Mozilla Thunderbird is a redesign of the Mozilla mail component. The goal is to produce a cross platform stand alone mail application using the XUL user interface language. The intended customer is someone who uses Mozilla Firefox (or another stand alone browser) as their primary browser and wants a mail client based on mozilla that "plays nice" with the browser.

Reviewing 5.0 (Jun 28, 2011)
They skipping 4 to match up with firefox numbering. They will continue to use rapid release on thunderbird as well as firefox. It is going to be very hard to use these in an enterprise/education environment now.
Reviewing 5.0 Beta 1 (Jun 3, 2011)
You can tell it's a beta. It has some screen artifact issues (moving the mouse over all the text, etc cleans it up), lacks some IMAP folder functions (like being able to hide folders locally while leaving them still existing on the IMAP server), lacks some feedback options (such as detailed status when checking multiple accounts) and it's about 40% bigger than version 3.1
Still, it's promising. I'll test it on one machine but probably use 3.1 on all the others.

Excellent email client.
Wonder why they are skipping version 4 ?
