I can keep things organized a bit more now. No more keeping a message marked as new to indicate I need to act on it. I can now tag things one way or another. I&#8217;m also pretty happy with the new search\/filtering tools. They&#8217;re kind of along the same lines as the tagging, but I can now create a search folder that automatically fills with messages based on whatever search criteria I give it. All in all a big step in the right direction for this release.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mozilla.com\/en-US\/thunderbird\/\">Download Thunderbird 2.0\u00c2\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mozilla Foundation has an early birthday present for me, Thunderbird 2.0!
