Mozilla Thunderbird 0.8 out

as per the title ;)

What's New
Here are the highlights for this Thunderbird release:

* Global Inbox

POP3 users can now combine all of their POP3 accounts into a single global inbox under local folders.
* Comprehensive Data Migration

Switching to Thunderbird has never been easier since Thunderbird can now migrate all of your e-mail data including settings, mail folders and address book data from common mail applications such as the Mozilla 1.x Suite, Outlook Express, Outlook and Eudora.
* RSS Integration

Thunderbird now features a built in RSS reader which allows you to easily subscribe to and read news and weblogs that support RSS.
* Improved Privacy Controls

In order to help protect your privacy, Thunderbird now automatically blocks remote image requests in e-mails from senders you don't know.
* Improved Quick Search

Thunderbird now makes it even easier to manage your e-mail. Quick search now supports many different types of search criteria including the ability to search message body text. Thunderbird can also highlight the quick search terms in the message body.
* Other New Features

Support for using a master password to encrypt saved e-mail account passwords.

Linux GNOME users can now make Thunderbird their default e-mail client (Tools > Options > General).

If your network uses proxy authentication for HTTP, Thunderbird now correctly prompts for proxy authentication instead of silently failing.

Bug fixes too numerous to mention!

It's a great freeware client for sure. The antispam filtering still needs some work, IMHO, not of the caliber of The Bat! yet (which of course is not freeware).
