Great extension except for one thing - I would like the ability to turn the functionality on and off *without* needing to disable the extension. This existed in prior versions if I am not mistaken...

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.0.8).

This is imho one of the add-ons which helps me in managing my e-mail far more efficient. Although it stil needs some work, because sometimes messages are excluded from a conversation, were the gmail web-interface does differently. Just a matter of time I guess.

Great add-on , but I hope there is an option for user to choose when I reply the mail. The position is start at the start of the whole mail , or in the end of mail.
In GMail , when I click the reply zone , the text will stay at the start of the mail , I hope I can have the same function in Thunderbirds Conversations.

I just noticed that this extension replaces a few other addons that I now no longer need, such as Slideshow and Compact Header. Great!

I find that it's buggy. For example, drafts sometimes show up as having been erroneously sent, which is really frightening when writing a business email.

Also, I don't particularly like the display because I end up with too many scroll bars on the right side. Very cluttered.

Overall, I think this is one worth watching because it could potentially be really awesome. But I don't think it's quite ready yet.

Great addon, but threads that were initiated by me are missing initial message.

It does not group very well, for me.
I have threads with the same subject with 2 people going back and forth, and they do not get grouped.

Good extension.
But if the mail hasn't finished loading and you click on a hyperlink inside, the link will open in thunderbird as a new tab instead of the standard browser.

I love the idea that Thunderbird will now mimic exactly what I love about Gmail. But this update in Thunderbird has too "loose" a definition of a conversation. It links emails that are not related except for the fact that they seem to deal with budget issues, even if they have completely unique subjects. And when every email I send regarding payments is considered a single conversation, regardless of subject or recipients, it makes this add-on worthless to me. Sadly, I have removed it.

Ein Super Add-on. Wird automatisch in meine Sprache umgesetzt und ist einfach zu bedienen. Erleichtert die Arbeit mit Thunderbird und den E-Mails ungemein.

It is great. And I would like to take you one idea - make ability to unite different conversations in one. It would be very useful. Chrome doesn't have it.
Thanks

Quick reply window at the bottom of each message and best of all hover over contact in the message and automatically get a copy email button! Really handy.
