The collapse feature will be incorporated in my "Quote Colors" extension from up Version 3.0a6:
https://addons.thunderbird.net/de/thunderbird/addon/quotecolors/

Development is reported here:

This is invaluable if you follow newsgoups on Thunderbird were the quote levels and bottom quoting conspire to create long trips to the new content. This should be built in to Thunderbird, of course.

Please update for TB78 :)

Thanks for the positive feedback.

QC 2.0 used an intermediate API to make it work with TB6x. TB78 dropped that API ("legacy webextension") while the new API ("mailextension") lacks important features (such as content scripts for mail display panes) which will not land before TB82. So for TB78-TB82, we have to use yet another new intermediate API ("experimental API") knowing it might be gone soon, too. I cannot promise for that new rewrite to appear soon, unfortunately.

Fonctionne avec la dernière version 68.2.2

Hi Michael,

I found no easy way to reply to your reply on my previous review. thanks for your fast reply on it.
I'm not sure if there are any plans in thunderbird itself to improve handling of html quotes, and indeed if i hit reply on an html email with html quotes it ignores them.
However, if i choose view as plain-text, thunderbird seems to know to convert the quotes correctly (and then quotecollapse does recognize them).
So I guess the question is if there is any way to correlate the two, not forcing to change to view as plaintext, but still use that capability to detect the quotes.

Thanks,
Itamar

Toggle Quotes adds a toolbar button and a shortcut key to QuoteCollapse.

This does not appear to be a review of QuoteCollapse.
I don't mind linking to that add-on-add-on from the description or even integrating functionality.

This project appears to have been dead for some time now. The mailing list no longer exists, and the archives stopped abruptly in Jan 2012 (http://www.mozdev.org/pipermail/quotecollapse).

It works great, as far as it goes, and it can even be extended to include a very-helpful keybinding to toggle behavior by hacking via keyconfig as suggested here: http://quotecollapse.mozdev.org/customising.html. But the Style hacks are no longer applicable with current versions of Thunderbird, and since the community is dead I suppose we can't expect any updates such as properly integrated keybindings or customizations. What it is is what you get (unless somebody picks up the source and carries this on to completion).

It's annoying that it collapses all quotes completely - it should be tunable for context. But it's better than nothing particularly in long discussions with people who use inline comments or bottom posting without trimming any content.

I would like to like this extension, it's very close to what I need but it fails on a couple of critical issues that I suspect would be easy to fix.

1) When a quote is collapsed there is not enough context to understand what the replier is referring to. There is only one line of context. Often the 1 line of context is either empty, or has something meaningless in it such as "Bob said:" or "I disagree". Then I'm left wondering Bob said what? Or what did they disagree with? This forces me to manually expand the collapsed quote which is problematic for a few reasons. I have to use the mouse to click on a tiny + button which is awkward, it may expand into a large quantity of text which scrolls off the screen and which I don't need to fully re-read in order to recall the conversation, I just need a few more lines of context. In fact I find I have to expand the last quote so often the value of collapsing prior quotes is dubious. Plus the keyboard shortcuts aren't the most friendly so I end up using the mouse.

2) There is no user preferences. I'd really like to be able configure such things as the number of context lines, what level of quoting expand/collapse when a message is initially displayed, define my own keyboard shortcuts, etc.

It's so close to being really useful, but each time I try it I end up disabling it because it often requires more interaction from me while reading email than when it's disabled.

I like this add-on. It did the hard work of adding a very useful feature to Thunderbird to hide quotes. There is still a little more work to be done in terms of preferences and keyboard shortcuts as some of the other reviewers have suggested.

Here is some code that can be used with the keyconfig addon to add a keyboard shortcut to toggle expanding and collapsing all quotations in a message.

tree = QuoteCollapse._messagePane.contentDocument.getElementsByTagName("blockquote");

if (tree.item(0).getAttribute("qctoggled") == "true") {
QuoteCollapse._setTree(QuoteCollapse._messagePane.contentDocument, 0);
}
else {
QuoteCollapse._setTree(QuoteCollapse._messagePane.contentDocument, 1);
}

If you want separate commands for expanding and collapsing, just use

QuoteCollapse._setTree(QuoteCollapse._messagePane.contentDocument, 1);

to expand all and

QuoteCollapse._setTree(QuoteCollapse._messagePane.contentDocument, 0);

to collapse all.

Holding down CTRL or CTRL+SHIFT does nothing.
Instead of "holding down CTRL SHIFT" to collapse/expand all, maybe a hotkey like "E" and "C" would be better.

This addon would rule if it weren't for that. Since I don't have a mouse most of this time, the fact that the hotkey doesn't work makes it unusable, and I need to actually disable it (since there is no workaround either).

Also, double clicking on any part of the line of the quoted text to expand it might work too. (Even with a mouse, I have a very hard time aiming at the tiny "+" icon)

@syman: Can you please explain how you got version 0.8 to work with TB 2.0.0.23? I run the same version, set extension.checkCompatibility to false in about:config but it is still telling me the version 0.8 is not compatible. Please elaborate as it is a great add-on.

Very useful addon.

@madmaxbt00 Version 0.8 works fine with TB 2.0.0.23 when you disable the compatibility check. This can be done at installation time and in the addon-list via context menu. I am using this combination, too.

could not live w/o it. In my work it is common to have ten people reply to a message quoting all or part of it, now I get the important parts in a second instead of scrolling through pages of stuff

I am having the same problem as Mr_Nick. I am using Thunderbird version 2.0.0.23 and get the following error when installing QuoteCollapse version 0.7:
"QuoteCollapse 0.7 could not be installed because it is not compatible with Thunderbird 2.0.0.23. (QuoteCollapse 0.7 will only work with Thunderbird versions from 0.7 to 1.5.0.*)"
I have tried other versions of QuoteCollapse to no avail.

If you're a power newsgroup reader, this addon is quite handy and will help you read a lot more messages in a lot less time. As a suggestion, it would be nice if it included the option to add a space between the collapsed text and the message text since some posters are sloppy in their posting.

Making quotecollapse work on thunderbird 2.0.0 (ubuntu 9.10 as of today - 12/19/2009)
git clone http://repo.or.cz/r/QuoteCollapse.git
cd QuoteCollapse
git checkout -b 0.7 4876dd9
git checkout -b thunder-2.0-hack
save the following patch
http://pastebin.mozilla.org/?dl=691740
git am patch
cd src
zip -r quotecollapse-0.7-mod.xpi install.* chrome*

and then use the quotecollapse-0.7-mod.xpi for thunderbird

For those interested in a quick download, here it is:
