"The Thunderbird email client doesn't get half the attention that its big brother, the Firefox browser, gets, but the Mozilla Foundation has finally gotten around to lavishing some love on it, and the first beta of version 2 is now out. If you think there's nothing more that can added to an email client - except for the fabled seek-out-and-destroy-spam option - prepare to be pleasantly surprised. The new Thunderbird comes with numerous new features."

LDAP write possibility

I want the possibility to create my contacts directly to a LDAP server. This feature is so overdue!

I saw somewhere that this was not going to happen, but I can't exactly tell you where I read it. When I find it, I'll post the link unless someone else can link to it.

I would be really interested in this too, if you can find the link. The Thunderbird address book with address auto-completion in the composition window is so well done, it's just a pity that it's not easier to use it for a shared contacts list.

This isn't the way LDAP directories typically work. They are meant to be read only from the end user's perspective.
