[nflug] Thunderbird under kubuntu feisty

[Cyber Source]

If you want to use the new version, you need to rename your existing 
.mozilla-thunderbird folder to .thunderbird in ~, otherwise it will 
create one named the latter if it doesn't see one already, if it does 
see it named as such, it will read all in there just fine.
