FiltaQuilla

Version Information

Version 5.3 Released June 25, 2025 736.2 KiB Works with Thunderbird 128.0 - 140.*

Upcoming in the next big release: Thunderbird will soon ask you to choose your preferred update path — either the annual ESR track or the faster monthly releases. Learn more about the new release model

The ESR version will stay on v140, increasing minor version numbers and including only security fixes and bug patches, which is often preferable for corporate environments.

The monthly release cycle will deliver new features and interface updates as they’re developed. Please check whether your current add-ons support this release model. To help with this, you can install the Add-on Compatibility Check.

Improvements

Made compatible with Thunderbird 140.*.
Improvement in asynchronous Save Attachments, leading to slow down of Thunderbird when filtering POP3 mail (no copy listener) [issue 349]. We are now allowed to use nsIThreadManager.processNextEvent() in order to give cycles back to the system while the attachments are processed. Please restart Thunderbird to force changes to come into effect.
Play sound improvements: Fixed open sound file button, extracting the supplied sounds to the default folder profile/extensions/filtaquilla and added a play sound button to filter editor.[issue 350]

Miscellaneus

Refactored internal action logic for better maintainability and consistency.
Rewrote `saveMessageAsFile` to support concurrency and cleaner path handling.

Support My Work

As I am often asked about added features for filter conditions and actions for my Add-on quickFilters - FiltaQuilla is a better location for extending Filter behavior - specifically adding new types of Actions and Conditions.

If you want to support the FiltaQuilla project, please install quickFilters and
purchase a quickFilters Pro license.

There is also currently a sale on for my Add-on QuickFolders - if you have many folders, do download a version to test it out.

You can now also donate directly here.
