AFAIK, in term of number of users, Thunderbird has about 20
million users and some Mozilla sources say only 7 or 8 millions
are individual users. So I guess the 12 other millions represent
the professional users.<br>

Possibly professional, but not necessarily. There's some factoring
that gets applied to the metrics, I don't know what the exact
details are, but I know that some people we don't see so much
(e.g. not everyone logs on every day), and some people choose not
to do the update checks (or redirect to their own update system).<br>

If it is anything to go by, my main extension's Daily user base
drops by around 60% (from 25,000 to 15,000) every weekend, which
(assuming figures are correct) to me definitely suggests a large
corporate / professional user base. Usually minor (4%) growth
between Sat and Sun, so I guess these are home users who don't waste
their rSaturday with Emails.<br>
