wget ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/releases/12.0.1/source/thunderbird-12.0.1.source.tar.bz2
Install dependencies
sudo apt-get install libdbus-glib-1-dev gir1.2-notify-0.7 libnotify-dev yasm checkinstall libzip-dev zip

rm comm-release/ -rf
tar -xvf thunderbird-12.0.1.source.tar.bz2
cd comm-release/
./configure --disable-necko-wifi
The next step will take a little while (30-60 minutes on a slow computer)

And then install
sudo make install
