This build of Mozilla ThunderBird 0.6 was produced on a sparc-sun-solaris2.8
platform. If you encounter any problem with the package, 
you may contact Roland Mainz <roland.mainz@nrubsig.org>

This build was made from the source obtained from the THUNDERBIRD_0_6_RELEASE
CVS branch.

Installation notes:
  * A full list of installation requirements can be found in the 1.7rc1
    release notes

    hhttp://www.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.7rc1/installation-ports.html#ports_solaris)
    installed _before_ starting Mozilla.

    languages and scripts like Thai/Tamil/etc. correctly
    See http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199857 for further

    At least Java 1.4.x is required.

  * Printing is supported via Xprint
    (see http://www.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.4rc3/index.html#xprint)
    xprint.mozdev.org provides various Solaris packages including "GISWxprint"
    and "GISWxprintglue", for people without (root) permission to install packages
    the plain tarballs are provided, an alternative prodecure is described in
    Sun InfoDoc #ID71966 about the same issue (see
    http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/retrieve.pl?doc=finfodoc%2F71966 - "How to add
