Story: Thunderbird upgrade is released

TB round 2

I've been a fan of Thunderbird since version 0.5 as i was struggling to find a desktop mail client that offered me a simple but flexible solution. I had tried the standard Outlook express and found it ok yet limited in functionality.

The new features in this release are not massive but add some features that were either missing or lacking in certain areas. One of my favourites is the customised tags that can allow you to filter your email quickly and not have the limit of 5 tags as in previous versions.

I handle the lack of calender functionality by pointing the start page in Thunderbird to my Google calender. Works a treat plus as it's web based there's no updating in 2 places and accidentally missing something important.
