As a long-time Calypso user, I have recently been using Becky!Mail. It's about the nicest I've found (although I'm not excited about it), and it's not as nice as the no-longer-supported Calypso (soon to be reborn as Courier).
But Thunderbird has peaked my interest. Even in its current alpha state, it's pretty nice. I *love* the spam feature.
A few questions:
1. The mail import function is pretty limited. Are there going to be more ways to import mail, for example, from Becky?
2. I tried creating a user.js file, according to the FAQs to change the destination of the throbber, but (a) it didn't work, (b) there's a prefs.js file that already contains the line:
user_pref("browser.throbber.url", "http://texturizer.net/thunderbird/");
and (c) it still doesn't go to that page. Is it me or a bug?
3. I assume the fact that the toolbar customize functions aren't working is already known.
4. When I composed a new message and selected File>Send Later, the message disappeared. Where'd it go?
5. What are Local Folders and what are they used for?

Very nice!
