- TristanTee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Some other TB extensions I find useful:
MinimizeToTray (Minimizes Mozilla windows into the system tray)
Allow Empty Subject (Disables the warning dialog when you send a message without a subject)
Toolbar Buttons (Adds extra toolbar buttons)
Unselect Message (Prevents that another message is selected after move or delete)
Xpunge (Empties the Trash folder and compacts folders in multiple email accounts) - holotone, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Mail Redirect is absolutely invaluable for any IT support folk. Clients sending to your personal mailbox? Transparently redirect!

- wunch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3My favorite thing I did to Thunderbird wasn't even an extension, and was the only thing I missed from Outlook:
View -> Sort by -> Date.
View -> Sort by -> Grouped by Sort. (or just press G) - hybridcreation, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3No, you're not following me.
Gmail does such a good job of filtering spam that it never makes it into my inbox for Thunderbird to have to deal with. - mikoyski, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Another cool Extension: Attachment Extractor! Select your messages with attachments, right click, save all attachments to specified folder, boom! All your porn pics are saved! Can't live without it. =)
Here's the link to the extension:https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/556/ - dbr_onix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Can't sites that are repeatedly spammed be blacklisted from comments? I suppose then people start using things like tinyurl.. *Sighs*

And I thought hexagram's joke was bad... - hybridcreation, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Love Thunderbird...been using it as long as I've been using Firefox.
Not too big on extensions for it though. Even the built-in spam filter is not of much use since Gmail does such a good job. I love the contacts sidebar, though...should be a standard feature. - vurdalak, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2And my favorites:
- Signature Switch (http://mozext.achimonline.de/signatureswitch_about.php)
- Buttons! (http://www.chuonthis.com/extensions/buttons.php) I've added "Labels" as dropdownbox on toolbar in TB 1.5 - extremely useful
- Compact Folder Button (http://compactfolder.mozdev.org/) - don't forget to compact your folders never again
- Mark All Read Button (http://www.linnhe.net/thunderbird/extensions.html) - use it in news groups w/o enter the folder - sremick, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Yay for Thunderbird. I actually didn't find his list all that useful. QuoteCollapse is the only useful one for me on that list and I already had it. Here are my TB extensions:
Quote Colors
QuoteCollapse
Sync On Arrival
Unselect Message
Update Notifier
Allow Empty Subject
DictionarySearch
Display Quota
Display Mail User Agent
Image Zoom
Header Scroll
NestedQuote Remover
Lightning - emer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Anyone doing IT support in an unmanaged environment (eg,colleges) might appreciate "display mail user agent". It displays with an icon, what mail client the sender used for every message you receive.
https://addons.mozilla.org/thunderbird/562/ - dotancohen, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1The ability to scroll with the keyboard should be built into TB.
- Promantarius, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Is there an extension that allows you to open Thunderbird RSS pages using Firefox's rendering engine? I know they're fairly similar programs, but last time I checked Thunderbird didn't allow you to navigate through websites that were located through RSS feeds.
I ditched Thunderbird for GMail and Newsfox ( http://newsfox.mozdev.org/ ), within which you can navigate RSS stories in a window divided into three frames; one for categories, one for the stories within, and another for the actual content. Since the sites open in a frame, you're able to navigate through them perfectly using saved usernames/passwords, cookies and javascript. If Thunderbird were to support those in the future it might be useful again as an RSS reader but at the moment I'm not holding a lot of hope, so I'm wondering if there's any extensions that can replicate this?
Thunderbird is great for free email software especially considering the majority of the others that are around, but for personal use at least I'm finding GMail to be more useful. Perhaps they should pre-empt Microsoft and redesign the user interface to be more useful, perhaps in a similar way to Office 2007 (if that's legal, considering patents and such.) Just doesn't seem compelling for personal use. - mrsmong, on 10/12/2007, -4/+5Agreed. Very cool extension.
- artgon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1In Outlook there is flagging into a "For Follow Up" folder that keeps of tasks to do. Anyone know if there is something similar for TBird?
- uncoolcentral, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1My *only* problem w/ TB is the huge cache/memory usage after leaving it open for hours at a time. Not a big enough problem to make me give it up though! Remove Duplicate Messages is my be-all end-all extension. Couldn't live w/ out it - or at least wouldn't want to.
- lukeslytalker, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Good deal. Thanks
- Randazzo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1The spam filter is the best part of Thunderbird. Who cares about gmail. I would much rather my desktop app flter my mail as opposed to a web based company.
- rantingraj, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Wow!! Thanx for the education!!
- sroske, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2I am not impressed with gmail. I use it because it works as an excellent collaorative tool, but as a mail manager it has much to be desired. For example, the way gmail folds multiple messages into cascades of conversations, while interesting, is not much help for when I have sent out a message to a group with a requests for files, images, bios and descriptions. To sort through the cascade is unpleasant.
I know I need to set up lables and things, but the time it is going to take to do all that...
Also, gmail is often simply not working. I'll keep using it, since the calendar is very useful for collaboration and it comes with an account, but I'm having user pains. - johnkalel, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1diggdude12 is showing some worrying symptoms. Spores from an obnoxious fungus called moronicus ruinthewebbus has infiltrated its body and its alleged mind. Its infected brain directs this pawn to the Web. Then, utterly without regard to any one else, it grips its mouse and keyboard with its sweaty mitts...
He needs to be taken quickly away and dumped. It seems extreme, but...

- pcgeek101, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1These are some cool extensions, but Outlook works a lot better and doesn't have some of the quirkiness that Thunderbird does.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -6/+2gtfo you dirty seo bastard :)
- PleaseJustDie, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1Scanned the headline not really paying attention, I somehow just read "8 Killer Birds" before my must click now syndrome made the page disappear. Now I'm dissapointed, oh well.
