[orca-list] Thunderbird: Seven weeks and only little progress!

[Hermann <steppenwolf2 onlinehome de>]

Hi all,
I'm going to test the latest Thunderbird; today there's a new version 
after 7 weeks.
Let me say that I'm more than disappointed:
No progress in stability: When I open a message to read it, TB crashes 
after I've closed it.
In the messages list I still cannot read the headline, I still se "Cell" 
as only information.
Sluggishnes in response: To scroll the folders tree can last a few 
minutes, especially after start up I've to wait literally minutes before 
reading anything.
The same happens when I try to route the flat review; it last about 5 
minutes till I get a response, and BTW, the routing patch implemented 
for FF doesn't work here.
When I compose a message, I Get the headlines spoken again and again 
when I type in text, and the text isn't shown on my braille display; 
only in the message body Orca acts correctly.
Caret browsing only works reliable when the Orca control is turned on.
Sumary: Still unusable.
Regards
Hermann
