This doesn't make sense. "thunderbird-locale" is a separate package, so your answer hasn't anything to do with the original question. About English being installed by default, I am not sure but aren't the strings in the original language already available in the binary files themselves (eg, isn't it those which you see when using LANG=C)? -- Siegfried-Angel Gevatter Pujals (RainCT) Ubuntu Developer.
