I use Thunderbird with e-mail-based patch review, and much of the tooling is based upon Message IDs. I use this multiple times every day. For example, if I want to direct someone to a posting on a Linux kernel mailing list, I can just copy the Message ID with this Add-on, and then supply a simple URL https://msgid.link/<ID>

Before I found this Add-on I used to display source and then search for the actual tag. This Add-on saves so much time.

It works. But how do we open a message directly from messageid using commandline?

works as advertised, thanks.

Most useful to me in combination with MailMerge where I prepare my CSV and attachements from command line and then open the appropriate mail template from the command line "thunderbird -mail <id from your extension>".

Love it, thanks !

Very useful for quickly adding a reference to a specific emails in text files, calendar entries etc. :)

I have one feature suggestion:

An option to copy a GMail link instead of the bare message id.
That is, instead of XXX (the message id), copy
https://mail.google.com/mail/#search/in%3Aanywhere+rfc822msgid%3AXXX

(see https://stackoverflow.com/a/19247147/2646248)

This would allow to insert link in, say, calendar entries, and quickly look the mail up (assuming one is logged into the right GMail account).
