If you use Mozilla Thunderbird as your email client, you’re in good company, as not only does the military use it, but they also contributed code to the latest Thunderbird 3. Alright, so it’s the French military…
In an attempt to revitalise Thunderbird in version 3.0, Mozilla has announced “Mozilla Messaging” which promises significant improvements to the email client—like calendar integration, better search, and a chat app. While the core focus will still be on email, Mozilla seems committed to developing a product that will offer a broader range of communications tools. Whether or not it will be good enough to get Thunderbird back on track remains to be seen. [Mozilla Messaging via Lifehacker]
