I'm on digest mode, which is why my replies are a little while 
after the date they were posted - the digest only came through early
this evening. I've rolled replies to three queries into this email.

 Thunderbird is Mac OS X only. Mac OS X available from 
<http://www.apple.com/macosx/>.

 I've made a note and will submit this as a Request For Enhancement 
(RFE) if someone hasn't already. It might be easy to change, so I 
might submit a patch for the source too.

 You're welcome :-)

 Looking into the matter, I notice that Thunderbird's signature 
facilities aren't as advanced as Emailer's. Another note for another 
RFE :-)

 Thunderbird will do HTML, which is the best way to format your 
email. If you really want to format ASCII email, I'd recommend Email 
Effects X <http://www.sigsoftware.com/emaileffects/index.html>.

 Yes, this is possible. Let me know if you want the details - but 
I'd recommend giving the border a chance to "grow on you" before you 
go about changing it :-)

>PS where does one download Thunderbird for a trial?

 Thunderbird Homepage <http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/>
has a download button on the left. A direct link to the download 
(broken across lines) is <http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/
thunderbird/releases/0.7/thunderbird-0.7-mac.dmg.gz>

Mr. Noyb.
