Translate Mail 0.2.0
av havrlisan
Translate the message you are reading into your language using Google, Microsoft, DeepL, or Yandex. A simple "Translate" button is added to the message top bar.
Om denne utvidelsen
Bring your own API key for one of these providers:
- DeepL - free tier: 500 000 characters/month
- Microsoft Translator - free tier: 2 000 000 characters/month
- Google Cloud Translation - 500 000 characters/month free with billing enabled
- Yandex Translate - trial grant
Privacy
- Message text is sent to the provider you chose only when you click Translate.
- Your API key is stored locally in Thunderbird and sent only to that provider.
- No other servers, no telemetry, no account.
How it works
- Translates only the text; formatting, links, images, and attachments are left untouched.
- Detects the source language automatically; if the message is already in your language, it says so instead of calling the provider.
- The 200 most recent translations are cached locally, so reopening a message costs nothing.
Setup: open the add-on's Preferences, pick a provider, paste the key (plus region for Microsoft, folder ID for Yandex), and choose your target language.
