Subject:	SCOUG-Help: Thunderbird Question...?

Content Type: text/plain

Jordan,

Thanks for the encouraging information. But, can you explain why
extensions labeled as being for Thunderbird actually install to Firefox?
I guess because they affect browser, not mailer, functions. So why not
list them as Firefox extensions. My logical brain gets adled easily.
