Mozilla Lightning 1.0 beta Released

-->

Lightning makes Thunderbird soar above Outlook for home use, and places it on nearly equal ground in the office. It includes an overhauled interface with easy-to-use buttons for jumping between email and your calendar, LDAP directory support for event invites, and Sun Java Calendar Server support.

Work on the plug-in is now handled by Mozilla as they prepare to integrate its code into Thunderbird for the big version 3 update coming later this year, but that doesn’t mean the plug-in isn’t ready for prime-time now. A menu bar for switching between mail and calendar views can live either above or below the folder tree on the left. On the right side of the main pane is a new panel for quickly viewing and managing events and tasks. Option-heavy, it can show only events, only tasks, both, or hide the pane completely, as well as make changes to and create new events and tasks.

Events are searchable at the calendar top. Just below it is a hideable pane showing upcoming events in a spreadsheet format. There are built-in presets for the next seven, 14, and 31 days, and they can be arranged by start date, end date, title, location, and calendar. Lightning supports multiple calendars, including iCal, and has bidirectional support for Google Calendar with the Provider for Google Calendar plug-in.

There is also support for Exchange servers, although for enterprise use fans of Thunderbird/Lightning will likely have to talk to their tech support teams to get the servers configured properly. That, of course, is the biggest drawback compared to Outlook. Old bugs relating to timezone management and invitation responses have been eliminated, though, making this add-on an absolute requirement for all users, both at home and in the office.

Lightning is an extension for Mozilla Thunderbird and Mozilla SeaMonkey that adds an integrated calendar. It is based on the standalone Mozilla Sunbird calendar application, and includes interoperability with Microsoft Exchange servers, Google Calendar, and other calendaring apps.

What’s new in this version:

    Lightning 1.0 beta 1 is the latest release of our calendar extension for Mozilla Thunderbird. We recommend that all users upgrade to this latest version.

    The following features have been added to Lightning 1.0 beta1:

  • Seamless integration into the new Thunderbird 3.0 user interface
  • The different modes (calendar view, task view) are now diplayed in tabs
  • Lightning now supports SeaMonkey 2.0 as a host application
  • You can now define multiple alarms

Enigmail 1.0 Released

-->

Enigmail Version 1.0

An extension for Thunderbird and SeaMonkey, Enigmail is a must-use for anybody who’s concerned about sending e-mail that can be read by anybody, including your Internet Service Provider. It’s not intended to encrypt all of your mail, although you can certainly do that. Rather, it’s best used for ensuring that even remotely sensitive e-mails don’t get read by the wrong person.

It uses the OpenPGP standard to digitally sign your e-mail, and can be configured to accommodate multiple e-mail accounts. One hang up is that it’s impossible with the current version to permanently decrypt e-mails, which can prevent them from being found by the otherwise-powerful Thunderbird search tools. Enigmail is an invaluable resource for messages containing sensitive information. An installation guide, which is essential for all but the most advanced power users, is available at the Enigmail Web site.

Enigmail adds OpenPGP message encryption and authentication to your email client. It features automatic encryption, decryption and integrated key management functionality. Enigmail requires GnuPG (www.gnupg.org) for the cryptographic functions, which is not included in the installation.

CNET Editor’s Note: The Download Now link will prompt a local download of the Firefox extension. To install the extension directly, open the file using your Firefox browser.
