There's a huge difference between technical hurdles and legal hurdles.
While it may be impossible to craft a for form of DRM that's secure from a
technical standpoint, that doesn't negate the legal aspect of it. If DRM is
considered legitimate and becomes enshrined in law, no amount of technical

Perhaps not, but the tools available to a 14-year-old first-time burglar

An interesting note about Thunderbird:
Someone with a clue implemented a maildir storage backend for the local

My bash autocompletion recently stopped working. So trying to do things
like
cd ~/Ubuntu\ One/
by typing
cd ~/Ubu[tab]
would not work properly.
The escaped space would be stripped out; the directory would not be
recognized as such, so the trailing slash would be removed; and to make

Try going to "Tools -> Error console" and keep the console visible in a
corner of your desktop. Then see if it shows anything interesting
during/after a freeze. It might guide you to the underlying cause.

That's probably the auto save to your drafts folder. (I see that too
when I run TB on old hardware.)
Is your drafts folder local or remote? (If remote, that might be your

In my model I'm less concerned if an intruder exploits a zero-day
