Proton Mail Toolbar Button
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Lars, awesome, you are indeed correct - I was looking for the button in the unified toolbar customizations - but as you noted, it appears on the Spaces Toolbar - excellent, and thank you!

A good idea, but unfortunately as TB has made access to the unified toolbar in TB 115 very difficult, it appears not to work for TB 115.

Super add-on. Version 14.1 works for TB 115! Eyal is still working on being able to add buttons to the unified toolbar (made difficult by TB), but Ctrl+Shift+X cycles through LTR, RTL options when you have a received message open. LTR and RTL menu buttons are present for composing messages, as before.
Many thanks, Eyal!
Rise of the Tools
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
With TB 11.0 on both WinXP and Win Vista (lastest SPs), the add-on does not support the Show "icons and text" customization (meaning show text below the icon) on the tool bar - it instead puts the text beside the icons, causing some of my tool bar items to disappear off the edge of the screen. With some tweaking, this will be a great add-on to combat the annoying loss of choice as to where the tool-bar goes in TB 11.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0.0.0).RealPrevNextButtons
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
This is an excellent add-on that really needs to be incorporated into Thunderbird itself. The functionality of this add-on is already built into TB with the F(orward) and B(ackward) keys on the keyboard, but without the buttons/icons on the Mail toolbar, which this add-on supplies (note that you must customize [right-click] your Mail toolbar to actually add the buttons). F = Real Next [right arrow]; (next item down); B = [left arrow] Real Previous (next item up), regardless of the date-sort selection chosen. The standard Previous and Next buttons supplied with TB jump to the next UNREAD message (ggrrrrrrhhhh!). Most people would want the (real) next or (real) previous message as the default, regardless of the read/unread status.
The add-on does require the Add-On Compatibility Reporter (ACR) add-on to be installed to overcome TB's current reporting of RealPrevNextButtons as incompatible. However, the add-on works with TB 3.0-9.0 at least. Be sure to send a compatibility report to TB for this add-on so that Mozilla knows it is compatible with 9.0 at least. (An alternative solution to the incompatibility problem is to modify Darth_Vukster's July 14, 2011 instructions [below] for the version of TB that you have).
With our Win Vista Home Premium TB installation the buttons were initially blank/invisible (no problems at all with Win XP), as some other reviewers have reported, but that was fixed by installing the Classic Reloaded appearance/theme (1.5.2 at time of writing), and has now worked for every TB from 3.0-9.0.
This add-on is highly recommended! Please, Mozilla, include it with TB as standard - it only requires you to add icons to match the F and B keys that are already part of TB's functionality!
