Tame Your Email With Thunderbird
The Elusive and Confusing Signature Attachment
It’s no secret that Thunderbird has a less than desirable signature file system, but until a better one is implemented, the idea is to make due with what you have.
I would recommend setting up a folder in your Thunderbird profile directory called ‘thunderbird-sigs’ and create a new text document for each email account.
This makes attaching, updating, and keeping track of all your signature files a snap.

Fantastic Teli
Personally I love thunderbird, and had only recently found the crossover theme, the only problem I had was that it didn’t work with the calendar extension, and so ended up downloading Sunbird instead, but otherwise it’s fantastic, especially for sorting your mail and it’s junk filter, definitely better than OE. There’s one thing you forgot to mention, on the fly plain text to HTML viewing through the view menu, it’s so much more flexible than OE’s rigid one or the other approach, I would give it 10/10

Thanks Phill,
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 :D)
And you’re right…the plain text to HTML viewing on the fly is much better than OE.
