Brief Hands-On Report--Mozilla Thunderbird 2.0.0.9 is Out

2004–09November 15, 2007Bill FoxReviews
Mozilla released Thunderbird 2.0.0.9 their stand-alone email client. It is available for download within the application via "Check for Updates..." under the Help menu or as a stand-alone file from this Mozilla Web page.

According to Mozilla, 2.0.0.9 has a security fix:

MFSA 2007-29 Crashes with evidence of memory corruption (rv:1.8.1.8)

We downloaded and installed 2.0.0.9 via "Check for Updates..." with no problems. In several hours use we encountered no problems. Better yet, Thunderbird seems to respond a bit faster when clicking actions in the menubar. [Bill Fox]
