Mozilla Thunderbird 0.1 released

[Fotix]

What's New

Since this is our first milestone release, everything is new! A complete list of Mozilla Thunderbird work can be found here. Here are some of the highlights:

* Customizable Toolbars and Mail 3-pane

Toolbars can be customized the way you want them. Choose View / Toolbars / Customize inside any window. Mozilla Thunderbird also supports a new vertical 3-pane configuration (Tools / Options / General), giving you even more choice in how you want to view your mail.

* Extensions

UI extensions can be added to Mozilla Thunderbird to customize your experience with specific features and enhancements that you need. Extensions allow you to add features particular to your needs such as offline mail support. A full list of available extensions can be found here.

* Contacts Manager

A contacts sidebar for mail compose makes it easy and convenient to add address book contacts to emails.

* Junk Mail Detection

In addition to automatically detecting junk mail using the same method as Mozilla Mail, Thunderbird also sanitizes HTML in mail marked as junk in order to better protect your privacy and give peace of mind when viewing a message identified as junk.

* New default theme

Mozilla Thunderbird 0.1 sports a crisp, fresh and attractive theme, based on the amazing Qute theme by Arvid Axelsson. This is the same theme used by Mozilla Firebird, giving Thunderbird a similar look and feel. Thunderbird also supports a growing number of downloadable themes which alter the appearance of the client.

* Stream-lined user interface and simplified Options UI.

* Integrated spell checker.

The screenshot looks fantastic! If only it supported Hotmail without something like Hotmail Popper :(

[kujemer]

Outlook does the job for me.

How do I get it to check all my accounts when I select "Get Mail". It only checks the account that is currently highlighted in the left section.

Also is there any signature support? I can't find an extension on that page and I can't find it anywhere in options.
