What do you use for your email? Your crappy service that your email provider gives you (excluding GMail)? Why not use an email client? No! Not Outlook! How about Thunderbird? Why, you ask. How many reasons do you need? 3? I’ll do 4, because I always like to go one step further! Lets go…

1. Customization

Just like Firefox, or any Mozilla product, Thunderbird has its fair share of add-ons, available at the Mozilla Plugin Site. So, you can add functionality, remove features, or just read your emails… with style!

2. Speed!

It’s pretty fast! Unlike Outlook, Thunderbird loads at about 3 seconds! How awesome? Plus, less plugins = faster load time.

3. Phishing Protection

Although it’s not right all the time, Thunderbird can identify a scam! Unlike Hotmail, it doesn’t say every email you get from an unknown sender is a scam!

4. Organize!

Thunderbird gives you tons of options on how to organize your emails? Auto-responders, email priority tagging, filtering, all you’ll ever need!

Not convinced, I’ll post more possibly

PS: Did I mention a built-in RSS reader?

I bet you’re using a Firefox theme right now. What I doubt is that you like the default Firefox look and I also doubt you’re using Personas For Firefox. Personas is a more lightweight and customizable solution to Firefox themes. You can customize the way Firefox looks without knowing all the codes! Plus it’s more elegant IMO. It’s extremely simple to use, all you have to do is click on the Personas symbol at the bottom-left corner and choose your skin! Although sometimes the Persona “un-loads” and you’re left with a horrible blank Persona, since the Persona’s are not on your computer; they’re on a web server.

Here’s what mine looks like:

As you can see, I have Firefox Personas installed. I'm using the Firefox Logo persona.
