Not worth the trouble; it overrides too much else and it never learned how to play with other kids in the sand box.

Excellent except...in-message links that open other pages don't always work. Specifically YouTube links don't open. It says Loading Message but does nothing. Choosing 'View using the classic reader' solves it. A very good extension however.
Upon further investigation it appears there's a conflict with 'ThunderBrowse'. Disabling the latter causes all links to be opened in the default browser, YouTube included.

Thanks for this add-on, really simple and usefull !
Email in conversations display style is really efficient.
But I have a question. The test size is a little bit too small when a edit a email in the conversations style. I tried to change parameters in Thunderbird preferences, but text size is still small.
Hi,

A significant step for Thunderbird to get to easiness of using Gmail.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.0.8).Rated 3 out of 5 stars
This is not bug but option that i'd like to use.
when i print a mail i can't see my mail adress but "me"; i would prefer to see my email adress
when i print a mail i see the time if it a mail of the day, i see the week day if it's a mail of the week and the date, after. i would prefer to see always the date.

Nice idea, but I recommend to NOT use this. It is not compatible with lots of default functionality, e.g., you can no longer Print from the File menu or using CTRL-P, and it does no longer print images. Also, print preview is no longer available, and you cannot open new messages in new tabs. So it is very poorly intregrated in Thunderbird 6 and breaks lots of functionality. Too much for me, will never use this again.

This is a very useful add-on to display conversions, but it makes ThunderBrowse add-on behave in a strange way: if I open a link in Thunderbird, it displays not only the linked content, but also the original message containing link in the same tab (so the screen is divided in two parts - web page above, message below). That's frustrating, for I had to switch to 'normal view' prior to opening any link in the message :( Thunderbird 6.0, Mac OS X 10.6.8

This add-on is NOT compatible with 6.0
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.0.8).Interesting. Of all dozens of thousands of users running on 6.0, you're the only one who seems to have problems. Care to explain why?

Conversations works better than I had expected. I really should pay less attention to the "doom sayers". I very much appreciate how the conversation thread is pulled up from all folders (eg, sent folder) and brought together. That alone makes this top notch! But there's so much more going on. Thank you very much!! And I should add, that yes, the virtual folders are still there-- they are simply not the presenting folder view.

Great potential here!
But it displayed my messages in a very small font size. Anyone know how to fix this?

It's a great tool!!!! So convenient!
There is only one thing I want to point out. Using the conversation reply does not include the signature? I hope this can be a feature in the next release.

Although Conversations is not compatible smoothly with some other extensions, it makes Thunderbird much more convenient to use and improves the workflow significantly. (TB 6.0 + Conversations 2.0.8)

doesnt work with Quick Translator 0.9...

I like the conversation view, but translation is more importent..!

...of the Gmail type threaded-conversations, if you like that. However, on installing, I was told by the system that I had to delete the global-messages-db.sqlite file twice because I had 'too many messages' to cope with. It broke Thunderbrowse which made doing things internal to Thunderbird more difficult when dealing with certain Internet-activity-centric emails. There wasn't any apparent option to include a 'Reply' or 'Actions' button on the top of the conversation, so you had to scroll down to the bottom of potentially long messages with longer sigs to find them. Uninstalled, and now Thunderbrowse still doesn't work, and attachments are no longer shown 'in line' as they were defaulted prior to this. I recommend it only for folk that are just starting out with their connection, and have limited need for 'other' functions in TB.

This add-on is great, now I have my e-mails the same way I have them in GMail.

Tried it, wasn't for me, no big deal, removed it. Now, it did NOT revert to my previous settings, even though that was exactly what was promised before I accepted the changes at first run!
For other users who want to remove Conversations, and only want the Inbox emails in their Inbox (and not any sent items): right-click on the unified inbox folder, select Properties, and untick all the Sent folders.
