Mozilla 1.0

[Aaron Grewell]

The name came about with the introduction of the Communicator series,
IIRC.  That was when they started including Collabra (a newsreader that
had been a separate product).  They used the Messenger name to
differentiate Mail from the Collabra Newsreader.  Of course, all that
code got chucked, so the name is really anachronistic.
