We are going to use thunderbird as email client in our comapny. I have
got msi file for the software deployment. but i would like to know is
there any way to automate client configuration ( such as logon script)
based upon the windows login.

Thanks,

I take it that it does not work. What happens when you try to run the
script?

What makes you think that there are changes you should make, and how are we
supposed to know what changes might be required for it to work in your
organisation? Like, what is there about your organisation that might be
different from the organization in which the script actually worked?
