Thunderbird-Tray
Free Software to Minimize Thunderbird in the System Tray If you use Thunderbird as your email client, you may have noticed the annoying icon on your desktop. If you want to minimize the application to the system tray, you can use SysTray-X to do so. Once installed, Thunderbird will start minimized when you click on it, and automatically hide itself in the taskbar or tray when closed. However, if you don't want to have the Thunderbird-Tray icon, you can also disable it in the context menu or by using File-Exit. The Thunderbird-Tray is a small, lightweight program that will consume little memory when in use. Once installed, you can customize your Thunderbird-Tray to appear in the system tray. There are numerous settings available, including a separate font color for different email accounts. In addition, you can set up TBTray to start automatically with Windows. Despite the fact that TBTray does not function as a standalone email notification tool, it can be useful if you use Thunderbird on a daily basis. If you do, you can use the program as a useful way to check your inbox at any time. After installing Thunderbird-Tray on your PC, you should open the application. If it is already installed, you should see a notification on your system tray letting you know when new email has arrived. Alternatively, you can simply click on the notification to view your email without opening Thunderbird. This free application will minimize Thunderbird in the system tray and give you quick access to your email at anytime. If you don't want to install Thunderbird-Tray on your PC, you can easily get it through the Windows Store.
