RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Jan Horak 2010-06-18 10:56:25 UTC 
Thunderbird 3.1 is upcomming. It solves frequent bugs and its going to have longer support from Mozilla.
Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2010-06-18 11:27:13 UTC 
This feature request did not get resolved in time for Feature Freeze
for the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release and has now been
denied. It has been proposed for the next Red Hat Enterprise Linux
release. If you would still like it considered for the current
release as an exception, please make that request with your support
representative.

===============================================================
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Thunderbird3.1

  Thunderbird 3.1

As the first concrete-step towards agility, 3.1 will be a short-cycle release (~4 months) based on 1.9.2. The intents of this release are primarily:

    * Update to a version of Gecko further from end-of-life than 1.9.1
    * Provide a softer landing pad for Thunderbird 2 users so that we can do a prompted major update for them 

Secondarily, we're also somewhat interested in:

    * Land almost-finished work that got cut from 3.0
    * Opportunistically take high-value changes that leverage the platform work we've done in Tb3 

Note that the above specifically excludes taking large, disruptive changes during the 3.1 cycle.

Verified on thunderbird-3.1.2-2.el6.x86_64.
Comment 13 releng-rhel@redhat.com 2010-11-10 21:46:49 UTC 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve
the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed
with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the
solution does not work for you.
