Documentation

Support

(If you support Thunderbird or write or translate documentation to help support Thunderbird, please subscribe to the tb-support-crew mailing list and briefly introduce yourself to the list)

  1. 1146 new support topics (1346 1 week ago) - Media:17-23October2011-Community_stats_for_Mozilla_Messaging.png - I believe the numbers are down due to putting in a locale specific landing page for "ask a question" rather than redirecting to Get Satisfaction for German, French, Japanese, and other locales. If you have a localized version of /ask that you want in place please contact rtanglao AT mozilla.com
  2. Thunderbird 7 Support Issues
  3. Thunderbird 8 Support Issues - Please edit and add any issues found in TB8 starting with TB8 Beta 1
  4. See this week's Support Appendix for full Get Satisfaction metrics and other support details
