Time to update Mozilla Thunderbird too

In case you missed this:

Heap overflow when canceling newsgroup message
http://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/2008/mfsa2008-46.html

"Georgi Guninski reported a buffer overflow in the handling of cancelled newsgroup messages. The error was caused by 
too small a heap buffer being allocated to store message header information. This buffer could be overrun by an 
attacker using a specially crafted message which could crash the mail reader and potentially be used to run arbitrary 
code on the victim's computer."

Solution:
Update to Thunderbird version 2.0.0.17 at
