We've just pushed the Thunderbird 1.0.2 update to FTP (it may take an hour or more to hit all the mirrors, though.) This update is the first security release for the wildly successful Thunderbird 1.0 - which has already seen about 5 million downloads.
The Thunderbird 1.0.2 release resolves several important security issues since 1.0 and all Thunderbird users are encouraged to ugrade. You can find more about the security issues over at the Known Vulnerabilities page.
Thunderbird 1.0.2 can be downloaded at:
In case you're wondering whether or not you missed a release, the answer is no. We shipped Thunderbird 1.0 in early December and had planned our first security update to coincide with the Firefox 1.0.1 security update. Before we could get Thunderbird 1.0.1 finalized, a new issue surfaced that required we ship another round of releases (Firefox, Thunderbird, and 1.7.x) so we shelved the Thunderbird 1.0.1 release and started to tackle the issue we needed fixed for a 1.0.2.

Posted by: Asa Dotzler on March 21, 2005 10:44 PMwhen can localized 1.0.2 builds be expected? I'm particularly interested in de-DE...
Posted by: pz on March 22, 2005 01:27 AMAny increased functionality/UI tweaks in 1.0.2. I tried to port over to Thunderbird when it first came out, but it's hard to pull off in a Outlook standard office. IT nearly lynched me, and when I got it all up and running its only real advantage seemed to be it wasn't MS (which is more than reason enough for me at home.)
Just curious if there were any noticable changes to its actual interface. I'm sure there is a link to all this but haven't been able to find it.
Thanks.

Posted by: Asa Dotzler on March 22, 2005 10:32 AMThis is only a security/stability release according to the release notes. Version 1.1 when it is released should have a lot more goodies :)

Will it be available later?
Thanks,

I'm awaiting a zip build as well to build Portable Thunderbird.
