Thunderbird Conversations

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

I like this extension but it will hide headers and there is no way to enable / view them afaik with the exception of the "View using classic reader" option. One example is the user agent header. I am not referring to the add-on/extension but every Thunderbird, at least from version 5, has the option to display the user-agent header with the rest of the headers if you open about:config and set mailnews.headers.showUserAgent to true. Once I installed Thunderbird Conversations, this header is gone and I found the only way I can view it is if I click on "View using classic reader". That's my only gripe since, otherwise, this extension is great. I mean the cosmetics of it are nice to look at but even more importantly, it makes reading a thread a breeze. If it were not for the lack of headers and no way to configure which ones are shown (again, afaik) then I would rank this 5 stars.
