I absolutely love Thunder Bird on my stationary computer in my den....the calendar is the best too. I have a table "Samsung Notebook" and I have downloaded TB on to it but it asks me for an app to use TB. I downloaded one but obviously it is not working properly and I am not that literate with my tablet or my computer so I need help. I want my tablet to look the same as my computer when I open it to get my email!

Thanks a million!

Sorry to break it to you, but Thunderbird doesn't run on Android.

Android tablets have a Gmail client built in, and another email client called "Email". You will probably have to make do with either or both of these.

I haven't yet found an Android mail app that works like Thunderbird. For instance, the ability to drag and drop a message from one account to another simply doesn't seem to be there.
