I really don't remember (+quick check) Firebird for the email client, do you have source for this?

Predecessor of Firefox was Firebird, and before that it was even called Phoenix.

No, the email client was never called Firebird, that isn't what I was saying.

Browser: Phoenix -> Firebird -> Firefox Mail client: Minotaur -> Thunderbird

Firebird was the browser's name, after phoenix and before rebranding to firefox.
