Howto install thunderbird-2.0.0.0.tar.gz in Linux

To install Thunderbird 2.0.0.0 from a .tar.gz tarball on a Linux system, you can use the following steps:

1. Download the tarball:

wget https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/2.0.0.0/thunderbird-2.0.0.0.tar.gz

This will download the tarball from the Mozilla FTP server.

2. Extract the tarball:

tar -xzvf thunderbird-2.0.0.0.tar.gz

This will extract the contents of the tarball into a directory with the same name as the tarball, without the .tar.gz extension.

3. Change to the extracted directory:

cd thunderbird-2.0.0.0

4. Run Thunderbird:

./thunderbird

This will start Thunderbird, and you can use it to set up your email account and start using it.
