AI Mail Support 0.88
by Yellow Sakura
Add-on designed to enhance email management for both personal and professional use, integrating a set of adanced AI (LLM) features to optimize the email management experience.
About this Add-on
Have you ever had an inbox full of hundreds of unread emails that you need to respond?
We have, and more than once.
That's why we decided to create this add-on for Thunderbird to help manage the multitude of emails we read daily as part of our work activities.
Several LLMs (Large Language Models) are integrated to provide a range of options for advanced text management, operating at the deepest possible semantic level.
Once the add-on is activated and configured, you can interact with AI services directly within Thunderbird at three different locations:
Regardless of how a request for processing is made, the output (audio or text) will be displayed in a dedicated pop-up at the bottom of the mail client.
The LLMs providers* currently supported are:
* To use them, it is necessary to create an account on the respective platforms and enable an API access key.
Usage fees apply; for more details, please refer to the respective websites.
ATTENTION 1: The services offered by Groq Cloud include the option to use a free plan, albeit with low rate limits on requests.
ATTENTION 2: Unlike other LLM models, Ollama allows you to run open-source models directly on your own PC, with no additional costs and maximum privacy, as everything is executed locally.
The downside is that this requires SIGNIFICANT hardware resources.
AI Mail Support is an open-source project, complete code available on GitHub under the MIT license.
