Firefox and Thunderbird are two different things. Firefox is a web 
browser, Thunderbird is a mail client, both courtesy of mozilla.org. I 
did download Thunderbird from 
<http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/releases/#install>.

I don't know if you read my adventures on the newbie mailing list, but 
I had a heck of a time getting it to work myself. I basically went 
around the earth, only to go back to where I was and just "re-yum" it 
from scratch.
