Please, where is this discussion taking place? I can find no references to using Firefox as an e-mail client. On the contrary, on the Mozilla web site I find: ======== begin quote #1 ===== 17 September 2007 Mozilla Launches Internet Mail and Communications Initiative Mozilla today announced a new initiative to stimulate innovation in Internet mail and communications. Mozilla plans to develop Internet communications software based on the Thunderbird product, code and brand. The new initiative also aims to nurture a robust developer ecosystem in order to drive improvements through open source and community innovation, in the tradition of the Firefox web browser. ======= end quote #1, start quote #2 (separate part of same article) ======= Millions of people around the world rely on Thunderbird as their primary mail application. Nothing will change for current Thunderbird users.
