<p>HI Raymond</p>
<p>For many years I have avoided e-mail clients and just relied on
the browser based gmail.</p>
<p>But I have changed my mind.</p>
<p>Thunderbird enables me to see messages individually and so I can
sort and delete them.</p>
<p>The sorting function on Tbird is more robust as well. It drives
me crazy when I receive an e-mail with a subject heading that is
part of a thread but the message is about something else entirely.
I can find these better with Thunderbird.<br>
</p>
I do not like the Calendar interface on gcalendar. I am hoping the
calendar in TBird will be better.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
<br>

have been using ubuntu for many years now and I still don't
know what is the use of thunderbird.It duplicates my gmail
account,is slow,and seems complicated.I have been trying once
more to use it and it just seems to be a duplication of gmail
(or any other mail service).I'm probably missing something
here but after many bouts with it I still don't get it.I am
wondering why it is always on all the new distros? I suppose
some people like it, I don't.This is one of the rare things
that bug me about ubuntu, because I would never use any other
OS.Thanks.<br>
