I do not, please inform me, since as far as I know Firefox was always trying to be featurefull browser.

please inform me

Mozilla Application Suite contained an email client and a HTML editor, among other things. Firefox was supposed to "just a browser", so to speak:

Firefox was created in 2002 under the code name "Phoenix" by members of the Mozilla community who desired a standalone browser rather than the Mozilla Application Suite bundle.

According to the downvotes, hardly anyone remembers, even Mozilla is falling for feature creep again.
