Thunderbird:Help Documentation:Base

Important Stuff:

• Thunderbird Help content outline
• Help Style Guidelines

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.

Note: By changing things here, you agree to release your changes under the MPL, GPL, and LGPL licenses in addition to the license used by the Mozilla wiki (the GFDL). If you log in when you make (non-trivial) changes, you will be mentioned in a comment in each file when the docs are added to the Mozilla source code. Mention a name in your user page and it'll be used in the comment.

If you have further questions or wish to discuss anything, do so at the top of the appropriate page, preferably separated from the content by a horizontal rule (specified by ----). You can also email me if you want.

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.

• Help Documentation:Obsolete:Keyboard Shortcuts
