question - Thunderbird

[Stephen Partington]

Hrmm Up to date Ubuntu 14.04, and TB 24.4.0.

I am still using unity at this moment, and have made a few other minor
tweaks that made the whole thing happy. Taking a peek i have the same
method you do as an option, it was just not the first one i found. Do you
have an "Account Settings" on your edit menu?

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
