Homedir of the iser isn't really involved, Firefox/Thunderbird/SeaMonkey expect the system to have system-wide packages available in system directories, then each user has them by default (but can selectively disable some of them if they want, though they still show up in his list). System-available packages show up in the "Addons manager" in a slightly different way, e.g. they can't be upgraded or deleted, only disabled. -- Lapo Luchini - http://lapo.it/ “Gentlemen do not read each others mail.” (Henry Lewis Stimson)
