All things considered, I like Thunderbird, but it has two main issues for
us.

#1 - No integrated & centralized calendar.
#2 - Search.  A number of people have mentioned this to me and I think it
might be the biggest single issue with Thunderbird that I've seen.  If you
have a large number of emails, search in Thunderbird works in strange ways.
It will find some emails that seem totally unrelated to your search term,
and miss the most obvious ones.  I consider myself fairly adept at
manipulating search engines into finding what I need and even I have had
serious issues finding what I want.  It's gone so far that at least one
staff that I know of took to sorting emails into folders by whom they were
received from, then color coding each "thread" differently - simply so the
user could find what they were looking for.
