What it needs (permissions)...
The addon requires the following permissions:
- Have full, unrestricted access to Thunderbird, and your computer
The ability to detect changes in the recipient list, as well as the ability to automatically change the dictionary language and detect changes in code is required. Unfortunately, Thunderbirds permission-based API is not providing this feature yet and an experimental API is required. This is why we need this permission. Further details can be read here.
