Portable Thunderbird for Mac OS X is based purely on the Mozilla Thunderbird email software but has been made portable for Apple's Mac OS X users. This free email client enables Mac users to bring their email, contacts, address book and personalized messages with them while on the go. The user can then run the stand alone email application from a USB device using any Apple with a Mac operating system, while leaving no traces behind on the host machine.
