My Reviews

Manually sort folders

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I've used this both for reordering the accounts, and for reordering the Local folders, and both work great.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.1). 

Launchy

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This add-on provides exactly what I was looking for - a context menu option for choosing which browser to open links with.
I am now using it with both Firefox and Thunderbird, on 64-bit Windows 7.
Tip 1: The add-on Homepage explains how to create a "Launchy.xml" file for manually configuring the context menu items. A tab in the Add-on Options shows the path of the chrome folder into which the launchy.xml file should be placed. If there is no chrome folder in that location, create the folder.
Tip 2: If the Launchy context menu indicates that no applications were found, it may be due to a syntax problem in the launchy.xml file. Don't include double quotes around the program path. Backslashes and spaces within the program path seem to be ok. After updating the launchy.xml file, close Thunderbird and restart it for the changes to get picked up.

RefControl

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The add-on works fine, but the functionality isn't what I was expecting. I thought that it was for configuring the referring URL that would get sent FROM a particular site, rather than the URL that is sent TO the site. It might help if the add-on's description were updated to clarify this.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.8.16.1-signed.1-signed). 

toggleDocumentColors

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Thank you, I was looking for something like this! When viewing photos and videos, I have to switch my monitor's settings to very bright in order to be able to see them well, but then having a a white page background hurts my eyes. So being able to easily switch the page colors is very useful for me.

The only draw-back I've found is that some sites like YouTube use the user's text color by default, even when overriding the background color. Note that this is a problem with the website, not with the add-on - the problem occurs even without the add-on installed. So if your settings are a black background and yellow text, for example, then when viewing that site with the page-specified settings, you may get (their) white background and (your) yellow text, which is not a good combination. But since this add-on makes it easy to toggle between the page settings and my own settings, that's not a big problem for me.
