Mozilla Releases Thunderbird 3 Beta 4 With New Search Tools and Tabbed Email
We've been following the beta releases of Mozilla's e-mail application Thunderbird 3 pretty closely over the last few months. It's a terrific free, cross-platform, open source alternative to the native e-mail apps that come bundled with Windows and Mac OS X. Thunderbird 3 also integrates nicely with Gmail, making it a great option for people who want to stick with their Web-based email but want the additional features of a desktop email app.
Mozilla released Thunderbird 3 Beta 4 this week, and it sports more than 200 changes over the past beta release, including new search tools, tabbed email messages, and better IMAP folder synchronization. I've been playing around with the new beta version for a couple of days now and I like what I've seen so far.
Mozilla's Thunderbird E-Mail App Out In New Beta Version
Beta 3 of version 3.0 of Mozilla's Thunderbird open source e-mail application is now available for download, for Windows, the Mac and Linux. You can get it here, although it's still classified as for testing purposes only. There are also release notes, and a list of known issues available. Version 3.0 is a major upgrade, and has been in the works for more than a year. Here are some of the enhancements.
Over 40 Free, Must-Have Open Source Resources
Occasionally, we at OStatic round up our ongoing collections of open source resources, tutorials, reviews and project tours. These educational resources are a big part of the learning mission we try to preserve at the site. We regularly collect the best Firefox extensions, free online books on open source topics, free tools for developers, resources for working with and enjoying online video and audio, Linux tutorials, and much more. In this post, you'll find an updated set of more than 40 collections and resources. Hopefully, you'll find something to learn from here, and the good news is that everything found in this post is free.
Zimbra or other mail server to pop mail from third parties
I'm looking to have my mailserver pop mail from 3rd party sites like gmail and then have a single point from where my clients can check all consolidated emails. The specific requirements are: 1) pop mail from several mail servers 2) make mail available to clients like thunderbird 3) allow my clients to respond directly, but set the appropriate 'reply-to' address depending on where the mail came from. I realize this is easier to do by just getting thunderbird to check mail from multiple servers, but was wondering if I can use this for my mail server to do.
Good 'Getting Things Done' application
Hi - any ideas on a good GTD application that I can use? I have tried 43 Folders but am looking for something I can install locally and use that to follow David Allen's best practices. Any ideas? I have already set up Thunderbird to manage my email, but not sure how to do the same for all other tasks and projects.
Any recommendations for a SugarCRM plug-in for Thunderbird?
The Sugar plug-in for Outlook works great, but I recently switched to a MAC and started using Thunderbird as my mail client. Am now looking for a plug-in that will really make my life a lot easier!
Mail client for Mac OS X
Have a bunch of email on outlook. Want to move it to the Mac. What's the best way to do this? Don't want to spring for Entourage, and Thunderbird on the Mac doesn't import a pst file on the mac. Any good tools out there?
