For me, it works only with emails I answer within thunderbird. The Emails that I answer from my android phone using the gmail app are not included in the threads. In this sense, I cannot rely on it that I always see the entire conversation!
Hi, unfortunately this sounds like an issue with Thunderbird itself, rather than with Conversations.
The Conversations add-on relies on Thunderbird to provide the threading/conversation information, so if it isn't working it is most likely a Thunderbird issue.
I suspect in this case, Thunderbird hasn't "seen" the emails in the sent folder that Android has added, and therefore hasn't indexed them.
I suggest you file a bug at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ and report it to the team. Hopefully they can solve it.

Bonne extension mais elle empêche d'ouvrir certains pdf et de les visualiser. On peut seulement les enregistrer, c'est pénible...
Hi, this appears that it might be a problem caused by Thunderbird itself, which we are currently looking into.

Good extension, very helpful.
But attachments problem must be solved.
Every time with new TB updates — almost all attachments are not showed at all, and i never know how to fix it.

Well, not a big user of thread views.
It looks like working like it should.
But could you explain me where to find the atatched files in the email ?
Attached files are shown underneath the body of the message.

L'extension Thunderbird conversation empêche d'ouvrir un message dans une nouvelle fenêtre. Si je désinstalle l'extension, ça remarche.
C'est dommage parce que cette extension est très bien.

Would be perfect if it there were support for dark mode or compatibility with addons such as Dark Reader.

Please add Dark Mode or "Dark Reader" add-on compatibility...
Great add-on, thank you!

Hello. Please add the option to display the message in dark mode.

The conversation view looks great. It's a pity that when Dark Reader is also installed, Dark Reader doesn't work and the emails remain in the original theme.
The author is aware of this issue and there is a GitHub bug open since 2021 (https://github.com/thunderbird-conversations/thunderbird-conversations/issues/1609). But it seems that the bug is created by Thunderbird and not this extension. So it may still take longer to happen.

Overall, an essential plugin. However, it seems to conflict with the Auto Profile Pictures / Auto Avatars plugins, causing conversation views to show up as blank white pages. It would be really great if both extensions could work together!
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (4.2.2).I can't reproduce the blank white pages, everything works fine here. Please report at https://github.com/thunderbird-conversations/thunderbird-conversations/issues if you are still having issues.
There are issues in the thread pane where the icons go away when a conversations message is selected, however that appears to be an issue with Auto Profile Pictures itself.

Just awesome. Some paid mail clients do not have such a killer feature !

Hi like the conversation add on but it would be even better if you made it compatible to Cardbook.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (4.2.1).Conversations uses Thunderbird's standard APIs to interact with the address book.
Unfortunately, despite a few suggestions and discussions, the Cardbook author refuses to make their add-on compatible with those APIs. This breaks their integration with various other add-ons, not just Conversations.
Whilst Conversations itself is not perfect in the support of add-ons due to the way it changes the message pane, it is doing its best to support the standard APIs.
I'd rather spend time on making Conversations better support those standard APIs, rather than having to write and support custom code specifically for Cardbook.
If Cardbook wants to do its own thing, then it needs to find a way support Thunderbird's standard APIs.
So please report this to the Cardbook author, as far as I'm concerned, making it compatible is Cardbook's responsibility.

I have always wanted to have this functionality and now I do thanks to your addon. Having the "Gmail" style view in Thunderbird now makes it the perfect email client.

Functionality is amazing, much needed feature for Thunderbird; just one problem. This add-on is incompatible with dark mode add-ons, so I suggest a dark mode toggle is added to it.

Brilliant add-on.

I love this addon.
I think some time ago when clicking on the attachment icon, it will go to the attachment list immediately. But now it roll up the whole email.
Is it possible to have the attachment list on top of the email window (I think the old version had this) or jump to the attachment by clicking on the icon?
Thanks.

Non funziona con la casella di mail PEC. Impedisce di visualizzare gli allegati.

Don't work with Thunderbird dark mode. Discussion on Github suggests that author refuses to see that as an issue
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (4.1.7).This review is incorrect and does not represent the discussions on Github.
I, the author, do recognise that this is an important issue for some proportion of people. However, as I have already mentioned on Github multiple times, I do not have much spare time to work on the add-on.
The time I do work on it, is generally on maintenance and doing the best I can to keep the add-on functioning.
Working on additional features such as dark mode support is potentially possible, but then I'll probably end being a year or so behind supporting the latest Thunderbird, e.g. I've still not got support for signed/encrypted emails working again in 115.

Overall very good! But I would like to see an option to put most recent message on the top.
