"Does what it should!"
Version: Mozilla Thunderbird 9.0.1
Pros
Works fine on all email accounts I need to access. Sharing Calendar extension a major plus.
Cons
Still crashes now and again. Synchronising Tasks should be enabled.
Otherwise it'd be a 5 star ratingSummary
Excellent tool to download, organise and Search your emails.
Set-up not for newbies or those too lazy to read instructions! -

"BEFORE YOU PUSH AN UPDATE, SEE WHAT VERSION OF OSX!"
Version: Mozilla Thunderbird 6.0.2
Pros
None because it won't open in OSX 10.4.11
Cons
Thunderbird message said there's an update available. Presuming they know what they're doing, I took it. Now Thunderbird won't open because I'm on OSX 10.4.11. Come one guys even Microsoft checks the O/S version before they do an install / update!
Summary
Do NOT download this if you're on OSX 10.4.11 or earlier! If you do, go back to their site and choose Other Languages, find English US, and re-install 3.1.14. Geez!

"Crashes a lot and slow"
Version: Mozilla Thunderbird 6.0
Pros
It's Thunderbird... sort of.
Cons
Crashes
Gets slow over timeSummary
I've loved Thunderbird for Mac for a long time but with this new 6.0 release, it's pretty bad. On the surface it looks like the same old Thunderbird with all my layouts and settings retained... but when you actually start to USE it and receive voicemail mp3 attachments and switch back and forth between folders containing a lot of messages, etc. the stability and speed I come to rely on just isn't there with this new version. The previous version was very fast and almost NEVER crashed on me but so far this one has only been out for a couple weeks and I've had it crash at least 3 times. Unacceptable.
