Can I Transfer Thunderbird to Ubuntu on a Mac?
Just because you have a Mac computer doesn't mean that machine has to run on the Mac OS X operating system. The Ubuntu Linux operating system, for example, has the ability to install on both Windows and Mac machines. Thunderbird allows you to access and maintain your email accounts from your desktop. You can transfer it to the Ubuntu installation on your Mac at any time from one native program.
