build3 of the release candidates is available, and build2 is now
OBSOLETE (announced via thunderbird-testers 2 days ago). If you have
not yet started testing, or if you are already using a localized build,
you will want to use the new build3, whose link is on the test results
wiki page. build3 respin picks up an important intl patch affecting
compose which is noted in the release notes. It also enables Vista
Integrated Search in the 64 bit version.

Note also litmus now requires a 10 or 14 digit buildid of the form
YYYYMMDDHH or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS. Two ways to get buildid:
1. copy it to clipboard using NTT after installing nightly tester tools
extension https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/6543
2. application.ini file in your program directory (mine, for windows,
has "20081006095651")

Please view the release notes before testing. Details at
https://wiki.mozilla.org/QA/Thunderbird3/TestInstructions/Alpha3
and https://wiki.mozilla.org/QA/Thunderbird3/TestResults/Alpha3

Because of the respin we will be adding some time to the testing period
- how much is yet to be determined. But we would still like to complete
the bulk of our testing by Wednesday night 10/8 23:59 PDT. So please
start your testing ASAP. Information about testing goes out to
subscribers of https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/thunderbird-testers

We need everyone's help, even if it's just 20 or 30 minutes. Thanks
again for helping improve the quality of Thunderbird. Community support,
and giving back to the product and the community is greatly appreciated!
