If I drop Thunderbird on Script Editor nothing happens. Also the 'Open 
Dictionary' command from the Script Editor shows a list of applications,
in which I can select Thunderbird, but after selection nothing happens.
Is this normal behaviour or am I still missing something?

Maybe I better start learning AppleScript although it doesn't appeal 
very much to me (yet), since I've programming too long C/C++/Java.

Actually I'm a bit disappointed that Apple couldn't provide some tools
(e.g. Automator) with which my specific problem could be solved.
