QuickFolders (Tabbed Folders)

Love it. Makes the Thunderbird UI jitter a bit when it starts up.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (6.6.1). 

Edit Email Subject (EES)

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Does Not Work for me at all.

Thunderbird 115.12.2 (SuperNova up-to-date) on Windows 11 Pro.

Account is IMAP.

I tried with "Back up email into local folder..." checked and not checked.

I get a "busy" icon, followed briefly by a big red Circle with a white "X" in it, then nothing.

Restart Button

115+ (SuperNova) I have to disable and re-enable the extension for the button to show up

Excellent! I've been hacking the UI a lot. This is essential to me.

I've used it to get rid of the Windows-supplied title bar and have added my own to several of the Thunderbird Windows &amp;amp; Dialogs, like how tabs-in-titlebar (Advanced Preferences: "browser.tabs.inTitlebar" (oops! Is that "mail.tabs.drawInTitlebar" instead???), <body> tag attribute "tabsintitlebar") work in the main Window.

Enhancement Idea:
- add more Window/Dialog types - I hacked this extension to add filterListDialog and FilterEditor. Perhaps more coming.

Identity Chooser

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Identity Chooser is an absolute "Life Saver" for me! I own my own domain, and I have lots and lots of different email addresses using that domain. This helps me keep that all sorted.

Suggestions:
1. auto-sort alphabetically (by email address or by name?)
2. Apply the sort order to Thunderbird's Identity Manager.

AND

3. Add the ability to search for an email address in the chooser!

Enhanced Priority Display

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

It was great while it lasted. I can see the developers have made it difficult (impossible) to port this for Thunderbird 115+ "SuperNova".

I have written some CSS for my userChrome.css to at least change the priority text to icons, but selecting in the CSS what priority a message has is problematic.

There is no explicit HTML Tag Attribute in the HTML/XUL for the message thread list that indicates the priority anymore. Each row in the message thread does have an attribute named "data-properties" ***NO, the attribute is "aria-label" *** (sorry!) attached to it, and that attribute does have the name of the priority in it. But this attribute also has the message subject in it, and the message subject could easily have the same words in it. And are the priority names LOCALIZED for language/region??? So searching for the priority in this attribute is not fool-proof.

I have submitted a bug report (enhancement request) explaining this (Bugzilla Bug #1884544)

Quote Colors & Collapse

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Works great! Many thanks!

Suggestions:
- Allow user to override indents for quote levels
- Allow user to override text color for quote text (not just background)
- Allow user to set borders around quotes levels - Color, Thickness

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (4.2.1). 

Identity Chooser

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Just what I was looking for. When replying to or forwarding a message, it would be great if there were an option to just default to the email for the the identity the same as the "To" email address instead of being forced to choose.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (4.1). 

Toggle Headers

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This makes it so much easier to switch between full headers and limited headers, BUT it would be so much better if that switch would only affect the CURRENT MESSAGE. When I switch to look at a message with Full Headers, that setting continues for any messages I look at from then on, and I have to switch Full Headers off again. That's such a pain, especially if you go to PRINT or FORWARD, etc one of those messages and the Full Headers that you don't want are there. I suspect this add-on merely flips the Thunderbird general setting. A pity.

Enhanced Priority Display

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I really like this. Especially the striped backgrounds. Sometimes it just quits working, then it starts working again. Very strange.

Enhanced Priority Display

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This is brilliant! The transparency striped background colors for the rows with prioritized messages allow my customized background colors per-tag (userChrome.css) and these priority background colors BOTH to be seen. And the icons in the Priority columns take much less space. In fact, with the row background colors, the Priority column is not really necessary at all.

Menu On Top (SuperMenu Avatar)

Can we get a version that's compatible with FF 61.0.1 ???
