Thunderbird is one of those OSS projects which exemplifies one of the frustrations found with many OSS projects; it's almost there but isn't quite there yet. Thunderbird's core, reading, managing and sending email is top notch. It's POP/IMAP support is rock solid, it supports multiple mail accounts in a sensible manner and it offers several different mail reading paradigms that fit different reading habits well.
However in the years

Compared to using outlook express, Mozilla Thunderbird is a dream, a dream come true. The easy interface, the good tools all anyone needs in an e-mail client...and more. This shows just what open source can do, with great management. Mozilla makes the best open source products.

Thunderbird is a big-cumbersome leviathan that will suck tons of memory just to make you read some ASCII mail and news...
It has few bugs relatively to RSS feeds management and subscription; and it is by far less tidily designed than its Firefox companion.
However, it has some good points, such as: concentrating mail/news/feeds in one program and simple management of multiple accounts.
