Installing Thunderbird on Opensuse.


I want to install Thunderbird email client on my system, Opensuse 10.2 using the information in this link http://www.thejemreport.com/mambo/content/view/178/
However, it states that the instructions only apply to Opensuse 10.00. Does this mean that it will not work on later builds such as 10.02?
Don't want to go ahead if there is a possibility of problems.
Thanks in advance.

Installing from Yast Software Management is valid for any version. The MozillaThunderbird package is provided by the official distribution, so you have not to add any additional repository.

He did that for every suse distribution since 9.something I think:

Always a month or so after the stable release. I used to google for "jem-report suse xx.x" Every time a new version came out.

Thanks for your help. All done and dusted. Didn't realise it would be that easy.
