The v2.0 release of Thunderbird, the Mozilla email client, has been released. You can nab it for Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux locally from AusGamers right now.

hope someone releases an extension that allows people to get hotmail through it, since it supports gmail now

*sigh* .. still haven't fixed the bug with deleting folders on an IMAP server yet :(

What bug with deleting folders using IMAP? :p

Does this version autoupdate?

I think this is one of the only programs I rarely ever update.

Really don't want to risk losing emails (yes I backup regularly).

Is that where you delete a remote folder through other means, but it doesn't disappear in Thunderbird?

Whenever I try to delete the folder it comes up saying it doesn't exist, it's something to do with the deleted items/trash folder.

With IMAP when a folder will have sub folders your supposed to add a / to the end of it but since the deleted items folder is called "Trash" instead of "Trash/" it won't move the folder into it..

Or some s***

Just use IMAP, then you don't need to worry about backing up :) Set it to download your emails as well so you have a locally stored copy.

Meh! I'm running version 1.5.0.10 (20070221), Auto update isn't picking the update up...I guess I'll have to uninstall and reinstall :(

Edit: Just uninstalled Thunderbird. Installed the latest version. Picked up my existing mailboxes and settings just fine. All of my IMAP accounts and my POP3 accounts and email ;)

I like the new look too :)

I haven't decided whether I want to even bother trying this yet, or if, like 1.5, Mail.app is just going to s*** all over it still. I'm too scared it'll just be an utter waste of my time.

Danm you Microsoft, not making Outlook 2007 for Mac.

Assuming it's the same as Firefox, 1.5 and 2.0 are considered different "branches" and don't auto-update between them (yet - I believe 1.5 branch expires next year sometime).

Yeah...that kind of sucks. Ah well, the reinstall went about all good. By the way...you're the noob :p
