For several years I have used Mozilla Thunderbird 2.0.0.24 as my email program. Recently, for several days, no new emails showed up in my inbox. When new emails started to re-appear, I noticed that Thunderbird 38.3.0 was my email program. 38.3.0 is extremely hard to use - - I hate it. How do I restore 2.0.0.24?

Version 2 is totally obsolete, and does contain some fairly large security bugs. So to avoid being like typoid Mary, I suggest you stay with Version 38. There are some major changes from Version 2 to be sure, but if you really dislike them most can be done away with.
