Replying to the thread I created thread...


So I have been running Thunderbird OSX and Mulberry side by side for the 
past couple of months. Mostly it is okay and it has become my primary 
mail client (partially forced because otherwise you never really get 
familiar with it).


There are some things that I have not been able to solve with 
extensions/plugins and I thought a summary of these would be useful for 
others who might go down this same route, though obviously YMMV because 
what I use, you may not, and vice versa.


Configuring it to work with my LDAP address book (at Tuffmail) was a lot 
of experimentation, but it does now.


It doesn't display a deleted email count in a mailbox

You can't right-click Match against a specific email to quickly find the 
others in same thread

You can't insert a default domain in outbound addresses if one is not 
specified

You don't have ability to lock folder tabs to a particular folder

There is an issue where it won't close the current window when you 
delete a message (works for some servers but not others!)

You can't change the subject line for messages that are redirected, nor 
can you do bulk redirection of messages

It sometimes fails to continue checking for new mail in a subfolder 
until the application restarted (especially if you wander between wired 
and wireless connections)


On the whole, it is usable - if not as flexible as Mulberry. But you 
probably all knew that.
