Hi Warren. I saw that there's a successor addon called "cb_thunderlink". Please check it out. I'm currently not planing on fixing the original ThunderLink, also based on the assumption that cb_thunderlink gets the job done.

hi. when did you send me a message?

[EDIT]
your email was in my spam folder. I'll take a look at it this weeked.

okay, first: ThunderLinks in Events and Tasks was not a usecase I thought of when I started, probably because of the "convert to" option. So much for the "long way".
That said, this does sound useful. And it should be doable. It won't be ready for Christmas, though, that's for sure.

second: I don't think it should go into the "convert to" submenu. After all, you don't get a converted version of the email but rather a reference to it.

hi,
First of all: At the end of the plugin description there is a note about what to do if you need support. Please contact me using the address provided there for further communication and don't post your questions here.
Secondly: it seems you can install the ThunderLink extension in Seamonkey (instructions below).
Right-clicking on an email will then give you the option to copy a thunderlink into the clipboard. What you then can do is open seamonkey with the -thunderlink option like that:
seamonkey -thunderlink "<the thunderlink goes here>"

This will open that single email. I'm not sure if that's enough for your usecase, but if it is then you'll have to do the following to install ThunderLink in seamonkey:

1. Download the ThunderLInk .xpi file using right-click
2. Open the file with a zip-archive reader and extract the install.rdf file
3. Add the following below the entry for thunderbird: <em:targetApplication>
<Description><!-- seamonkey -->
<em:id>{92650c4d-4b8e-4d2a-b7eb-24ecf4f6b63a}</em:id>
<em:minVersion>2.0</em:minVersion>
<em:maxVersion>2.*</em:maxVersion>
</Description>
</em:targetApplication>
4. Put the new install.rdf in the archive
5. Install the .xpi in Seamonky; restart

Please let me know if that helped. I'm afraid, though, that there's little else that can be done. The full functionality of the plugin (selecting the email in the already-open inbox view) unfortunately doesn't work with seamonkey.

[Edit]
So, I end up with three stars because my plugin didn't do what you thought it might?

hi,

I had a chance to look at your issue, but it doesn't look good.

Regarding your solution: I'm afraid it's a dead end. We need a way to pass the actual ThunderLink to TB, but Firefox does not provide a means to do that. This has to be done by the underlying OS, and it works fine on Windows and Linux. There is definitely also a way to do that on OSX but I didn't fully implement it because I ran into a bigger problem on the way:

Basically, the problem ist that OSX doesn't seem to allow more than one instance of TB to be launched. So, when TB is up and running, launching it again from the command line with the -thunderlink option will result in an error message, whereas on Windows and Linux machines, the option would be passed on to the running instance where it would subsequently be used to select the email referenced by the ThunderLink.
If I observed things correctly, you should get the error message, too, when you use the way you described above to call TB. Just do it twice in a row.

I will post this problem on mozillazine. Maybe there is some workaround, but seems to me like an OS limitation/feature that we won't be able to circumvent. Sorry.

regards,
poohsen

thanks for the review. I sent you an email regarding your request.

Hi Chad,thanks for the comment. I wanted to include this info a while ago but eventually forgot to. Getting the argument and the quotation marks right could be tricky for inexperienced users, though, so it's good you posted it. I've taken the liberty of copying the script into the addon description.Regards,Chris


Edit: Just saw that I had already listed the .reg in the description for ThunderLinkSpotter. It's good to have it here too, though.


Btw: what's still missing in the addon for you to give it 5 stars?
