Hi bharath,
sorry to say but there is an error message coming up.
i use the GERMAN Thunderbird build 2007060411 and have downloaded the .xpi tb plugin from your site.
Going to Extras > Addons > Install and choosing that xpi causes the error "Sorry, no valid installation package -207" (my translation, could be different in the real english version)

i have tried different setups, ALWAYS get this message

Best Regards

Pimok,
this could be happen for instance if your download of the thunderbird extension failed. I experienced it many times when using the firefox browser. (download seemed to be ok but it was not) I would suggest you try to download this extention with the IE browser. vtiger should offer a download as ZIP file to avoid these issues.

ahaaaaa,
now i have downloaded the xpi from sourceforge
http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/vtigercrm/vtigercrm-tbird-plugin-5.0.3.xpi

and that one works.

Donīt ask me what went wrong here, but it works now, that counts. thanks for your reply anyway.

Balduin,
you are damn right,
now i have treid to get the firefox plugin and even though the download should start from KENT no download started, choosing a different mirror (Switch) still wants to get it from the KENT University.
Forcing a restart of firefox then says the download from switch is okay, but the above described error message comes up (same as with the tbird plug)

So i think it is really necessary that this information about download problems should be included on the downloads page

http://www.vtiger.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&Itemid=57

using ie just because of this is really a pain, so the zip alternative i like much better. as you have very good connection to the vtiger team, maybe you could inform them about this?

Greetings from Cologne

downloading the firefox toolbar (should be 115 kb) ends up without any errormessage but only 25 kb size.

Same with the webforms , should be 115 kb ends up with only 25 kb , even using different mirrors.

Using IE gets it with 152 kb and installation is no problem. So thanks balduin for this information, hopefully everyone gets to know this.
