NUREMBERG, Germany, December 2, 2009 – Open-Xchange, the leading provider of business-class open source collaboration software, announced today the availability of a free connector for Mozilla Thunderbird, the cross-platform e-mail and news client developed by the Mozilla Foundation.
The "Community OXtender for Thunderbird“ software connector gives users full access to appointments and contacts stored in the Open-Xchange Server and enables them to use Thunderbird as a rich PIM (Personal Information Management) client to access data online and offline.
