Firefox + Thunderbird crash reports are now going to errors.ubuntu.com

Hi,

I'm happy to keep an eye out.

By the way, why do we use the Mozilla crash reporter instead of errors
for Firefox?

There seems to be significant differences in the number of
plugin-container crashes sent to errors [1] vs mozilla's site [2].

Kind regards,
Bryan
