Thunderbird 3

  • created new TB doc page (based on DavidA's draft): An overview of the Thunderbird interface. In progress: still need to gather IDLs relevant to each section, get volunteer help in writing snippets that illustrate the examples, edit, screenshots, etc. I'll ask for reviews and contributions later this week.
