the default on NetBSD. Patch to use a v4 socket when talking to an ipv4
ldap server. Fixes my PR 33511.

What's New in Thunderbird 1.0.7 (from Release Notes)
Thunderbird 1.0.7 is a security and stability update that is
part of our ongoing program to provide a safe Internet experience
for our customers. We recommend that all users upgrade to this
latest version.
NetBSD the thread safe resolver is only available on __NetBSD_Version__
>= 299000900. Fixes runtime usage on NetBSD 2.1. New Versions:
- firefox-1.0.6nb2
- firefox-gtk1-1.0.6nb2
- mozilla-1.7.11nb1
- mozilla-gtk2-1.7.11nb1
- thunderbird-1.0.6nb1
- thunderbird-gtk1-1.0.6nb1
Here are some of the new features to look for in Thunderbird:
* Adaptive Junk Mail Controls
* RSS Integration
* Saved Search Folders
Saved Search Folders display messages based on previously set search
criteria. For example, instead of filtering messages into a new
folder, you can create a Saved Search Folder that lists all the
messages received from a certain person over the past 30 days, even if
those messages are stored in different folders and subfolders.
* Global Inbox Support
POP3 users can now combine all of their POP3 accounts into a single
global inbox under local folders.
* Message Grouping
You can now group messages in a folder by attributes such as date,
sender, priority or a custom label. For instance, a folder grouped by
date will group messages from today, yesterday, last week, etc. into
self-contained groups in the message list pane. (View > Sort By >
Grouped By Sort)
* Privacy Protection
In order to help protect your privacy, Thunderbird now automatically
blocks remote image requests in emails from senders you don't know.
* Comprehensive Mail Migration from other Mail Clients
Switching to Thunderbird has never been easier since Thunderbird can
now migrate all of your email data including settings, mail folders
and address book data from common mail applications such as the
Mozilla 1.x Suite, Outlook Express, Outlook and Eudora.

---
Several security holes have been fixed. See the page bellow for
detail.
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known-vulnerabilities.html#mozilla1.7.3
From the article from mozillazine.org:
mozilla.org today released upgrades to both Firefox 0.9 (0.9.1) and
Thunderbird 0.7 (0.7.1) to fix some minor bugs present in both
releases. Both releases correct some flaws in the extension system
that some users may have been experiencing, as well as a new icon set
for the navigation toolbar on Windows and Linux in Firefox 0.9.1. All
users of both products should get this upgrade.
Here are the highlights for this release of Thunderbird:
* Smaller and Faster
The Windows Installer is now only a 5.9MB download. Significant
performance improvements on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X!
* New Themes and Extension Manager
Provides a convenient and secure way to manage and update the many
add-ons that set Thunderbird apart from other e-mail clients.
* Crash Analysis Tools (Talkback)
Help us help you! Integration with Mozilla Talkback allows users to
submit crash reports which makes it easier for us to find Thunderbird
top crashes.
* Other New Features...
New user interface for viewing vCards.
New Profile Manager which also supports running from a USB device.
Color quoting for quoted message parts.
Thunderbird now supports a user interface for creating multiple
identities per e-mail account. This makes it easy to have several
e-mail addresses which end up going into the same account.
* Recently Fixed Bugs
Fix for an occassional hang when reading IMAP mail over SSL.
Our LDAP support works against older version 2 LDAP servers again in
addition to version 3.
Thunderbird can handle mailto urls that contain raw spaces in the
subject.
Other bug fixes too numerous to mention!
What's new from release notes:
* Improved Junk Mail Controls
The algorithm for the adaptive junk mail controls has been heavily
redesigned to learn faster and catch more spam.
* New Brand Identity
To be consistent with the Mozilla Foundation's goal of brand identity,
Thunderbird has a new logo and supporting artwork thanks to the fine
work of the Mozilla Visual Identity team.
* Other New Features...
- IMAP users can now benefit from support for the IMAP IDLE command
which allows the mail server to push notifications such as new mail
arriving as soon as it arrives.
- Thunderbird supports server-wide news filters that apply to all
newsgroups on a server.
- Thunderbird includes Secure Password Authentication using a new
cross-platform NTLM authentication mechanism for IMAP, POP3 and SMTP.
- Mail filters can now mark messages as junk.
- Tools > Options > Compose > HTML Options allows you to set up
default HTML compose options such as font, size and color.
- Attachments can be opened directly from the compose window to verify
their contents before sending.
- Thunderbird now supports the notion of multiple identities per mail
account. This makes it easy to have several e-mail addresses which end
up going into the same account. Read More about how to set this up.
* Recently Fixed Bugs
- In the case of a failure when copying a message to an online Sent
folder, Thunderbird will now ask if you would like it to try again.
- Pasting data from an OpenOffice.org spreadsheet no longer pastes
random HTML garbage before the actual spreadsheet data into HTML
compose.
- Fixed several situations where LDAP connections were left open when
using LDAP auto complete or performing searches on LDAP directories.
- Improved view source behavior.
- Mail notification for POP3 messages that are marked deleted or
marked read by mail filters no longer occurs.
- The "Mark All Read" keyboard shortcut now works for Linux GTK2.
Mozilla Thunderbird is a redesign of the Mozilla mail component. The
goal is to produce a cross platform stand alone mail application using
the XUL user interface language.
