libravatar support #25

Hi there,

as an more privacy friendly gravatar alternative, there is libravatar for self hosting. So you can detect the service via DNS and only the domain can see whos pulling the avatars and not a third party.

Would be nice to see such support in Thunderbird :-)

We are hosting an internal avatar service with an api compatible with gravatar.

Maybe a solution to this would be to allow access to the md5 hash of the email to construct a custom avatar url. Then it would be possible to use any avatar service that use a md5 hash based url (would work with both gravatar and libravatar).
