Thunderbird silent install
Use the combination of simply extracting the app's files to the destination, then applying the INF.

Wow! Maybe I was really busy that's why I didn't realize that it was out!

About the silent install, you can also build your own installer based from the zip version.

I'm not sure what "old methods" you are talking about, but I was able to create my own installer (as MCT suggests) by following instructions written for an older version posted here. To summarize that post:

-Run the Thunderbird install program normally.
-Copy the temp folder it creates and then cancel the installation
-Replace the "setup.exe" file that ships with Thunderbird with the one that comes with the Mozilla package. (You can download it here, or download the Mozilla package and extract it yourself.)
-Edit "config.ini," replacing "Run mode=normal" with "Run mode=silent"
-Repack the contents of your copied Thunderbird temp folder into a self-extracting archive that will execute "setup.exe -ira" after unpacking.

This is how I made my silent install package, and it worked perfectly. I was also able to configure the SFX to extract itself to a temporary directory so that it will clean itself up once the installation is finished. Hope this helps.

Thanks to gon freecs for posting the original link to the Mozilla setup.exe that I used earlier today.

For lazy people, here is a silent installer. No switch needed.

It is just a basic Mozilla Thunderbird 1.0 msi, packed with WinRAR to make the installer smaller, and to trigger the quet installation (/qb switch).
