but I have not been able to find out about access to the actual source repositories which might enable actual collaboration on the product.
You can simply combine Xvfb + a simple environment like blackbox + x11vnc to monitor the screen. Run x11vnc on localhost only, and tunnel in through SSH. Very easy and pretty safe way of running a persistent X11 session. See this forum for the exact commands.
I have kind of the same problem over here. The mp3's that I created on my Linux system all seem to be DRM'd with this ogg thing. Anyone has a clue how to remove this DRM so that I can play ogg files on a regular player?
Obligatory references to the caricature of the desperate slashdot audience aside, the blatant sexism of refering to this intelligent, witty and inspiring woman as "gorgeous" almost counters that of tagging every article on the front page as "gay" in the sense of a general derogatory term.
Quality control was never the strongest point of this otherwise very fine and amazingly user friendly distro. Too bad they kept Openoffice.org 2 out of their latest free release, saving it for the club members. That made me switch my customers and myself to Kubuntu.
Support. I can make Linux work for me and my company but not every company can. Where is the Linux Geek Squad? Yea all those scan-disk, defrag, run adaware and scan for virus "techies" give me the creeps but they seem to fill a need. Where can the mythical grandmother go to get a DVD installed in her Linux box or find out how to fix Thunderbird if the mail folder blows up?
That is exactly my aim, to help the average user out with Linux, and I encourage other people to do the same. Even if you will not be able to charge them a lot of money, the reward is in meeting a bunch of nice people and their gratefulness.
Actually, I think such a trampoline is what this is. There is a link on the demonstration page to the real site. Therefore, sites are not actually shutting down.
Being in Europe, I joined immediately after reading this.
I would like to propose a more correct qualification, which would be "vertile". Especially because copyright by default does not allow the proliferation of derivated works, while the GPL does.
Speaking of the GPL as viral is fine, but then mankind is viral, too.
Yes they are. Haven't you seen the beast that preceded this conference bike: the bike cafe?
They're not completely without risk of course, for the inherent combination of drinking and driving. I have actually seen someone getting badly hurt, falling off one of these.
Despite the relevance of this experiment, I feel a disclaimer is lacking, indeed. BOF seems very closely related to XS4ALL. Sjoera Nas herself was XS4ALL's press officer for a long time, until last year.

Alsa? Oss? Esd? Artsd? Jack? Jackit? Wtf? How does one know that you need xmms-alsa.rpm installed when you play music in KDE with this sound system thingy enabled?
And it used to be isapnp+sndconfig. Hell, I used to not listen to music because it was too difficult in those days.
Of course, I do not know if this is the grandparent poster's point. I-tunes is certainly not going to change this situation, and you have pointed out some nice alternatives for sure.

> So far TB 3 doesn't work with the Lightning Calendar add-in so I am stuck with TB 2.X for that.
Eh? The reason I am using Thunderbird 3 beta is because that allows me to use Lightning Calendar 1.0pre.
You should give it a try.

Btw. Slashdot, thanks for fixing that.
True. But contrib means no support, no updates. OOO is just too important to rely on that.

I take play nice to mean work, here. Don't let the parent scare you. There is documentation to help you out.
I, for one, welcome our new overLOTR!
Support includes updates there. You do not get more than a month of updates for your $35.

It's not only old news, I remember this being posted back in 1987 or so.
Personally, I'd rather borrow a book from someone.

My usb memory stick? Completely unreliable under Linux. Have to recover files under Windows.
The cheap bt848 video capture card is a beaut under vlc and xawtv. Stops Windows from booting, though.
