Thunderbird 2 @ FileHippo.com

[MarcLister]

Just wondered if anyone else has downloaded this. Not out on Mozilla.com yet but should be soon. I have to say I really like this new version. The improved email alert is quite stunning. Haven't really noticed much else new apart from the colour scheme.

Here's a Mozillazine post. You can download it from Mozilla now (here), and I'd expect Update will catch on soon (though if that's "soon" like with Firefox, I wouldn't hold my breath).
There's a list of changes here.

Personally, I'd be extremely wary of these other sites, simply because they have a habit of posting pre-release versions and calling them final - I found one trumpeting that Minefield was the new name for FF3 today
