My Reviews

Silvermel

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Looks really nice on Windows 10.

Try it with the following:

Theme Font & Size Changer extension using "Adobe Gothic Std B" 14.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.6.1). 

Quicktext

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Does the job with a simple, uncluttered and useful interface.

Would like to see the quick text buttons on the same line as the formatting buttons, as it currently leaves a lot of blank space.

AddressBookTab

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Works very well and gets the job done. Vital addition to Thunderbird!

Simple Week View

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Wonderful idea, but sadly, MANY BUGS.

When "previous weeks to show" (in Lightning options) is set to 1 week, the "simple week" calendar for this week is a week off, showing last week's calendar! When "previous weeks to show" is set to 2 weeks, the "simple week" calendar for THIS week is 2 weeks old. Also, "previous week/next week" in the right-click menu have no text.

And one more thing ... when "Week starts on Sunday" is set in options, the Sunday that is showing on the weekend days is actually LAST Sunday! For example, this week's calendar shows the days in the following order: March 2, 3 ,4, 5, 6, 1.

Hope the developer can fix these issues soon...it would be very nice otherwise. I do remember this layout from Organizer, which I used for many years.

I see no "support" page so I have to report this here.

UPDATE: I've removed the addon for now. Awaiting a fixed version to try out.

Search as list

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The default TB mail search is dreadful, and leaving me cursing every time I used it. I just wanted to see the results as a list, period, without any other nonsense.

Thank you for making this happen!!!

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.1a). 

Phoenity Shredder

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Fun, colorful and very nice to look at. The designer has shown great attention to detail. Makes the boring task of maintaining mail a little nicer!!

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.5.13). 

Today's messages

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

I have many rules that file incoming messages to folders. Therefore, I need a way to see today's messages in all folders.

Quicktext

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Signatures can be such a headache in TB, but this extension finally gave me a way to manage them! Nice implementation. The only add-on that's been able to fulfill my very simple request: just insert my signature, right here (where my cursor is), right now. Simple as that. I plan to use it for many other things -- boiler plate text, etc.I like the extra touches -- insert thunderbird version, etc.

One small complaint -- wish there was a way to control where the signature/variables/other buttons show up.

Quick Folder Move

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

Not ready for prime time.
- should show entire sorted folder tree
- search box does not find all my folders

Been searching for something like this for a while. Looking forward to a fully functional version!

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.9). 

Edit Email Subject (EES)

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Brilliantly simple, and solves one of the most annoying aspects of email correspondence: receiving an email message with a subject that does not match. Nice work!

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.0.2). 

CompactHeader

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

I think that the UI for the options is confusing. Also, when I setup the buttons as a sidebar I had issues adding and removing buttons. It would not allow me, for example, to add a Print button. It seemed like it got added but then the button was not there when I hit Done. Only after restarting did the buttons show up. Please clean up the UI, fix the bugs and it might be a hit.

Walnut2 for Thunderbird

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

As most of you do, I spend a lot of time processing incoming email. I don't use (or even own) a smart phone, as I prefer the old fashioned email client.
<br>Walnut2 really adds a new dimension to what is, after all, a pretty boring task. <br><br>I've always enjoyed the beauty of real wood, and Walnut2 is a pretty convincing theme that really looks beautiful. I particularly like the different shades of walnut and how they contrast with one another.<br><br>(One small annoyance: When dragging an email to a folder, the email being dragged turns very dark and obscures the folder I'm trying to drop onto. Would love to see that fixed!)<br><br>Nice work Alfred. I'm actually enjoying hanging around in the Inbox again!

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.8.78).
