Hi,

I'm having a quick look at Thunderbird. I can't find things like how to 
change accounts and simple things like that, and no keystrokes like ctrl J 
to jump to next folder with unread messages and things like that. When you 
use email as much as I do, these things all help, but if I can get the hang 
of Thunderbird I might give it a proper go.

Cheers
Dave
