Tame Your Email With Thunderbird
Customize Your Server Settings – Set Up Priorities
Once you have all your email addresses set up, you can go a step further in prioritizing how Thunderbird handles all your email accounts.
There are some emails that don’t need to be checked the moment you fire up Thunderbird, some that don’t need to be checked every 10 minutes, and some that don’t need to be checked until you say so.
Make sure to go through each individual account and set them up to do what you want them to — this will pay off in the long run (trust me).

I’ve heard a lot of people say that about the Cross Over theme, that it’s not compatible with the Calendar, but it works just dandy with mine (maybe he upgraded the plugin when I wasn’t looking
And you’re right…the plain text to HTML viewing on the fly is much better than OE.
