Will Mozilla Thunderbird work on a W2K Terminal Server?
Has anyone tried this and how did it work?...


Best regards
 
I've installed it on Windows 2000 Terminal Server in app mode. I can't tell
you a lot about the in-use details, but the following may be helpful. This
was done with Mozilla Thunderbird 0.7.2, from the core setup file (about
6050 MB).

+ Use custom install so you can turn off the Quality Feedback Agent.

+ After install is done, you MAY find that you need to manually create a
shortcut to Thunderbird - the folder was created on the Start Menu, but
didn't contain a link.

+ Thunderbird does correctly create per-user filestores in the Documents and
Settings\<username>\Application Data folder, so you should automatically get
separate configs.

+ Unlike some earlier versions of the Mozilla/Netscape 6 UI, this one shows
up OK in 256-color sessions. Earlier versions were a bit ugly. :)
