right click on the start button - choose menu editor
navigate to the section Internet - Email and add it there
the command is just as you typed before - thunderbird
you should be able to fetch the icon by clicking on the icon button and
search thru
thunderbird is showing on menu editor under a email subfolder that is
not showing on the menu, but I moved it under Internet and save it yet
is not showing to make matters worst none of the application under the
start up menu is respondeing… any ideas?
The installed application (not Thunderbird in this case) appears in the
menu editor in the sub menus, but I can’t get that sub menu to appear in
the menu proper. There doesn’t appear to be a box saying “display this
item”, and expanding the tree in Menu Editor and saving the changes has
no effect, so I don’t know what else to try…
I noticed that the sub-menu does not show when it only contains one
item. Therefore it puts the item up a menu level. E.g. I have only one
email program so it doesn’t show the email sub-menu, it just puts it in
the internet menu even though in the editor it is in the email sub-menu.
Is that happening for you?
Tell us, are you guys using kde3 or kde4. Not that it should matter,
because I have no issues with the menu in either. Though once or twice I
have had to edit it in kde4 for items that appear in kde3 but not in 4.
In my case I’m using kde4 and it took for me to reboot the system for
the changes to take effect maybe reseting the X server would have done
it… what are the combo keys for reseting the X server?, I’ve tried
crtl+alt+backspace and is a no go!

Try holding the Ctrl+Alt and hitting the backspace twice.

It didn’t appear in the menu above when on its own. I’ve added a filler
item to the sub menu, saved changes, and sure enough, they both show up
now. Quite strange… Smells of bug to me
Didn’t need to restart X either btw.
Oh, and I’m using KDE 4.1.3
