It has almost been too long since Mozilla provided an upgrade for its email client Thunderbird.

In late 2009, Thunderbird 3 finally arrived and brought massive improvements.

A major new feature in Thunderbird 3 is tabbed email browsing.

The idea is to view separate inboxes or emails in parallel tabs.

Right-select any existing toolbar and select> Customizeand a> Customize Toolbarwindow will pop up.

Google Calendar Tab(experimental)

In Thunderbird 3, you might still useLightningandProvider for Google Calendar.

Sadly, there is no toolbar button provided, just an option within the> Toolsmenu.

Within the add-ons options menu you could switch from> Google Calendarto> Google Apps for your domain.

If you really want to browse with Thunderbird, you have to get this extension.

Besides, it’s no longer experimental and has been receiving great reviews.

First of all, it comes with a ton of options.

To access all these options, go to> Tools > Add-ons > Extensions > ThunderBrowseand click> Options.

Let me give you a quick overview of some of the main features.

you might quickly open a new ThunderBrowse tab using the icon at the top right of your tabs.

It may look cluttered at first, but it’s incredibly useful.
