My Reviews
Quicktext
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
This add-on is very versatile and is fairly easy to use.
I use it to quickly insert different signatures (formal & family) in both English and German.
It can also be used for standard phrases within the e-mail (e.g. "have you tried turning it off and on again?")
Highly recommended!
I'm using Thunderbird 114 alpha, so I hope it will be compatible with that version SOON! :-)

This add-on is a great addition to Thunderbird. I wished it were ported into the default builds (see bug 91106).
The only thing I would like improved is the confusing Option for "[x] Only local changes (for IMAP)". It mentions "local" and "IMAP *together*, but the help text mentions "local TB database" and "IMAP compatible" as two SEPARATE and seemingly opposing options. I find that seeming contradiction confusing. A less confusing and more elaborate explanation for novices would be VERY useful. Five stars if this issue were improved.
Anyhow, thanks for this great add-on.
Unified Search
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Perfect add-on. Restores functionality that was negligently removed from Thunderbird and replaces the poorly executed and diminished default filter and search feature.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.6.4). This user has a previous review of this add-on.Unified Search
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Excellent add-on! The ability to do a quick-search without extra clicks and wasted vertical space should never have been removed from Thunderbird in the first place.Great job IagoSRL! The Thunderbird development decisions in the past few years have been overwhelmingly disappointing.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.5.0).CompactHeader
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
The two-line compact view and iconized buttons should be in the default built. Period.
Thanks for this excellent and badly needed extension!
Wizz RSS News Reader
Rated 2 out of 5 stars
Wizz doesn't work with Firefox nightly trunk builds, and seems very late in working with the newest releases. That's a deal breaker for me.
And the feed preview should have font size = 1 em - to allow the user to define the text size he wants to power-read in (Tools / Options / Content / Font).

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.0.0.3).Provider for Google Calendar
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
This add-on fulfills an import role for anyone who wants to be able to write to their Google Calendar from within Lightning.
Unfortunately, once you're done creating your calendars, and then de-select "check for new calendars", and you then add another Google Calendar you want to write to, there seems no way get the dialog back that upgrades the new calendar for write access.
Perhaps the add-on should not self-activate on Thunderbird load (it's annoying and unintuitive once you calendars are upgraded), but rather either activate when a new Google calendar is created, or when initiated by the user (via add-on Options or a right-click on a Calendar).

File Title
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
This function should have been in Firefox by default years ago!
It's high time that bug is fixed:
