My Reviews

Compact Headers

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Not working for v115. It seems to have no effect at all, the many headers are still one per row. Alt+D opens the File menu here (German UI).

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (5.1). 

Mailbox Alert

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Works largely well, but I keep getting notifications for messages I delete from my inbox, no matter what options I set for the account, the inbox folder and the trash folder. That's a bit annoying really. Also, the notifications are delayed by 2 seconds after a message appears in the folder view. Why that? No option to change that.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.16.4). 

PrefBar

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Good for quickly change the page language (Accept-Language header) to test the translation of web sites. Nice extensible platform, well done!

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (6.4.0.1-signed.1-signed). 

Thunderbird Conversations

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

It messes up my entire folder view. I couldn't finy my folders anymore, everything was hidden in some grouping tree, sorted by folder name, then account (the wrong way). Then the conversation integration is only halfway. There's a message tree as usual at the top (which does not include my sent mail, which is what I hoped to see), but a totally different message view at the bottom. It just doesn't fit. And it feels slow. ATTENTION: Make a backup of your entire data before trying this! It will not revert the settings it made on installation, even if it says it will. I'm now restoring my folder views, columns selection and so on. This alone qualifies for a zero-star rating.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.3.2). 

Disable Add-on Compatibility Checks

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Very nice, thank you. I've found a lot of news telling that the version check should be disabled since Firefox 10, but that doesn't seem to be the case. A lot of add-ons were incompatible with the silently installed Firefox 11 today, so this add-on came to my rescue.

Firefox Classic

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Nice idea, but it does not restore the navigation buttons back and forward from Firefox 2, which is what I had most hoped to find.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.3).
