I've used the original Mozilla suite, Seamonkey and Firefox & Thunderbird seemingly forever. I simply cannot get on with the recent "enhancements" to Thunderbird.
Today I finally bit the bullet and reverted to the 4 year old version 2.
Bliss!
No tabs. No 5 line headers needing the Compactheader add-on. No double spacing all over the place requiring a special theme. No random opening of new windows all the time (never found a cure for this).
And it's FAST.
Why don't they leave things alone?
