    I hope you enjoy using Thunderbird, I switched to it a little while back. My Outlook software kicked me out a few months ago by insisting that “Microsoft Office (…) has not been installed for the current user”, very strange as it had been running fine for months.
    I tried a few fixes but couldn’t get it to work again except by setting up another user account on my PC.
    Make sure you add the “Lightning” calendar, also the “Provider For Google calendar” synch tool if you use the big G calendar online.

    Thanks Stevie - so far I’m really liking Thunderbird alot. It came with Sunbird - - is that better/worse than Lightning for a calendar system, do you know?

    I don’t use the big “G” tools online as much as possible.. only for analytics and adsense. Call me paranoid, but I don’t trust them with things like my email / my calendar, etc. :-b

    As far as I can tell they are pretty much one and the same thing, I think Lightning is Sunbird integrated with Thunderbird rather than a stand alone. Could be wrong though, wouldn’t be the first time. :”>
    Also, as an aside, Amazon delivered your book to me last night, I hope to get to grips with it over the weekend.

    I’ve been using Thunderbird for years! It just makes life easier. I can’t wait for them to get the it integrated with the calendar and them make it so that my Palm Treo can sync with it . . . some day . . .

    I’m loving it so far… no problems and it’s very sleek, clean and easy!

    Hi Lisa,

    Thank you for the great xMark theme. I’m new to blogging and not sure how to manage the headers. How do I go about changing the header image on the xMark theme?

    Thanks in advance!
    Dave
