FireFTP

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I love this addon! I have been using it for a while, but my host has recently requested that we start using 'Explicit FTP over TLS'. I can get connected just fine in FileZilla, but none of the secure settings in FireFTP work for me. Is this feature not supported, or am I missing something?

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.99.3.1-signed). 

Country Lookup

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

This utility doesn't lookup the original sender's location, only the mail server's country.

For example (real example) - you receive email from typical Nigerian scam artist saying how rich he is and he needs your help to recover his money, blah, blah, blah.

This addon shows that his email address (in this case a yahoo.com address) is in the US. Of course yahoo.com is in the US ... it doesn't show the 'origin' of the sender in Africa like it claims to do though.

In this particular example you still need to lookup the final 'received from' field in the header for the originating IP (for this example it is 196.207.9.59, which is the actual sender's IP and that resolves to Nigeria - see here: loookup.com/196.207.9.59 - not a typo, 3 o's).

I am no coder so I have no idea how difficult it would be to implement actually looking up the country of 'origin' rather than the mx server's country.

3 stars because it is "nifty", -2 stars because it looks up the wrong information every time.

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