Really happy with the looks but I am missing the simple 1-click on the "star" to add new email addresses to my contacts.

Using this Add-on, you have to Hover over the new ID, click + to add the contact to your address book. This functionality didn't work for me.
I am using 68.2.2 on Windows 10

Please address this issue at the earliest!!
Also, I would rather enjoy the 1-click on the "star" functionality instead of this hovering option.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.15.13).

Great ADD-ON. Multiple interface options revised nicely. However, I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars because the SAVE AS function is disabled when the email is open. I have to close the email and select FILE->SAVE AS to save the email in a folder. This is a big annoyance.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.15.13).

Its quite good, I can write my replies while looking at the previous mail. The conversations groupings can be a little better though. And why does it not save drafts?

Funziona molto bene, aggiunge una funzionalità assente in Thunderbird: organizzare le email in conversazioni!

Thunderbird is the best email client ever developed, and with this addon it is the best email program, even better than gmail itself.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.15.9).

I installed the add-on several months ago and it was working great and performing just like you would expect based on a typical GMail experience.

Recently I have found that the conversations being bundled are completely unrelated and share nothing in common. For example a credit card statement was bundled with a conversation I had with a friend about lawn furniture.

I figured it was a one off, and ignored it. Then it started happening more with large amounts of mis-bundled messages.

This becomes more complicated when you do a search for a message and you view the bundled messages and have all these unrelated messages to filter through.

I again figured (hoped) it was a reboot issue or some other such issue but after several months of struggling with it, I searched for a solution on the web and discovered that this is a problem they have had for years and don't have a solution for it. Very disappointed. In fairness to the developer, I have found they posted this on their FAQ https://github.com/protz/thunderbird-conversations/wiki/FAQ and while this issue may not be the fault of the developer it still makes the add-on and honestly, Thunderbird largely useless if you have (as I do) a plethora of chained messages.
