Trackpoint scrolling not working in Thunderbird

I have Win7 Enterprise installed on my X41, with the proper driver installed for Ultranav.
The center button + trackpoint scrolling works on everything, except for Thunderbird. I have the latest version Thunderbird 3.0.3 installed. Scrolling works fine in Firefox, Chrome, Open Office, etc. I've tried installing the SmoothWheel extension in Thunderbird, which didn't change anything.

I had no trouble with scrolling in Thunderbird 2.0 while running XP.

Help! :help:

File a bug with the Thunderbird makers as that is where the problem is. ... JDH

figured it out
had to modify the tp4table.dat file in the following directory:
C:\Program Files\Lenovo\TrackPoint

the file already contains the settings for Firefox, but not for Thunderbird.
Added an entry for Thunderbird and after a reboot it was all good. :D
