I agree, an integration add-on for Thunderbird (and any other e-mail

can't think of any other functionalities one would require of an outlook
clone).

But why only for Thunderbird?

Why not make an open container (or just modularize the existing one 
with a well defined interface) to will allow any application to use
the resources (e.g. dictionaries) and have full integration with all
LO resources?

I think that's what Lee meant by '(and any other e-mail clients or
contact managers with an add-on architecture)'...

I agree, choice is best, but there is also no reasonably mature
cross-platform alternative to Thunderbird+Lightning, so making it the
first fully supported mail client would be a great way to kick off a new
'Mail/Contacts Connector' plugin for LibO...
