CardBook

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I can confirm that Google sync resumes to work again if I set general.useragent.compatMode.firefox to false (= the default - I had set it to true before).

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (55.6).

What can we do to motivate you to upgrade to TB 78? There is NO quota add-on for TB 78 currently!

QNote

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

by ths on Oct. 1, 2020 ·

I installed and tested 0.5.3 - it's marvellous, about everything is working now! Even the note's position is restored (like in XNote++ before) - after you've set its position once using QNote.
One thing strange though: when I change tabs in Thunderbird (e.g. from [Inbox] to [Add-ons]) while a QNote is open, this note is kept open in the new tab. XNote++ closed the note as soon as the tab changed.

QNote

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

by ths on Sept. 21, 2020 ·

Some hints and observations.
@GetSat (2) You can add a new tag (e.g. 'XNote') using the tag manager (on the main menu). Then "Use tag [XNote]" in the Add-On settings for QNote, don't forget to [Save].
@GetSat (3) Martins (developer) says: "Popup positions currently can't be set due to API limitations"
@GetSat Re "Import old XNotes and to export QNotes": QNote uses the same file format as XNote++ does. If you edit the Add-On settings / Storage: (o) Local folder e.g. /home/<user>/.thunderbird/12345678.default-release/QNote you will see .xnote files in this folder, just like under XNote++. You may also copy your existing xnote files
into the folder and you will revive your notes under QNote.
@Brother Rabbit: using Add-On settings / Storage: (o) Local folder e.g. /home/<user>/.thunderbird/12345678.default-release/QNote is good to receive all your existing .xnote (XNote++) files. After that you will see all your existing notes appear in QNote.

@Martins Lazdans:
You might have won the bounty at https://www.bountysource.com/issues/92160540-add-support-for-thunderbird-78 :-))
I've run your qnote-0.2-tb.xpi through https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/f1c5560a7107ff9eb47f7c04b670297d9918aeb01f4aa36280e37824840ee584/detection , it's clean. I also recognized that you did not attempt the _locales yet, otherwise it looks fine.

XNote++

I'm using it as a (very good) replacement for Message Notes Plus, the notes addon I was using before it was rendered obsolete by TB68++.
I've written a converter from Message Notes Plus to XNote++ to keep my MNP notes, see https://github.com/alehro/message-notes-plus/issues/3

Message Notes Plus

I was able to move my Message Notes to XNote++, another note extension for Thunderbird that also works for TB 68 and higher.
You need to locate your messagenotesplus.sqlite in the TB profile folder to extract the notes. I can add technical details of the conversion if someone is interested.

Very useful Add-on, sad it does not work any more. Can we do something to motivate you to update it for new Thunderbird?

Remove Duplicate Messages

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

by ths on Sept. 28, 2010 ·

You did a great job - thanks! The add-on works just fine and very quick for my some hundred mails.

Yet it took me some time to find out (by reading other comments) that I need to remove the checkmark on "skip special folders". Before I did that I tried hard to remove duplicates on my imap account (using special folders) with no success and also no message from the add-on except "Looking for duplicates".
I would prefer that you choose the default as "skip special folders" = NO.

By the way the German translation lacks some strings in "...extensions\{a300a000-5e21-4ee0-a115-9ec8f4eaa92b}\chrome\removedupes.jar\locale\de-DE\removedupes\removedupes-prefs.dtd"

<!ENTITY message_comparison.time_comparison_resolution.description "Vergleich von Zeiten mit:">
<!ENTITY message_comparison.time_comparison_resolution.seconds.label "Sekunden">
<!ENTITY message_comparison.time_comparison_resolution.minutes.label "Minuten">
<!ENTITY message_comparison.time_comparison_resolution.hours.label "Stunden">
<!ENTITY message_comparison.time_comparison_resolution.day.label "Tagen">
<!ENTITY message_comparison.time_comparison_resolution.month.label "Monaten">
<!ENTITY message_comparison.time_comparison_resolution.year.label "Jahren">

Without them the settings dialog will fail.
There are also some other strings in the file that are not yet translated to German, but still English.

Thank you for your work.
-thomas.
