In a little more detail...

I broke my body on the job, so I'm not able to DO much anymore. Fortunately, my brain still works (when I can get it to boot), so I practice my grammar and punctuation doing stuff like this (please note: the preceding statement is an excellent example of incorrect sentence structure).

So I'm limping, along with my antique (WIN XP) desktop, working the kinks out of the newest Mozilla updates, so that if I ever get it fixed LONG enough, I can just plug in to the "new" machine I have waiting. AS IF...

Restart

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Very handy tool, like it very much! Does exactly what it's supposed to do, and very quickly. Thank you!

Send and File

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I couldn't edit my above review, so here's the update: the author & I exchanged a couple of emails (he got with me very promptly), and it works beautifully now. This is an incredibly handy Extension, and saves me LOTS of time scrolling to & fro to file my mails. Just exactly what I was looking for! Big THANKS to Paulo for saving me frustration with my OCD!

Sun Cult

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

All cultures have myths around the sun & moon, and here in my neck of the woods, at the highest point of the New Moon, one "shakes their money at the moon" to bring good fortune--now I know *exactly* what time to do it! Will let you know if it helps! ;~)I LOVE this add-on! I'd give it 10 stars (and maybe a New Moon, if I could ;~) It's pretty, it's practical, and very valuable to me. I used to keep up with this info using various websites, but now, it just sits right there in my mailbox! Is there a version for Firefox? Works with TB 11.0.1--now they're asking me to update, and oh, how I hate to--all my add-ons WORK right now...===============================================Addendum: Works with TB 12 AND FX 12!! Outstanding!
+++++NEW Addendum: STILL works with V24 of Fx, Tb, and most important, Pale Moon (where those of us EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED with Fx stunts have moved...till Mozy code completely ruins it, too...)

RealPrevNextButtons

THANKS FireballMonkey for *your* frustration and sparing the rest of us! Great news that it will soon (finally) be built-in, as it should have been all along!https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/rpnb-new/?src=cb-dl-usersWhy on earth does mozilla.org leave references to the obsolete (that we have to fix ourselves) when someone has generously shared *their* fixes? ~just sayin'~
If you're up to it, I concur with kiki78 and Paddy Landau's second suggestion--it would be helpful if we could SEE where we are...

SmilieInserter Plus

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Makes my emails FUN! My writing style can be candid and fastidious, and this way I can really express what I'm trying to say. And the author of this enjoyable little ditty is incredibly responsive to comments and suggestions, and is more than happy to help. Great, fun add-on, and I hope this author continues to develop others. He's done a mighty fine job on this one!

RealPrevNextButtons for new Thunderbird versions

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

At last--something that's been needed since forever. And it really works. Great add-on!

Saved Password Editor

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Works perfectly. Does exactly what it says it does, and helped me clean up quite a mess in my passwords.
Great add-on!

Quote Colors

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

A star off because I HAD to do it myself...
In config editor find the line: extensions.minCompatibleAppVersion, and change the value to 0.3.

Worked for me immediately! Be nice if the author would update this really cool add-on.

Forecastfox Weather

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Finally! Something to fill all that empty space on the toolbar! I just set it up; LOVE that it's instantly customizable--you can play with the buttons, and it shows up immediately! No click, just hover to see what you want. I haven't fully tested it yet, but so far, it's just about perfect.

I would like the ability to zoom the radar a few hundred miles closer, though. I live in a tiny little flyspeck town on the border of TX/OK, and I'd like to see what's happening just a few miles away rather than 4 states. But that's just me ;-)

All in all, fantastic job!

Manually sort folders

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I LOVE this extension. It does exactly what's needed, no more, no less, and does so perfectly. I would, however, like to see a toolbar button created so I don't have to wade through menus to re-adjust. But it is awesome, and just exactly what I wanted. Thank you!

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0.1).
