Installed this add-on into Thundebird 24.6.0 on Windows 7 x64 and Ubuntu 14.04 x64 and both times, this add-on didn't seem to make any difference.

Has anyone been able to get this to work on this version of Thunderbird, or been able to find contact details of the author of this plugin for more information?

The functionality that this add-on would provide sounds really good so it's a shame that it doesn't seem to be doing anything.

EDIT: Thanks for your reply.

After posting on MozillaZine forums, someone there has posted the answer which explains why it wasn't working here: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?p=13673633#p13673633.

I have three suggestions for improvement (I am sure your time for working on this is limited so I understand it may take some time):
1. Update the add-on so that the autocorrect.wordsfile preference is created automatically
2. Ability to easily add extra autocorrects from the context menu (i.e. so when you select a spelling suggestion from the menu, there should be an option along the lines of "correct this spelling mistake in the future", perhaps this should be as a separate submenu underneath the existing spelling corrections that says "Autocorrect to" -> and then repeat the list of spelling suggestions.
I'm sure the existing auto-correct list could be improved collaboratively so if all the users of this extension were able to share their own autocorrect lists it would be even more useful.
3. As others have pointed out, the fact that auto-correct doesn't work in the first sentence is a little annoying, though not really too big a fault overall.
