.net framework (atleast 1.1 for sure) don't send directly to smtp port TCP/25. Instead, it uses CDO object, which is some COM system beast. And this thing has to be inicialized. You have to do it just once. You could uninstall OE then. I dont know, whether Thunderbird uses/inits CDO.
Perhaps there is some way how to accomplish this initialization by hand, without OE magic. Try to search for "System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail". That is what nant is using. btw: Confusing?
