Thunderbird 1.5 Released

Scott MacGregor writes: "The final release of Mozilla Thunderbird 1.5 is now available for download from getthunderbird.com. Users of RC1 should see the update soon. If you are using RC2, then you already have 1.5 final."

"Thunderbird 1.5 introduces several new features including a software update system, spell check as you type, built in phishing detector, auto save as draft, and support for deleting attachments from email messages. Message filtering has also been improved with new filter actions for replying and forwarding. Saved search folders can now search folders across multiple accounts."

"More details can be found in the Mozilla Thunderbird 1.5 Release Notes, and the support forum staff is available for questions. "

"I wanted to thank everyone in the mozillaZine community who helped test the alphas, the betas, and the release candidates that went into this release. Thank you for trusting Thunderbird with your email throughout the development and release cycle for 1.5. I'm looking forward to working with all of you on 2.0 and beyond!"

Piece of garbage. Uninstalled it and went back to Thunderbird 1.06.

Uh, would you care to be a little more descriptive of what you ran into?

Interesting. I just downloaded and installed T-bird 1.5. It went without a hitch. Works perfectly.

Roger that. I am also amazed that in the last 3 computers I've bought the spell check function in Outlook Express has been grayed out. Why would something so basic be left out? It is my understanding (correct me if I'm wrong) that Bill Gates wants people to buy additional software like Office or Excel to make it work. Screw that. I downloaded a little program that works great and cost nothing.
