I used thunderbird for a while, but now that sylpheed-gtk2 is stable
enough and has all the features I need (imap4 with ssl, pgpg mime
support etc) it serves me far better and is more powerful.
Not to mention that thunderbird is a huge bloat, it's memory footprint is
a joke and the gui response is a dog even on 2Ghz machines.
The only area tbird does better is html rendering, but I can live
without that.
