Disable DragAndDrop (New)

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Very handy !

4-stars, because the Option "Allow the folder movement if drag starts with shift key pressed" does not work !

Tried both shift-keys. After disabling the add-on, the drag can be done

TB 128.4.0esr + v5.5.0

Expression Search - NG

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Thanks for this TB128 compatible addon upgrade.

If I could get rid of the annoying "History Popup" it would be a 5-star.
Please make the "History" or the "History Popup" optional, for me it's not needed at all.

Great to see that "simple:" is working again

Expression Search - NG

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I'm still using TB 115 for addon compatibility reasons. The remaining not compatible one is "Expression Search - NG".

"Expression Search - NG" is a must-have !

Are there plans to make it compatible with TB >128 ? Or has this great addon been abandoned ?

Would be great to be informed what we can (not) expect !

Thank you

Phoenity Icons

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Great Icons !!!
Just a pity that it is not possible to use only
- Toolbar buttons
- Folder pane icons
- Message header toolbar buttons
or any combination.

I need only the Toolbar Buttons and the Message header toolbar Buttons

FileLink Provider for Box

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Not working on TB102.

The One-Time Password is never accepted (returned as invalid).
And yes, when I login on box.com via a browser, the 2FA is accepted, so NOT invalid.

Addon Compatibility Check for TB 102/TB 115/TB 128

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Very handy Addon !

Just a pity that not all disabled addons are reported.

I'm migrating to TB102 from TB60 and have a lot of disabled / obsolete pre-webextention add-ons which aren't listed ( replacement work-in-progress ) . A lot of research / work / testing !

Having different profiles, the same migration is needed everywhere and a complete report would be a great help to do this. Copying all addons from one profile to another would even be better, but I think that isn't possible in TB

Automatic Dictionary

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Great and handy tool !

Just a pity that it can't been used as a dictionary toggle, i.e. clicking a dictionary disables the others instead of having to select a dictionary and having to disable the other(s)

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.2.4). 

Awesome Auto Archive

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Just tried AAA 0.8 on TB 60.6.1.
Can't find a way to have it running automatically. Always says "Schedule Disabled".
Manual run works

Tag Sequence Arranger

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Doesn't work with TB 60.3.3 : Is installed since long but now marked as incompatible

Phoenity Shredder

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great theme !

It's just so a pity that the Reply/Forward/Redirect icons are so very difficult to see on the Open/Closed envelope of emails.

I think it would be better to use a much lighter blue for the envelope and/or a larger icon-superposition for Reply/Forward/Redirect

--------> FYI: The Envelope + icon-superposition (Reply/Forward/Redirect) used for the buttons in the Message-pane are much better (as the arrows are coming out of the envelope) !!!! Why not using these for emails too ?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update 3.5.57 : A great thanks for the developer as he changed the envelope-color so that the Reply/Forward/Redirect icon-superposition is much better visible. Great !!!

Correct Identity

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This is really a very useful and great addon.

But one option is missing.

It happens all the time to me, when replying to a message stored in archive folder, that I use an unwanted Identity

So it would be great if it was also possible to choose in the Options for "none" / "empty" or alike as choice for "When Composing a new message"

That way, while composing the mail, selecting an identity manually becomes mandatory.

mailmindr

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

This is a very useful addon ! A timesaver in mail follow-up.

Just a pity there is an icon problem : the icon which can be dragged to the mailheader toolbar, doesn't have a graphic, it's just a small empty button.

Actually I'm on TB 52.4.0 (32bit) and am sure the problem existed in TB 51.1.1 but don't know in what TB-version it started.

Is this recognizable ?

I contacted the author several times about this, without luck.

I remember, a while ago, the mailredirect addon had the same problem. Tha author reverted a Windows XP styling for the addon, and everything was ok.

Mail Redirect

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Just a pity that it's not possible to use it within filters !

Awesome Auto Archive

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

I have Thunderbird setup to archive with

Yearly archived folders
Keep existing folder structure


When I archive in TB a message from the Inbox, it get's stored under Archives\2016\Inbox
When I use AwesomeArchive with the Scope-Only it get's stored under Archive\2016

When I archive in TB a message from the Inbox\AAA, it get's stored under Archives\2016\Inbox\AAA
When I use AwesomeArchive with the Scope-Only it get's stored under Archive\2016\AAA

As a result, it's not possible with AwesomeArchive to archive messages from Inbox or Sent in corresponding Subdir

Maybe It's by-design but I consider it as wrong. The TB-rules should be followed, eventually with an overuling separate switch or additional Scopes in AwesomeArchive.

If this would be changed, then the Addon would be very usefull !
I contacted the author several times, but it seems we no longer can expect progress in it, really really a pity

Stylish - Custom themes for any website

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Really a pity, but I need Stylish just because of the "Firefox Reader: Custom width + multi column" style.

If that wasn't the case, I would remove Stylish asap because about:performance reports it as "Stylish may currently be slowing down Firefox".

Not occasionally, but all the time

Expression Search / GMailUI

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

There was no way to update to the newer gmailui-1.0-tb.xpi with the AddOn Updater (always gave a download-error) !
The good news is : after downloading the gmailui-1.0-tb.xpi manually / locally and installing (actually updating) from the saved file, it works in TB45

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.9.1-let-fixed). 

Signature Switch

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Indeed, annoying it doesn't use the already configured settings to determine where the signature should come. Now always at the end (in a reply)

Otherwise a very handy tool !

RDown - Rapidshare Downloader

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

There is a problem with the installation : Firefox could not install the file at

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/downloads/latest/8376/addon-8376-latest.xpi?src=addondetail

because: Invalid file hash (possible download corruption)

Copy Sent to Current

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Hi,
Seems to be a great Add-On coming near to something (simple) I'm looking after since (years) I use TB, namely having messages in the Send-Folder initially with the flag UnRead.

FYI: I didn't try the AddOn as from the description it doesn't have the feature I'm looking after

Now, when I want to follow-up a sent message, I have to go to the Send-Folder, search for the message (my Send-folder is sorted UnRead/Read + Date) and mark the message Unread.

A variant of this AddOn could greatly do the job : when sending ask for Unread/Read and done.

Would be great !
