Remove Duplicate Messages

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Decent extension; however the file naming convention could be better.
IE: -0.1.06-tb.xpi
Files that start with a dash is a special character in the Unix world. Removing files with that character can cause problems for new users.

To all Nix users to remove such a file (after installation) you can do:

rm ./-0.1.06-tb.xpi

Hope that helps some one.
3 starts because of non standard file naming convention; which cause new users issues when trying to remove the file.

Illimitux

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Sorry, but when does Illimitux, or even Adblock Plus harm a PC?^^ Adblock Plus never had any conflict with any protection/firewall-programs. Oh man, I would say that the cause of your PC-problem must be something else. I have to say that both addons do not cause any problems on my PC.
I give Illimitux 4 of 5 because it does not work every time, but most of the time and it gets updated. So in my opinion it is a highly recommended addon.

Nautipolis for Thunderbird

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This is my one and only theme; I love it. I have only one small request.

Can you make the Lightening Calendar icons smaller when:
Right clicking --> Customise --> Use Small Icons.

Hopefully the size of the icons for "Mail, Calendar, Task" will be the same height as the "Get mail, Write, Reply, etc" buttons.

Just a thought; great theme.

ReminderFox

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Lets say, a Quick alarm is set. when the alert of it comes, focus is set by default to Ok button. But in earlier versions, it was on snooze button. That time i just use to press enter key button inorder to snooze it. But in this version, focus is set to Ok button so inorder to snooze it i have to use my mouse each & everytime i wish to snooze it.

App Tabs

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

but i think it is a great addon!! keep doing stuff like this :)

Firefox Throttle

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Some feedback on Firefox Throttle...

It could benefit from an option to start up in "Show traffic counters" mode instead of always "Show Rates" - I prefer seeing what amount I've pushed/pulled during a session than throughput rate most of the time. I've tweaked this manually by setting "this.showTraffic = true" in ffthrottleOverlay.js for now.

The little on/off switch icon is difficult to notice when in the off position on a dark theme background (Nasa Night Launch theme). I didn't even notice it was there for a good while as it just looks like an obscure dot.

"Hide throttling status" should at least leave the throttle on/off icon behind. As it stands now apparently it's necessary to delve into Firefox add-on options menu to bring the status display back up.

I think it would be better to allow for the accumulated "Show traffic counters" data to shift to displaying MB values at 1024 KB and above, and GB values at 1024 MB and above. As it stands now you end up with a huge bunch of digits (including a decimal place) if you've transferred a fair amount. Pulling 1.5GB looks like: 1572864.5 KB. Even a MB value would be much better here: 1536.0 MB. We could even drop the decimal, and add digit grouping: 1,536 MB. Or let's just display GB at that height: 1.500 GB.

A configurable short-rate burst value could be useful. It doesn't mean anything as it stands. What does "short rate" represent? Is it time? Data amount? How much of either of these is it, if any? Will it keep the throttle at bay if I pull a 1 meg webpage in 10 seconds?

Option to average the displayed traffic rate over a period of time to help smooth out wild flucuations in the displayed value would help to make the displayed UNTHROTTLED rates more useful. As it is now each GUI update displays wildly fluctuating values like: 8.4 KB/s, 102.3 KB/s, 19.6 KB/s, 42.9 KB/s, 0.5 KB/s... from one second to the next. This tells me the rate is somewhere between 0 and 102 KB/s which is about as useful as drawing a random number from a hat.

The "IPs addresses" menu doesn't make sense to me. If one specifies to NOT throttle 127.0.0.0/8, but has the "Throttle 'localhost' connections" tickbox ticked, then what happens? Is it throttled now or not? It's the same for LAN addresses. Are localhost/lan ranges unlimited by default? I understand the ease of having the tick boxes, but it leads to conflict without some form of clarification displayed.

The "Web Sites/Domains" option confuses me, too. If I manually specify a web site that SHOULD be throttled by adding, eg: "*.microsoft.com", then why does the limiter value still limit everything and not ONLY the *.microsoft domain specified? Isn't it implicit that if one specifies something in particular that should be throttled, that everything else then SHOULDN'T be? It makes no sense to me.

The OK button should probably just save the config. I don't see much point in making modifications that don't persist throughout sessions. No big deal, just more strangeness.

It doesn't remember the throttle on/off button state bewtween restarts.

If I set an incoming bandwidth limit of 32 KBytes/s, and then specify in "Web Sites/Domains" that "domain.com" "should be throttled", then why does the limiter continue to apply to every other non-specified domain, for instance, YouTube.com. Why would YouTube.com continue to be limited when the only thing I've configured Firefox Throttle to do is throttle "domain.com"? What is the point of the "Specify web sites that 'should be throttled.'" option if this doesn't act as an override to a catch-all ("*" or throttle everything) default setting?

I really want to like (and keep) this extension but it leaves me scratching my head. It has promise, it actually looks nicely made, nicely laid out, but too much of its operation is non-sensical to me. It doesn't do what I would logically expect it to do. I need to be able to control exactly how and when it operates, but at the moment it doesn't really do that.

Please don't take this personally, dev, it's just some honest feedback that I hope could help shape it into something better. Thanks for your work. :)

Fire.fm

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Not possible. Last.fm is a radio service. You cannot pause the music, exactly like car radios, etc. .
Btw: The problem with the unrecognised login has gone at my PC. I don't know why, but I'm happy about it :) . Nevertheless this addon deserves naturally 5 from me. Go on with the good work !

Compact Menu 2

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This works for TB3 if you modify the install.rdf file and increase the MAX version for Thunderbird above 3.0

Additional Folder Views

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Been using it for ages under 2, and as a review I would give it 4.5 as the views don't always update properly/automatically.

Anyways, another request to update to TB3 please. :)

I tried modifying the rdf to allow 3, but the window just sits blank.
