Folder Categories

To categorize a folder, right-click it in the folder pane and select "Set Category…" You can then select one of the preexisting options or just type your new category name in.

To select the Categorized Folders mode, use the left and right arrows in the folder pane to cycle through the modes until you see the proper mode. It should be before the All Folders mode.

More information is accessible at the project page on Mozdev.

Known bugs:
* Cross-folder via the 'n' key does not switch to another folder unless the server it's in is expanded.

This is believed to be the first extension to create a new custom folder pane view. As such, feedback about bugs that may be a result of improper core code would be appreciated.

Some add-ons ask for permission to perform certain functions. Since you’re in control of your Thunderbird, the choice to grant or deny these requests is yours.

Please note this add-on uses legacy technology, which gives it access to all browser functions and data without requesting your permission.
