Finally! Someone has come out with an add-on to undo the mess Mozilla created with the UI in Thunderbird 11. Rise of the Tools restores the Thunderbird UI back to what it was prior to Thunderbird 11. No restart needed, simply download and then either drag it into the Thunderbird add-ons manager or from within the Thunderbird add-ons manager click on the ‘Gear’ and select Install Add-on From File… This also works with Thunderbird 12 Beta, Earlybird 13 Alpha 2 and Thunderbird 14 Daily builds.

Thunderbird 10 was released on January 31st and still supports Windows 2000 as well as all versions of Windows XP. Bug 563318 (switch Firefox trunk builds to use Visual C++ 2010) has had landed on the Firefox 13 Nightly builds (has been temporarily backed out to address some crash issues).

I realize the last post, Thunderbird ESR Released was a bit brief. I had been waiting to post about the new ESR build until I knew for sure they were going to be released.

I had not seen much about this most of the day and I just happened to be lurking around the Builds forums during a break in my Networking Class tonight when I saw they had been released. I will be having more information about these builds tomorrow and some other…
