shortcuts different in windows and linux

Thank you for your bug report. This bug has been reported to the developers of the software. You can track it and make comments here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=476160

Marking as Wishlist since the problem exists only in comparison to another OS, and it may even be desired to change the Windows shortcut and not this one.

Moving to thunderbird package as this is still a valid request for TB2+.

The shortcuts are now in sync (CTRL + SHIFT + F) in the latest Thunderbird 3 beta. Please report any other bugs you may find. You can test the latest Thunderbird 3 beta here:
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ppa

A word of caution, that this is still beta software and you might encounter bugs.

I made an error, this should remain Triaged as it has not been released in Ubuntu yet.

This bug was fixed in the package thunderbird - 3.0+nobinonly-0ubuntu1
