30 Frames per Second: A weblog of my life as the new video production and social media intern

Today spent part of the day try to get Thunderbird to work with growl. Finally after a lot of tinkering and testing got it to work. If you want to get growl to work for you go http://www.neilturner.me.uk/2005/Nov/04/growl_and_thunderbird.html The part I got hung up on was when he says to:

Save this somewhere where you can access it - mine’s in my home folder - and then open a terminal and type chmod u+x growlNotify to give the script execute permissions.

I thought he was talking about permission for the growlnotify in your /usr/local/bin folder when in actually it was the shell script that need to be copied to your home folder.
