Minimize to system tray (Thunderbird)

Thunderbird cannot minimize itself to the system tray. However, users of Microsoft Windows can try using one of these solutions:

• MinimizeToTray: an extension for Thunderbird, Firefox, and Sunbird. There is also a Minimize To Tray Enhancer extension that adds more features to it.
• Thunderbird-Tray.
• One of the general minimize-to-tray utilities mentioned in this MozillaZine Forums thread or below.

If you use GNOME, KDE, XFCE, or Fluxbox you can use kdocker or AllTray.
