MailExtensions Add-ons (Thunderbird 78 support)

I start to convert my legacy add-ons into MailExtensions ones to support forthcoming Thunderbird 78, where legacy add-ons will not be supported anymore.

Currently, the followings are available:
 
All add-ons work only with Thunderbird 78.0 and up.

Regarding Maximize Message Pane, only one toolbar button is available. It is due to the limitation of MailExtensions specification.

Thus, you need to choose one of the following as toolbar button command:
  • Maximize message pane (default)
  • Toggle folder pane
  • Toggle message pane

I know it is degradation from legacy one but I don't have any solution other than waiting for API implementation by Thunderbird team. As workarounds for that, you can use keyboard shortcuts and splitter/message header to toggle panes. Please check the MMP's option.

Add-ons above are uploaded to addons.thunderbird.net site and waiting for approval.

Priority Switcher 2.0.0 is released. All add-ons support Thunderbird 78 now!

Tag Toolbar 1.0.2

Tag Toolbar 1.0.2 is now available for download.

In this version, text color of the thread pane is configurable as older one for Thunderbird 60 did.

You can change setting by Tag Toolbar option.

Download:

Tag colors:
Text color becomes tag color. In case the text is difficult to read due to background color, it becomes white automatically.


Black/White:
Text color becomes black or white considering background color.


Complementary colors:
Text color becomes complementary one of tag color.


Converting add-ons for Thunderbird 68

All add-ons for older Thunderbird, like 60.x, are not supported in Thunderbird 68.
These need to be converted. 
About 7 months has been past since Thunderbird 68 but some add-ons are still not updated.

So, I've received some questions how to update these add-ons in my Japanese blog.
During the discussion, the following add-ons were created.
I write this post to share them with other users in the world.

Please note it is unofficial modification. You should not contact to the original auther about it.
Plus, some functionality may not work as intended since I don't know much about these add-ons.


Please feel free to use them if you need.
