Hello Nic. Thanks for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Thunderbird.
You made this bug report in 2009 regarding Thunderbird and there have been several versions of Thunderbird since then. Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket? Or, if it is still a problem, could you come to Launchpad and make a comment to that effect? Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Thunderbird better.
