Get Organized
- Thunderbird 3 includes several new features to help you manage your inbox. As you receive email, Thunderbird 3 will help you organize the most important messages to get you through your day.
- Thunderbird 3 allows you to “tag” messages with descriptors such as “To Do” or “Done” or even create your own tags that are specific to your needs.
- Thunderbird 3 features a new find bar that speeds up searches within displayed messages. Thunderbird also offers quick search, which starts showing search results as soon as you start typing in search terms.
- Do you find yourself searching for the same subject or message content over and over? Thunderbird 3 saves you time by allowing you to store this search as a folder. Rerunning the search is just a matter of clicking on the saved search folder in the folder pane.
- Thunderbird 3 offers a variety of ways for you to organize and display your folders, whether by favorites, recently viewed or folders containing unread messages.
- Thunderbird 3 has been updated to provide more informative and relevant message alerts containing sender, subject and message text for newly arrived messages.
- Thunderbird 3 makes it even easier to integrate and use various Web mail accounts from one inbox. Gmail and .Mac users can access their accounts in Thunderbird by simply providing their user names and passwords.
Customize Your Email Experience
- Thunderbird allows you to customize your email to suit your specific needs whether it’s how you search and find messages or listening to music right out of your inbox.
- Thunderbird users can increase Thunderbird’s functionality and appearance using hundreds of add-ons. A Thunderbird add-on can let you place voice over IP calls, listen to music, manage contacts, and keep track of birth dates all from your inbox. You can even change the appearance of Thunderbird to suit your tastes.
- Thunderbird 3 allows you to easily set up message templates to save you time – especially if you have to send the same mail message repeatedly.
- The new Add-ons Manager improves the user interface for managing extensions and themes, making it even easier for you to customize Thunderbird 3.
Secure and Protect Your Mail
- Thunderbird’s security and privacy measures ensure that your communications and identity remain safe.
- Thunderbird’s popular junk mail tools have been updated to stay ahead of spam. Each email you receive passes through Thunderbird’s leading-edge junk mail filters. Each time you mark messages as spam, Thunderbird “learns” and improves its filtering so you can spend more time reading the mail that matters. Thunderbird can also use your mail provider’s spam filters to keep junk mail out of your inbox.
- Thunderbird 3 offers improved support for user privacy and remote image protection. To ensure a user’s privacy, Thunderbird 3 automatically blocks remote images in email messages.
