Just stay with Firefox, though I've never used Mozilla Suite before. Why do I say that? Firefox has more themes and extensions for it than Mozilla Suite.

I've used the Mozilla Suit before. It was a pretty old version, so it probably changed considerably, but when I used it, it was bloated, clunky, and slow.
Firefox is still a bit slow compared to IE, and many sites don't work right or won't work at all (so I still keep Maxthon around for that), but it's very clean and very customizable, with a nice selection of excellent features. Similar goes for ThunderBird, and the RSS feed feature is awesome. I'd go with that if I were you.

Wait, Mozilla Suite is an e-mail program as well as a web browser? I thought it was just a web browser.

It's a software suite. That means it's got several apps or functionalities bundled together. So, yes. I only really tried out the browser part before I got thoroughly sick of it, though I did spend a minute or two with the e-mail client and found it wasn't much better than the browser. That was a pretty old version, mind you, and was one of my biggest turn-offs to Mozilla for a while. Things have no doubt changed.
Still when in doubt between a collection of individual programs and a suite of similar programs, keep in mind that a Jack of all trades is a master of none.

Yes, the Mozilla Suite is just that, a suite. It contains both the browser (Mozilla) and an email client (Thunderbird). I would suggest trying out using Firefox and Thunderbird, as Mozilla is a big bloated (takes long to load and has many many features that you probably won't use).
