You have always been able to use your own domain email with Thunderbird. The big news here is the fact that they are launching not only a web based mail service a la Thunderbird but also providing an email server for addresses of [yourchosenname]@thundermail.com. which is gonna be pretty great.

    I've been using Thunderbird for email for years. I use it with some SMTP servers on shared hosting platforms, a yahoo account and a few gmail accounts - one with calendars. I don't have any problems with it. Runs stable, doesn't crash or do weird things. My only complaint would be search is a little clunky, but it works.

    I had to use Outlook client for year at another job and that client was hot garbage.

    Whats wrong with the thunderbird client.

    Even when I was on windows back on XP I used it. Never had a problem with it or its functionality, personally.
