linux.com — As with Firefox, you can extend Thunderbird's functionality by installing extensions. Mozilla's official extension repository has quite a few nifty tools on offer, and which ones you choose to install depends entirely on your needs. There are, however, a few extensions that you might find indispensable no matter how you use Thunderbird.

Personally I do answer the same (or similar) questions in emails over and over again, so I cannot live without QuickText ( <a class="user" href="http://extensions.hesslow.se">http://extensions.hesslow.se</a> ). Saves a lot of time.

Is there a plugin to get Thunderbird to play media inline? If I get a .wav attachment, have quicktime or something play it without detaching it and launching manually? My voice mail from Vonage is e-mailed to me and it seems like the process to listen to it could be 2 steps shorter.

The filters are still there, they're just not into the toolbar by default. Right click toolbar, cuztomize, then grab the "Views" item into your toolbar.Regarding IMAP's delays, that's your provider. I run several corporate and personal IMAP servers on various servers and it's extremely fast and reliable.To quickly delete all your spam, hit CTRL-A then delete. It's about the same as right clicking the trash and clicking "empty".

I'd only really ever use one of them.... but a good list non the less. Does anyone know of an extension that drops the quoted text on an email reply to the bottom? I hate how it puts your cursor after the quoted text by default.

No, it's not the same, because it moves them all into the trash folder, one at a time. Slow, and then you have to go empty the trash. There needs to be a new "delete now" option on the context menu to bypass moving to the trash.
