Great potential here!
But it displayed my messages in a very small font size. Anyone know how to fix this?

It's a great tool!!!! So convenient!
There is only one thing I want to point out. Using the conversation reply does not include the signature? I hope this can be a feature in the next release.

Although Conversations is not compatible smoothly with some other extensions, it makes Thunderbird much more convenient to use and improves the workflow significantly. (TB 6.0 + Conversations 2.0.8)

doesnt work with Quick Translator 0.9...

once conversation is disabled, it works like a charm,..
I like the conversation view, but translation is more importent..!

...of the Gmail type threaded-conversations, if you like that. However, on installing, I was told by the system that I had to delete the global-messages-db.sqlite file twice because I had 'too many messages' to cope with. It broke Thunderbrowse which made doing things internal to Thunderbird more difficult when dealing with certain Internet-activity-centric emails. There wasn't any apparent option to include a 'Reply' or 'Actions' button on the top of the conversation, so you had to scroll down to the bottom of potentially long messages with longer sigs to find them. Uninstalled, and now Thunderbrowse still doesn't work, and attachments are no longer shown 'in line' as they were defaulted prior to this. I recommend it only for folk that are just starting out with their connection, and have limited need for 'other' functions in TB.

This add-on is great, now I have my e-mails the same way I have them in GMail.

Tried it, wasn't for me, no big deal, removed it. Now, it did NOT revert to my previous settings, even though that was exactly what was promised before I accepted the changes at first run!
For other users who want to remove Conversations, and only want the Inbox emails in their Inbox (and not any sent items): right-click on the unified inbox folder, select Properties, and untick all the Sent folders.

Using TB 6 on Mac OS 10.6.5 I found that after uninstalling TB Conversations all my international Characters (Umlauts, etc.) are displayed wrong. Could anybody please give me a hint how to get this fixed?

Wat een ellendige add-on is dit. na installatie werkt veel anders en kun je niets meer terug vinden. Werkt super vertragend in de dagelijkse werkzaamheden.

I liked the look of this addon and installed it. Initially it did what I expected and hoped but then I hit a problem. For security, I set all messages to initially download only the headers. If I want to go on a read the rest of a message I then click: "Download the rest of the message". However, although the status line states the message has been downloaded, it doesn't display in the tab. I have to close the tab and then reselect the message in order to get the message text displayed.
I reported this as a bug to the author and he replied that he does not and has no plans to support message header only downloads. Consequently this addon has little value for me and I have removed it. Pity!

Hmm, I think you overlooked two arrows (triangles) on top, where you can change folder structure as you like, group by account or by same folders.
I wonder is there a way to sort conversations so newest one comes on top? I used to look my e-mail that way older mail down, new messages on top (it is more logical for me).
It can be sorted in thunderbird window, but i do not see it in conversation window?

Don`t install these addon. After uninstall the addon is gone but the folder structure is NOT the same as before the install. Now you have all inboxes of ALL of your mail accounts an the normal accounts are the the botton (all other folders). So they are not together in any email account!!!!!Really sucks!!!! What can i do now to have the normal folder order after deinstalling this addon???? Hope the coder is reading it here to answer these question!!!!!!

Make it easier? Your sense of easier is strangely distorted. Easier is keeping each mail account separate. Easier is having messages open as I want them, in their own windows.
While the threading idea is nice and potentially useful, forcing it into a tab makes it unusable.

But why does it show me every message in thread 3 or more times?

quite cool...
if turned on header view to full, can see headers only if i open the mail in a new window. is it possible to have an option to see the headers in the pane view too?
regards

I used an older version before and there was a button to choose, if I want the conversation view or the regular.
Seems, that there is no button like this in the new version?

If you are used to gmail style threads, you must install this addon, it also looks great.

No apparent ability to search within message. Ctrl+F does not work. Am I missing something?
