Thanks for all the wonderful answers. Plug works as a community, even at  
holidays.

./configure doesn't work on thuderbird as Lance pointed out and I also  
came across the sites mozilla.org.  To configure thunderbird you use the  
.mozconfig file.
Then you build make file.
After reading the details,  I think it's a bit complicated and I don't  
really understand the build literature.
Meanwhile, I'll search for a RH9 binary.

I downloaded from mozilla.com/en-US/thunderbird/ and the program was  
source code ;
  thunderbird-2.0.0.9.tar.gz.
I would have preferred a binary but therewas none on the mozilla site. I  
did a search and came across : t-bird-0.7.2..............ko.log.gz
but I didn't know what the endings mean and anyhow it's 0.7.
