BiDi Mail UI

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

This add-on still reverses the display direction of previously sent Thunderbird messages. Seven months ago the author of this add-on promised us a Thunderbird-compatible version. He has yet to deliver. The add-on is not even at version 1.0 yet.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.9.8).  This user has a previous review of this add-on.

BiDi Mail UI

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Whereas Thunderbird is at Version 38.1 the add-on BiDi Mail UI, which is vital to those of us who send messages in Hebrew, Arabic, Aramaic, Farsi, Urdu and other right-to-left languages, is at Version 0.97 and has not changed in over three years. This add-on is painfully user-unfriendly and requires many manipulations to get messages to display correctly before and after they are sent. I find myself wasting five times as much time on composing a Hebrew message than on an English one. Worse than that, BiDi Mail UI causes already sent messages to display in the wrong direction.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.9.7).

I take that back. This add-on is compatible. The issue was with my firewall not letting Thunderbird through. Setting new rules in the firewall solves the problem. I apologize.

This add-on is incompatible with Thunderbird 4 to 6.
