Support
- Top 5 GS Thunderbird 2 Support Topics (code in progress: http://gist.github.com/190923 ) basically the same as last week, no Anti-Virus this week. Confirmed with ss that the anti-virus false alarms are simply mistakes by the Vendors i.e. AVG and Trend Micro and not a problem with the Thunderbird 2 process (i.e. vendors were notified for 2.0.0.23 properly)
- Cannot receive email
 - Cannot send email
 - Windows 7 - it works well for some not so well for others
 - address book (how to use, how to export contacts)
 - email lost (fixed by compacting folders and deleting .msf)
 
 - Thunderbird 3 Beta Top Support Issues (not many reported, starting to monitor to see what we can improve for post 3.0)
- Thunderbird 3 Beta 4 restarts after closing
 - Windows 7
 
 - SUMO for MoMo tracker ticket: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=520628, gozer spinning up staging instance for this morning (Tues), looks like we can get inexpensive MoMo-ized port of Fennec theme from Gary Cunningham-Lee
 - Key Support stats from the following graphic:
- approximately 20 / day (143/7, basically same as l last week if we subtract the Raindrop topics)

 - happiness metric: API doesn't have happiness emotitags, asked GS staff about that, code in progress: http://gist.github.com/190094, manual happiness metric = 109 - 59 = 50 (7 last week), 41 Hendrix messages (generally Hendrix messages are unhappy but this week we had 4 happy messages about Gloda! Thanks!) - bug to track down Hendrix for Thunderbird 3 and get rid of it as much as possible
