The Mozilla Suite is the result of many years of hard work. It was a complete redesign an practically written from scratch to be robust, standardscomplient and flexible. It has a Web browser (usually just called "'Mozilla"), an e-mail and newsgroup reader (Messenger), an HTML authoring tool (Composer), a contact manager (Address Book), and an IRC chat client (Chatzilla). The Mozilla application suite is the basis of Netscape 6 and 7. (Mozilla suite is sometimes called "Seamonkey", which is an old Netscape code name.)
Firefox is the Mozilla Foundation's next generation Web browser. The user interface was redesigned to be streamlined and performant, but the powerful and stable core from Mozilla suite was cept. This empowers you to accomplish your online activities faster, more safely, and more efficiently than any other browser, period. It is expected to become the Mozilla Foundation's flagship browser when it reaches 1.0. It will not replace the Mozilla Suite, but simply offer an alternative to it, without the additional applications bundled in.
Thunderbird is a new standalone e-mail application, based on the mail portion of the Mozilla Suite. Features include advanced e-mail tools like spam filtering, an addressbook, and spellchecking. The application also includes a newsgroup (NNTP) client. Thunderbird is designed to be a more flexible client, not bound to a single specific Web browser. It is expected to become the flagship e-mail client from the Mozilla Foundation when it reaches 1.0.
Camino is a web browser optimized for Mac OS X with a Cocoa user interface. It practices the art of simplicity with an uncluttered user interface but with the features you expect from a modern browser like tabbed browsing and pop-up blocking settings.
