What is the number of the most current version of Thunderbird?
When I look in "About Mozilla Thunderbird" it says I have version 2.0.0.24. On the Mozilla website, I can't find what the current version number is. How do I know if my version is current?
The real problem: Thunderbird is running really slow on my 6 (maybe 7) year old MacBook Pro, which I just updated to Sierra version 10.12.6. Maybe all my applications are running slow and I haven't noticed anything else yet..... is it my computer or Thunderbird?

I'd say both.

If you try to download Thunderbird from the official webpage, it returns 52.2.1 as the latest version.
I got a new iMac that came with El Capitan last year and I upgraded to Sierra, too, but I had to downgrade, because it ran extremely slow after the upgrade.
I'd suggest a fresh reinstall of Sierra, or a downgrade, if you can do it.
Also, RAM can be a factor. How much RAM do you have?

mattcamp,
Do you have a large message store, or high daily messages traffic?

Please quantify in rough numbers - # messages in the inbox - # messages in profile, total - # messages of incoming traffic that causes perf issue - how much memory is Thunderbird using
Are any of these incoming message large, such as server logfiles?
It's kinda hard to quantify such information, I don't keep such stats. I only experienced both systems, and Sierra wasn't working for me. Not saying this is generally valid.
So you're just a joe user, not an admin might get things like server logs?
You can surely check the size of your Inbox - click it, it's in the status bar
Ball park/guess/whatever the rest.
