Very uncomfortable with this permissions warning upon install. Why would this plugin need such sweeping permissions? Also, as soon as I installed and activated, I noticed FB downloading hundreds of emails from my server, INCLUDING for accounts which I had automatic/periodic mail checking turned off! WHAT is going on!? I removed the plug-in until I get an explanation.

Have full, unrestricted access to Thunderbird, and your computer.

Extensions requesting this permission might:

Change every aspect of Thunderbird’s user interface
Read and modify all your data (messages, contacts, calendars, web content and passwords)
Read, modify and execute any file on your computer

Dear user, your problem with downloads is 100% not because of this addon. Anyways, how would "FB" download anything from Thunderbird? That doesn't make any sense.

For the safety of all users, I've rechecked version 4.0.0 on addons.thunderbird.net if it hasn't been hijacked, and not, it is correct. It is the same version you can find at https://github.com/peci1/more-snooze/releases/tag/v4.0.0 . You can check the source codes yourself. There's 100% no reference to FB in the sources.

The reason why this addon needs such broad permissions is rather technical. It needs to use programming endpoints that are not provided by any of the separate permissions (changing the reminder window items). All addons using these non-standardized endpoints have this "this addon can do anything" permission. It is correct that you are wary of such addons, but More Snooze is not one of the dangerous ones. If you're not a programmer, I unfortunately have no way to prove it to you (except all the other happy users).

In the near future, TB will require all addons to declare whether they collect or share any data. More Snooze will have "nothing, never" in this declaration. It is just a hobby and free time project of mine and a few other guys.
