Just wanted to let you know your link to ‘Sync on arrival’ actually points to MinimizeToTray.
Thanks Jon, I’ve just updated the link to the right URL.
Download statusbar won’t be needed in Firefox 3: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402278
Does MinimizeToTray work for thunderbird linux ? It seems it’s not available for this system 馃檨
@Benoit:
I’m not sure whether it works on Linux, as I don’t miss it much there due to the existence of workspaces. It’s mostly one more way to make Windows a bit more bearable for day to day use.
