May I take the occasion to remind everybody who understands other
languages (than en-US) to download a language pack or two from
here:<br>

and use quickLocale switcher to test the latest beta to make sure
all Strings are complete for the release. As always I am looking
at the German locale specifically,<br>

<pre wrap="">I for one would like to thank Kent and everyone else who is currently
working on Thunderbird. I admit I was a little worried when Mozilla
announced it was ceasing its active development support for TB, but I
actually feel like it is getting more and better attention now than it
was when it was fully under Mozilla's leadership/control.
Congrats! It looks like TB 38 will be the best release in a long time.
