Created attachment 30661 [details] thunderbird 0.6 ebuild here it is?
See Bug 49940 for an updated mozilla-thunderbird-bin-0.6 ebuild
Thanks, I'm working on it.
Brad put in an initial version of 0.6 to portage. My changes were more extensive (to converge with the mozilla and mozilla-firefox ebuilds) so I committed on top of his (taking his diffs into account, of course).
