Here’s what’s happening with Mozilla’s Thunderbird email client these days.
We’re working on the Thunderbird 3 release, currently on beta 2. To support the release, we are working on improving our documentation for writing Thunderbird add-ons. Thunderbird developers will notice that there has been some housecleaning and some new material over on the Thunderbird extension area of the Mozilla Developer Center.
You can help! You can be a beta tester. Or you can dive into writing Thunderbird add-ons. Or you can help us with the documentation project. We’re particularly looking for people to write “how-tos”: short blurbs that contain code snippets illustrating how to do things with Thunderbird extensions. There are some topic ideas here.
If you’re new to the Thunderbird email client, you can download the latest stable version here. Thunderbird add-ons are available here.

How do I get to thunderbird on my notebook that only speaks Spanish to me so far?
question: windows 7 does not have a email client can I use t-bird for this or do I have to use the proposed windows live ( something I don’t want to do)
or what choices do I have?
Hi Randall. You certainly can use Thunderbird for your mail client on a Windows 7 machine. Download it here: http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/. If you need any help with configuring or using it, check out Thunderbird’s Get Satisfaction support site: http://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla/products/mozilla_thunderbird. Also, there are lots of articles on the MozillaZine knowledge base: http://kb.mozillazine.org/.
Enjoy!
