The outline provided us with a starting list of topics to cover.  What follows below is a (still partial) list of the topics that will be presented in documentation.  Consolidation and rearrangement will probably happen until we get a good, stable base for help docs.
If you wish to comment on a topic and it's more a general question than anything else, just comment on that page's Discussion page.  For other details about how to contribute, see [[Thunderbird:Help Documentation:Documentation Guidelines|Documentation Guidelines]] (covers style issues, documentation license, etc.).

General Help Topics

Platform-Specific Topics

Potential Source Material

  • Other sites allowing material for use:

Obsolete, Crufty (Yet Possibly Reusable) Docs

These documents were made before we started outlining what's needed in Thunderbird Help, so they don't quite fit the scheme. Additionally, they're very old and probably contain invalid information. We shouldn't just copy this stuff over, because it's going to be wrong in many places, but it might still have some useful contributions.
