The thunderbird developers have been asking about microformats, so  
they are definitely looking into it.  Previous discussions have been  
about hCard, but other formats could of course be sent in HTML emails  
as well.  Mozilla is adding microformat detection to our rendering  
engine, so any Gecko-based Web browser will be able to leverage our  
microformat parsing (Camino, Flock, etc.)
