This seems to have been fixed now. There was already a bug in bugzilla
re: this when I looked earlier.

I've got the thunderbird package working great now, but the mail/news
package is giving me trouble now. It appears that the tray-biff
preferences overlay (is that the correct term?) isn't showing up. I can
see the XUL is there in the jar file, and the icon is appearing in the
tray as expected, just no preferences dialog. I did try installing
direct from the .xpi to see if it was something I was causing, and I
still didn't see the preferences. Any ideas? (This is with mail/news
versions 1.7.12)

Thanks,
Alan
