Log Message:
Update to thunderbird-0.5 (Solaris/sparc will be updated when builds
become available).

Changes since 0.4:

*  New Features

We now support the notion of multiple identities per mail
account. This makes it easy to have several email addresses which end
up going into the same account. Read More about how to hook this up.

Thunderbird 0.5 includes Secure Password Authentication using a
new cross-platform NTLM authentication mechanism for POP3 and SMTP.

Option to turn on the Mozilla 1.x style folder columns in
Thunderbird (Tools / Options / Advanced / General Settings).

A new Palm Sync Address book conduit is now available for 0.5.
You can now do a one way sync, PC -> Palm or Palm -> PC, by changing
the hot sync conduit setup. We now prevent duplicate cards in
Thunderbird address books when syncing with Palm categories. Numerous
improvements with the initial sync.

A new, improved version of the offline extension is now
available for 0.5. Please read the installation notes in this document
about how to first uninstall old extensions.

Improved Spell Checker including a new US dictionary.

Ability to paste names or addresses from a spreadsheet directly
into the addressing widget of a new compose window.

Improved profile migration from Netscape 4.x.

* Recently Fixed Bugs

If a new message arrives while you are reading a message, we no
longer scroll the message body back to the top.

When saving an IMAP attachment, we no longer re-download the
attachment from the server.

Saving an attachment now brings up a standalone progress window.

Copying a message to a Sent Folder now shows progress in the
progress window.

When saving or opening an attachment, the progress dialog now
reports accurate progress information.

We now mark IMAP messages read in a folder if they are deleted
or moved to another folder. This fixes incorrect unread counts when
checking folders other than the Inbox for new messages.

LDAP searches now honor the directory search filter property.

Ability to paste a single cell of data from Microsoft Excel into
the compose window body.

Problems with IMAP folders three levels deep not showing up when
you are not using the IMAP subscription model.

Tools / Options / Attachments / Attachment Folder setting is now
remembered.

Linux builds no longer crash when viewing HTML messages
requiring a JAVA plugin.

Improved handling of apple double encoded attachments from OSX
clients.

No more new mail alert notifications when all incoming messages
are Junk.

"Remove from server after x days" has been implemented for POP3
mail accounts.

* Performance Improvements

Faster folder loading.

* Improved Stability and Polish

This release is based on the Mozilla App-Suite 1.6 final branch
and includes all of the stability work that went into Mozilla 1.6.
