How can I change the language (not the spellchecking, but the system) in Thunderbird?

I've installed Thunderbird on a second pc and now it is in English. I want to change this (system) language into Dutch. So it is not about the spellchecker, but only the language used in the application

At the top of this forum is a link labeled Mozilla. Clicking that and them click Thunderbird. Under the Thunderbird download button it says other languages. You install the correct language from there.
