Are you using Ubuntu version 9.04? If so do this. Go to Applications -> Add/Remove. Choose "All Available Applications" in the drop down box and then type in Lightning for Mozilla Thunderbird. That should solve it...(I had to do it that way as well...) Hope it helps. Let me know if it does/doesn't. Cheers!

Thanks, it worked. But why when I could get it working via Synaptic?
