Don`t install these addon. After uninstall the addon is gone but the folder structure is NOT the same as before the install. Now you have all inboxes of ALL of your mail accounts an the normal accounts are the the botton (all other folders). So they are not together in any email account!!!!!
Really sucks!!!! What can i do now to have the normal folder order after deinstalling this addon???? Hope the coder is reading it here to answer these question!!!!!!
do a backup before you try this piece of $*§$%#
it might be a useful extension, but i can't get used to it.
i read in the introduction (the german translation, but i assume, its the same text in the original language (english?)) and was told, that it will restore your original settings when deinstalling.
well, i did uninstall and guess what happened.
i'm stuck with all the settings i do not need and can't change it back to my settings.
my tb is now a useless piece of software because of this extension.
(i installed the extension again to revert the settings, but guess: no way to do it... of course, the author posts some faq here, and i hope, it will help, but why do i have to do the work, he promised to do? that sucks. really! )
Thanks for sharing this very subtle and considerate comment. This is a problem that I'm aware of and that will be fixed in the next version. In the meanwhile, as I said, there's a FAQ available here https://github.com/protz/GMail-Conversation-View/wiki/faq , see the entry called "folder structure is different". It's actually *three clicks* to restore the former behavior, so I really do hope that you'll be able to restore your Thunderbird to its previous state.
