Thunderbird 1.0 Takes Aim At Microsoft's Outlook Express | |
|
||
| Time: 08:44 EST/13:44 GMT | News Source: InformationWeek | Posted By: Brian Kvalheim | ||
On the heels of the success of its open-source Firefox browser, the Mozilla Foundation on Tuesday will release an E-mail client intended to be an alternative to Microsoft's Outlook Express. Thunderbird 1.0, available as a free download at www.mozilla.org, is designed to work with Firefox 1.0, the browser released in November that's cutting into the market share of Microsoft's Internet Explorer. Mozilla developers are working on a related calendaring application for release in 2005. | ||

Been using it for a couple of months now. I turned to Mozilla Mail to combat Junk and was very happy to see Thunderbird come out. Mozilla is just plain ugly.
It has plenty of features and great support for IMAP. I just wish it could rival Outlook with an integrated Calendar and a more robust interface. But I'm perfectly happy to wait... its free and its a damn good e-mail client. |

| I've certainly liked what Ive seen, and if you want your hotmail, dont forget to download 'HotMail Popper" which allows Thunderbird to download Hotmail emails. |

Hal-
I've been using Sunbird (Moz Calendar) recently. It sux pretty bad. Its better than 6 months ago but it still sux. I've seen evolution before but never knew about a Windows port. That would be super if they would. |

"Maybe their next step is to add features to be comparable to Outlook."
Makes sense. It seems that open source is intent on copying everything that MS does. |
