[H-GEN] Thunderbird as a replacement for Outlook

[Mal Beaton]

I have been using thunderbird for years.

I think the main gripe I get from people I convert over is lack of calendar

I use the thunderbird calendar extensions and it is fine for me but some 
other people don't like it

There is a project at the moment to have outlook type calendar available 
in thunderbird
see http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/lightning/

it is only basic at this stage

otherwise thunderbird is fantastic
