This extension is a must-have making Thunderbird mailhandling very powerful.

This makes Thunderbird so much more usable and efficient. This add on is indispensable for me. Thank you!!!

If it helps, some on my side Thunderbird's built-in keyboard shortcuts sometimes (only sometimes??) take priority over Nostalgy shortcuts. For example "S: Add a star" instead of S: Save". I solved my problem via the Thunderbird configuration editor and passing the following 2 parameters to False:
- accessibility.browsewithcaret_shortcut.enabled
- ui.key.textcontrol.prefer_native_key_bindings_over_builtin_shortcut_key_definitions

This application is fantastic. It lets you organise your messages quickly, with 2 main shortcuts "s" and "g" and the ability to find folders with just a few characters typed. It is too bad that it is no longer supported for TB115. I will ne obliged to use a former version of TB until Nostalgy++ is back agin in the main branch.

I feel Thunderbird becomes almost useless without this add-on. There should be a warning when upgrading Thunderbird if this add-on isn't compatible. That way, we won't upgrade if Nostalgy++ is still behind.

As many have said already, this is a fantastic app. My system just updated to T115. Although the new version of Tbird looks and feels great, it broke the best piece... Nostalgy. My productivity suddenly dropped. I can't wait for Nostalgy to be ported... For those who have not, donate so the authors can manage to do the port to the new Tbird version.
[What alternatives are there in the meantime?]

One of the most important Add-on in Thunderbird. I use it every day since years and it became mandatory for my work to stay organized. Hopefully version 115+ is supported soon. In the meantime I am using crappy alternatives and waiting for the long awaited update!

Indispensable, cannot live without it for much longer! Makes filing mails a breeze. I have donated. When will this be updated to 115

The absolutely greatest addon. Indispensable for me. How can we help to get it ported to TB115? I donated already. Are more donations necessary? What can we do???

The best TB addon, improving over the classic favorite Nostalgy. I really hope it will be compatible with TB115 soon.

Impressive plugin. Some suggestions that I think are easy:
- Remove the icon out of the status bar. It is very large relatively to the status bar. Just the text is fine.
- I would prefer the search view to have all email accounts/ folders collapsed.
- I would love for the search view to remember the last used criteria, so not to set them again and again when opening the panel.
I definitely will donate.

I could not live without this add-on! Combining Nostalgy++ with the tbkeys add-on means that I control Thunderbird with most of the same keystrokes I've been using since I did my email in Pine in the 1990s. There is no faster way to plow through a loaded inbox!

Als solches ein super Addon! Gerade, dass die gefundenen Mails direkt unten anzusehen sind, ist Gold wert und in keinem anderen Addon dieser Art zu finden.
Allerdings ist das Ganze ein wenig zu "Nostalgy"! Etwas responsive wäre schon nicht schlecht gewesen: Die Spalten der Bedingungen passen sich nicht in der Breite an, bei einem schmaleren Thunderbird-Fenster muss man ständig von links nach rechts scrollen. Das Mail-Ansichtfenster würde ich gerne in der Höhe etwas vergrößern können. Zudem wird auch die veränderbare Spaltenbreite der Ordner und Newsgruppen, als auch der rechten Spalten nicht gespeichert und muss bei jedem Öffnen neu angepasst werden. Eine Optimierung dahingehend wäre prima!

Nostalgy++ was already very good (and luckily a good alternative to Nostalgy) but Search is also a very nice feature.
What I think is the worst thing in Thunderbird is the Search function. Nostalgy++ search is better but still far from perfect. I would like it to be just like MailStore. I use MailStore find messages. I think there should be an option "Search All" and I think it's better not to constantly update the database but to do it just like MailStore. Click to update the indexed database. Takes a few minutes but you only use it if you also want to search for something received/sent not long ago, if not you use the old database.
Ps: Why not make it a separate extension?

This is an excellent TB add-on and I consider it very hard to work without it.
Many thanks to the developer for all his work and ongoing development.
A (stupid) question here about the new search feature - how do I open the search++ tab? What keystroke or action is the one to give me access to this search?
there is a top toolbar button with a searchglass and the ++. Press to see the new search in a tab.

Is quite good but the rules section can be more comprehensive to include criteria on:
- email age
- email size
and the action can include the default TB archive action rather then specifying a specific folder for those who store archived emails by year like me
