– in the Windows XP start menu when registered as the default web and mail clients, FF is described as “Firefox” yet TB is described as “Mozilla Thunderbird” – the next and previous message (forward and back) buttons are different from Firefox 1.0 Are they extensions for Firebird only, for Thunderbird or both of them?!?īefore it hits 1.0, hopefully they’ll improve the branding and appearance consistency, for instance: Talkback.xpi 0 15:58 311k Mozilla extensionĪre those important?

I’m using it not only for mails, but for newsgroups, and I’m able to actually search the bodies of the messages.
