Thunderbird v1.5 was released today. I use Thunderbird for my day job and have been anxiously awaiting the next release. Here's a break down of some of the new features from the Mozilla website:

Here's what's new in Thunderbird 1.5:

• Automated update to streamline product upgrades. Notification of an update is more prominent, and updates to Thunderbird may now be half a megabyte or smaller. Updating extensions has also improved.
• Sort address autocomplete results by how often you send e-mail to each recipient.
• Spell check as you type.
• Saved Search Folders can now search across multiple accounts.
• Built in phishing detector to help protect users against email scams.
