New mozilla-thunderbird packages are available for Slackware 13.1, and -current to fix security issues

Summary

Here are the details from the Slackware 13.1 ChangeLog: patches/packages/mozilla-thunderbird-3.0.7-i686-1.txz: Upgraded. This upgrade fixes some more security bugs. For more information, see: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/known-vulnerabilities/thunderbird-3.1/ (* Security fix *)

Where Find New Packages

HINT: Getting slow download speeds from ftp.slackware.com? Give slackware.osuosl.org a try. This is another primary FTP site for Slackware that can be considerably faster than downloading directly from ftp.slackware.com.
Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab (https://osuosl.org/) for donating additional FTP and rsync hosting to the Slackware project! :-)
Also see the "Get Slack" section on http://www.slackware.com/ for additional mirror sites near you.
