Daily is also referred to as "Nightly" or "Trunk", which is where Thunderbird is developed. You can also download a [http://archive.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/nightly/latest-comm-central-l10n/ localized build] of Daily (or any other version) so you can test if everything works and displays as designed in your language , Trunk/Daily also has the greatest risk of problems, so if you don't want to use Daily then please use [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/channel/ Beta]. (Worst case, use [http://www.getthunderbird.com/ the last released version].) | ||
