Mozilla Thunderbird 0.2

What's New
The following list of progress highlights is summarized from a more complete change log. Here are some of the highlights:

* Footprint and Performance

Since 0.1, we have made excellent strides in reducing code footprint and improving performance. The download file size for Windows has been reduced by 1.5MB and is substantially faster than 0.1.
* Improved Default Theme

Arvid Axelsson continues to improve the crisp, fresh, and attractive theme based on Qute, his amazing theme for Mozilla Firebird. Updates include new icons for the options dialog, and improvements to the icons for both the mail and compose toolbars. Also added are new taskbar icons for Windows and dock icons for Mac OS X.
* Improved Spell Checker

The spell checker now ignores quoted text when composing a reply (HTMLand plain text), and also ignores any URL inside the message body.
* Redesigned Options Dialog

The 'Options' dialog got theme updates (see above), a streamlined 'Advanced' panel, and a new 'Attachments' panel for managing behavior when opening mail attachments.
* Improved customization

The Compose window toolbar now supports a 'Quote' button. The Mail window toolbar now supports a 'Previous' button.
* Improved Stability

This release is based on the Mozilla App-Suite 1.5 beta branch.

The enigmail extension does not seem to work anymore (obviously it needs updating). But I have not spotted any other problems- just some features not implemented yet. A great email client overall, and it's still at 0.2 beta status.
