Extensions that are easier to install than I can possibly describe (Extensions are additional features that people write that you can pick and choose whether to have)
That's just the absolute basics from the top of my head, and I'm just a layman, not a Firefox/Thunderbird expert.
Do what Richard suggests and install it. It doesn't take over your PC, it doesn't have to be the default browser. If the worst happens and you don't like it, you can uninstall it and it won't leave a trace of its existence.
NB I take a lot of convincing over 'alternative browsers', because Internet Explorer 'does the job' pretty much, but Firefox is so much better, and is SIMPLER to use than IE is. That was always the issue...alternative browsers were always too complicated and so never caught on. This is different, I promise!
