One of the features I miss the most, when using Thunderbird/Sunbird, is the ability to synchronize my calendar and contacts to my Ipaq running pocket PC 2003. Are you going to develop a Pocket PC port of Lightning (Thunderbird/Sunbird)?

I don't really see Thunderbird as a replacement for Outlook, but rather for Outlook Express - so all I need to be able to sync is the in/out boxes and the contacts database.  Adam

It looks like every time Thunderbird is reinstalled, all the settings under Tools->Options... are lost. They should be saved in the user profile, together with the mail account settings and mail messages.

==Combine and Decode==
There is a feature in outlook express I simply cannot live without.  It allows you to combine several usenet postings into one "virtual post" and then decode any binaries that may be contained within.  Often posters who post binary files will break up the binary file accords several posts got get past may possible post size restrictions.  Please add this feature so I may finally put Outlook Express to rest; pernamently.
