"Guess what? Thunderbird is almost as bad. The emails are saved in a proprietary compressed format that can't be easily exported to a real word processor."

I specifically checked. Thnderbird stores
messages uncompressed, as raw files.
Normal english ASCII messages can be read
by Word. It however stores messages with
headers and other information, so
it may be not so easy to read them, and places
all messages in folder in on big file.
But there was no effort to hide them.

It is not clear which features OSC wanted here.

You didn't deliver everything your thread title promised. Tell me something about firebird.
