Brakes the Add-On "Sender Name" :-(
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.2).Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Slows down the deletion of mails & RSS feeds dremendously (when pressing the DEL-key repeatedly - lets say 20 times - in order to delete 20 rss feeds from the thread pane).
After deactivating the Add-On, everything works normal/fast again.
This problem is fixed in Version 3.3 which works with Thunderbird 3.1.

What I also found out is, that if you add a Lable to a specific e-mail (e. g label "private"), then normally after selecting that e-mail in the treadpane its whole line is highlighted with the color of its label (e. g. red).
However with account colors installed, the labled e-mail (line) in the thread pane is always blue when selected (as any other e-mail).
This is resolved in Version 3.3 which works with Thunderbird 3.1.

Please have a look at the Thunderbird error console. There are hundrets of entries for "account colors". This might also be the reason why account colors is sometimes not working correctly after a restart of Thunderbird, so that the Add-On's settings must be set again.
Example:
Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "'[JavaScript Error: "too much recursion" {file: "chrome://accountcolors/content/ac-3panewindow.js" line: 371}]' when calling method: [nsIMsgCustomColumnHandler::getRowProperties]" nsresult: "0x80570021 (NS_ERROR_XPC_JAVASCRIPT_ERROR_WITH_DETAILS)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://accountcolors/content/ac-3panewindow.js :: anonymous :: line 371" data: yes]
This is probably caused by interaction with another add-on that uses the custom column handler interface. Please can you tell me which other add-ons you are using.

A mi me gusto mucho este complemento.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.1).Rated 4 out of 5 stars
- Unfortunately version 3.0 does not provide an option to color "RSS-News & Weblogs" anymore.
Please have a look at this.
- Would also be nice if the user would be allowed to choose font sizes lower than 12
Release 3.1 fixes these problems. Both Blogs & Newsfeeds accounts and Newsgroup accounts can be colored and styled. Font sizes 10 & 11 have been added to folder/thread/message panes and compose window.

I would really like to have these features. I am now using Windows 7 64bit and TB3. When I open the Options window the items displayed are somewhat scrambled. I have managed to set the color for one account... but it is not implemented. I look forward to a version that works in this environment.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.0).The problem you are experiencing is caused by the Options dialog window being too tall to fit on a lower resolution screen. Release 3.0 fixes this and is compatible with Windows 7 64-bit.

Hi, I really like this plugin but I have a little trouble here.
I use TB3. I have about 20 email accounts, I have problem when I open the Account Colors Options. The option menu window does not afford to modify all the accounts, the later accounts intersect each others.

Excellent extension. I'm glad it now supports TB3!
The only thing I'd add is an option to color the compose mail window based on identity rather than account. You may be sending mail using various identities from the same account and it would be helpful to have a visual indication of which identity has been selected. I currently use the Border Color extension for this purpose. That is also a very nice extension, but somewhat redundant with this one so if this one supported color by identity there would be no need to have both extensions installed.
Release 3.0 provides support for coloring by identities as well as accounts.
