I've been using this wonderful add-on until I upgraded Thunderbird above version 3.01. I'm surprised that it was not included in Thunderbird, as it makes save a precious time when we use the fonctionnality of downloading only headers of the messages.Now, I'm testing it on a 3.0.6 version, it seems to work fine.

(tip: for installing it, I needed to overcome the error message which says that this plugins was not built for versions above 3.01. For doing this, I only had to edit the file "install.rdf" which is located in the add-on archive. There is a line:
<em:maxVersion>3.0a1</em:maxVersion>that I changed to:
<em:maxVersion>4.0a1</em:maxVersion>

That allowed me to install the plugin without any error message. Then, I downloaded a couple of messages whithout any problem)

Warning: this kind of modification is well know for using old plugins, but in some cases and for some plugins, it may lead Thunderbird to crash. Use it carrefully!
