In addition to the Mozilla and Mozilla Firebird web browsers, the Mozilla project also has an email and news client called Mozilla Thunderbird. This program also welcomed a new release today, numbered 0.3. The changes look like this:

  You can place your signature at the top of a message reply if your reply text is configured to be at the top of the message.

  POP accounts can be configured to remove read messages from the server after X days.

  Windows and Linux versions properly handle binhex encoded mail attachments.

• Performance Improvements

  IMAP has received a huge performance boost and is several times faster than 0.2

• Improved Stability and Polish

  This release is based on the Mozilla App-Suite 1.5 final branch and includes all of the stability work that went into Mozilla 1.5.
