“Mozilla Messaging has released a new version of the desktop
email client Thunderbird. Thunderbird 3.1.8. is a security,
stability and performance upgrade for the stable version of the
email software. Not all pages have been updated yet to reflect the
new release.“Bugzilla lists a total of 56 bug fixes of which 13 have a
severity rating of critical. Among the critical fixes are memory
leaks, crashes and security issues.“The download link at the official release notes page links
already to the newest version of the browser. Existing Thunderbird
3.1.x users should receive update notifications in the email client
shortly. Those who do not want to wait can download the new version
and install it manually instead.”
