Thunderbird config date non-compat.-

I've replaced F-10 on this computer with F-11 using the Omega live cd 
and so far everything seems perfect for the stuff that I use. One of the 
easiest Linux installs yet! And a lot of bandwidth was saved in doing 
the updates! That's an important factor with the limited bandwidth usage 
allocated by my ISP.

The version of Thunderbird provided however is not compatible with the 
"config date" add-on which I want in order to display 24 hour local 
times for both the sender and myself. The patch is not available for 
this version. What to do? It appears that I need to replace with version 
2.-something. Is there something I am missing here, am I unique in 
needing 24 hour time displayed?

        [bobg at box9 ~]$ yum whatprovides */thunderbird
        thunderbird-3.0-2.6.b3.fc11.i586 : Mozilla Thunderbird
        mail/newsgroup client
        Repo        : installed
        Matched from:
        Filename    : /usr/lib/thunderbird-3.0b3/thunderbird
        Filename    : /usr/bin/thunderbird



        [bobg at box9 ~]$ yum whatprovides */thunderbird-2.*
        Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit
        No Matches found

Any suggestions?

Bob

This should be in "plain text" if I have the configuration set right.
