[Discussion] FireFox & Thunderbird

[Carl Kappen]

Chuck,

I was wondering what the "!L" meant.  Paul must have set it up that way 
since Thunderbird, FireFox, and Seamonkey all have the "!L" in the name. 
I have Thunderbird and FireFox running, and now that I can click on 
links and open the browser, it is doing everything fine.  The only other 
thing I didn't like about Thunderbird and FireFox is the menu items were 
in different places and were not named the same.  That took me a lot 
longer to set up, but I found them eventually.

If I do switch can I set them up to have all the e-mail and bookmarks in 
one place and shared?  Now I have my old machine with e-mail up to 
4/20/07 the new machine from 4/20/2007 on.   I wouldn't want to have the 
e-mail in three places.  It would be nice to transfer all the saved 
e-mail from the old machine (Mozilla), to the new one, if they would be 
compatible, and shared with both Thunderbird and Seamonkey.
