Thunderbird 2.0.0.21 was recently released by the Mozilla Release Engineering team. The difference this time, well, all content, including the /start/ page is now hosted on mozillamessaging.com. Makes quite a large difference in our bandwitdh consumption, don't you think ?
The only problems I've been dealing with because of this is simply the amount of logs generated by this increase in traffic. Everything is fine now, but for a little while there, the rapid growth in traffic caught me a little off-guard. I was expecting more traffic, yes, but not quite that much more. It's actually a good thing, really, because except for a little disk space annoyance, the infrastructure behind mozillamessaging.com has handled a 20x increase in traffic without breaking a sweat. Good!
