Thunderbird cons - I've never known any. Google groups cons - continual 
streams of messages on a daily basis that are double spaced despite 
umpteen requests to follow instructions so the crap doesn't get 
repeated.  Just how difficult is it?  Are you prepared to pay for my new 
glasses, as the eye strain caused by google crap really does get to me. 
  Goon squad indeed!!!
