Review for Stationery by charles_dexter_ward
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
This add-on is fantastic but in the latest Thunderbird versions a major problem arose.
whether I write a new message or I reply to an existing one:
1) There is no way to add other recipients entries (To, CC, BCC).
2) trying to edit a recipient email address the input box is cleared. There is no way to write in it because the content is automatically erased.
I have the latest Thunderbird release (31.1.0) and these extensions installed:
- Stationery 0.8.4
- ExternalTemplateLoader 0.4.3
- ImportExportTools 3.0.1
- Lighting 3.3
- pasteCode 0.71
- SmartTemplate4 0.9.5.2
- XNote++ 2.2.9
In Stationery options tried to reset all the user interface customizations (except for adding the options entry in the tools menu), but nothing changed: the problem is still there.
At the end I was forced to disable this extension. It is a shame.
######### UPDATE ###############
Okay. I have found the 'problem' which causes the two issues.
Actually the recipients are scrolled up (as the author said) so they disappear apparently (whether I write in to a recipient input box or I add a new recipient). But stretching the height of the header in the message window causes these appear.
> 1) There is no way to add other recipients entries (To, CC, BCC).
Stationery did not change TB behavior in this context, it works for me.
Mail me with details, maybe something went wrong there.

Not erased, but scrolled up, so it become invisible.
Stationery did affect this control a bit, and because of changes in TB my calulations are off by few pixels, causing this effect. It will be fixed in next release.
