&gt;So when the crappy HTML Firefox shows up, with way less features than the Firefox of today, remember that this (Thunderbird) was one of the things given up to have it.<p>Please recall that Phoenix&#x2F;Firebird&#x2F;Firefox was born as a lightweight, fast alternative to the bloat of Netscape Communicator&#x2F;Mozilla Suite. Dropping features from an old bloated application is what launched Firefox to fame in the first place.
