The same methods as above can be used, but in order to see the "about:" page you have to set it as your Mail Start Page.
==Alternate method (for any version of any Toolkit application)==
#Install the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/421/ MR-Tech Toolkit] extension. It can be installed in Firefox, Thunderbird, Sunbird, or in SeaMonkey 2.0pre and higher, but:
#* If possible, use a version of the extension compatible with your version of the application. If you are using an older version, you may need to click "View all versions" near the bottom of the page.
#* If you are using a new nightly not yet supported by the latest version of the extension, you may have to [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Extensions.checkCompatibility override the version compatibility check].
#Restart the application.
#You can now copy the Build ID to the clipboard by means of the new "Tools → Copy userAgent / Build ID → Copy Build ID only" menuitem.
* '''Advantage:''' This way you get the full build ID, sometimes with a better precision (up to the second in recent builds) than what appears at the bottom of the about: page.
* '''Disadvantage:''' (obviously) This requires a third-party extension.
