There are a bunch of MAPI32.DLL bugs in bugzilla, most of them have been duplicated to: Bug 109362 - Installing/setting Mozilla as default mail breaks other clients (e.g. groupwise, outlook) (bad mapi32.dll) <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109362> This is nominated for "wanted‑thunderbird3" I think this should be blocking-thunderbird3 since the problem will be even worse with Vista and Windows7.
