New (08/29) Windows, Linux GTK2 0.2 Candidate now available
Same location as the first candidate build:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/ ... -26-trunk/
The build ID in the about dialog will say 08/29.
This respin is from the newly created thunderbird 0.2 branch and contains:
1) A fix for our known issue in the first candidate build: where images were not loaded in news messages.
1a) View source for news messages now works
2) The spell checker crash bug fix.
3) Find in message dialog now works
4) I've changed the way we store background images in templates and drafts. Please help test this to make sure it works. (note we won't work with drafts and templates created with the 8/20 or the original 8/26 thunderbird builds).
5) Rewrap now works in the plain text editor again
6) David Bienvenu had a performance fix for deleting mail marked as junk being too slow.
7) Unlike the first candidate windows build, we no longer register ourself in the registry as the default news client when you make tbird the default mail client via Tools / Options / General. Some folks don't want to use us for news and I need to make this an option before I let it out in a milestone.
Known Issues
-----------------
**NONE**
Could this be the last candidate build for windows? Help test and we'll find out together =).

Looks like a bug I saw on my own homemade build under winxp. But I cannot see the message, only the yellow window and a red "^".
I nearly forget to ask : did you use the "--enable-strip" option in your .mozconfig ?
EDIT: After compiling TB from branch, and removing enable-strip option from my .mozconfig, I got a fully working build !

Not having any problems with /mozapps/content/downloads/pref-downloads.xul now. Expect to see a SuSE 8.2 build within the next 90 mins at the usual location (28.8k sucks!).

Yeah, I can view message source in a newsgroup now to check if my coding settings are OK
BTW I have one question: When I visit a newsgroup Thunderbird expands the thread when the oldest of new posts is or scrolls the list to the oldest of new threads, but I want it to select always the newest thread (do not expand or scroll anything). What should I do?

Newsgroup images display fine now.
All message attributes seem to be retained properly in templates and drafts
Just a very minor glitch..File | Save as | template does not seem to work,
However copy message to template folder works fine, and everything is stored including
the html background. This is desirable in my view.
Also for previously composed messages with background css method the image is broken out
as an attachment...so data is retained.
Nice work Scott..I thought this fix would take a lot longer.

Can you tell me - is it worth to download this RC 1 or is it better to wait until the final version 0.2 is released? I switched from TheBAT! to Thunderbird 2 weeks after 0.1 was released. I found it very interesting - much better than theBAT!, but opera's M2 seems to be much faster and responsive.
I like fast and reliable browsers.... Guess which ones?
