Thunderbird/Thunderbird3.1SupportIssues

	THIS PAGE IS A WORKING DRAFT
	The page may be difficult to navigate, and some information on its subject might be incomplete and/or evolving rapidly. If you have any questions or ideas, please add them as a new topic on the discussion page.

Support doesn't speak for the development team, it just tries to represent users :-) so no promises but Roland will pursue the major problems from a user point of view

Please click "Discussion" and add your feedback and any major or minor problems you see in Thunderbird 3.1 and I'll merge the discussion onto this page
