1.5 release.  We've added lots of features and fixed lots of bugs since 
Mozilla 1.4.  Among the additions are a spell checker for Mail and 
Composer, and improvements to tabbed browsing, Chatzilla, and DOM 
Inspector.   See <http://www.mozilla.org/releases/#1.5> for more 
information.

Also released were the latest technology previews of the stand-alone Web 
browser, Mozilla Firebird, and the stand-alone e-mail client, Mozilla 
Thunderbird.

Mozilla Firebird 0.7 includes great new features like an advanced 
preferences panel, cookie whitelisting, Web panels (like Mozilla's 
sidebar panels), alternate stylesheet support, Send Page, Send Link, and 
Send Image menu items, and lots of bug fixes and other small 
improvements.  See 
<http://www.mozilla.org/projects/firebird/release-notes.html> for more 
information.

With the new Mozilla Thunderbird 0.3 release users can place a signature 
at the top of a message reply if the reply text is configured to be at 
the top of the message, POP accounts can be configured to remove read 
messages from the server after X days, and the application has received 
many additional performance, stability and UI polish improvements. See 
<http://www.mozilla.org/projects/thunderbird/release-notes.html> for 
more information.

All three of these new releases are available for download at 
<http://www.mozilla.org/> and are, for the first time, available for
