QuickFolders (Tabbed Folders)

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

QuickFolders Free & Pro rate PLUS 5-Stars!

The only major shortcoming of Thunderbird and PostBox is the inability to easily organize and manage a large collection of folders. That's where QuickFolders comes into play.

QuickFolders offers a easy, quick, and sensible way to organize and manage folders. It is a lightweight, unobtrusive, and stable extension. Also, it comes with other several useful features. Additionally, the Developer quickly answers all support requests and goes the extra distance to deliver great customer service.

The FREE version is adequate. But the extra features in the Pro version are well worth the small cost of $15. Plus, that $15 helps to keep the developer in business and updating QuickFolders. I urge all to buy the Pro version.

THERE IS ONE SMALL CATCH WITH THE PRO VERSION'S LICENSE for those who use multiple email clients on the same PC...but there is an easy fix. I will explain.

The Pro license is 'assigned' to one specific email address...which is the email used when purchasing the license. That licensing method can cause an issue when using multiple email clients. Here's how.

The QuickFolders extension works in both Thunderbird and PostBox. (Postbox is Thunderbird optimized for Gmail.) BUT the Pro License will register to only one of the two email clients. Thus, a second Pro license is required to get Pro to work in both email clients.

(I use Thunderbird strictly for my Microsoft email accounts. Then I use PostBox for my gmail accounts.)

I BOUGHT THE PRO LICENSE UNDER MY GMAIL ADDRESS. Therefore, I can only use the Pro License in an email client 'hosting' that gmail address, which is PostBox. CONSEQUENTLY, I can NOT use the Pro License in Thunderbird (because I don't do gmail in Thunderbird).

The Pro Licensing System requires buying multiple Pro licenses when using different email clients installed on the SAME PC. But there is an easy fix.

If you find yourself in the predicament described above, email the developer Axel Grude and tell him. Then the Developer will fix things so that the purchase of one Pro license will register QuickFolders Pro in all email clients on the same PC.

Phew-w-w!

ProfileSwitcher

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Profile Switcher is working perfectly fine in FF ver 46. Very wonderful means to quickly switch between FF profiles.
