Thunderbird in different languages

Hi all.
I have a limited resources desktop at home (256mb, k6-2 machine) so I've implemented a Breezy desktop at home. I couldn't get dapper to boot and breezy went just fine. I really love it. I've actually installed a server ver 1f40 sion and then installed xubuntu-desktop on it.
But I have an issue: my wife needs to use the desktop in spanish as much as possible and I prefer it in English.
For mail, I would like to give a try to thunderbird (is working quite well so far, not fast but neither slow), but I have the issue that I would need it in two different languages. With sylpheed, this is not a problem, after downloading the language-support packages from synaptic, you just select the language on the login manager (gdm) and I have the software in English or Spanish.
But I cannot find a language-pack for thunderbird. I've been to their site, and it was reported that mozilla did not launched extensions for additional languages, but installers instead.
So I Would like to know
1) if there are really no mozilla-thunderbird-locale-es for 1.5.0.7 or an equivalent xpi extension for choosing among users, which language they want to use.
2) how can I install two versions of thunderbird within the same system, one for each language.
3) if it makes any sense to install a previous version of thunderbid that indeed has a language packs available. And how to do this if it makes any sense.
4) if there is a language-aware e-mail client that would allow me to manage html-mail and is lightweight so as to use it in this machine.

Tks for now, Willie.
