Otherwise a very good and nice add-on, but if I have multiple accounts with tens of thousands of e-mail then Thunderbird with this add-on gets slower and slower over time.

I really LOVE this esxtension! So far it works very well! However, the extension that integrates with Conversations (Thunderbird Contacts) has been removed and I think it will never be released again. Any chance to add support for another extension like Contact Photos? I've tried it and it works very well... but the photo aren't displayed after installing this extension. It would be wonderful if the developer would add support for Contact Photos...

First of all, thanks for the great work, just love this addon.
After the last TB update there are some issues with the delete button in version 2.9.0. Installing 2.9.1 will fix this! You can find it under Version Information - See complete version history.

Hi, Everything worked very well until the update to the latest version of your module and overnight, I could not read my messages. Only the title of the message was displayed! First I disabled the module to verify that it was indeed at fault, and seeing that everything was back to normal without this module, I deleted it.
Note that Thunderbird is current and I use Windows 7 64bit SP1 update. I am French.

Delete button does not do anything if the Server Settings have "Mark the message as deleted" in individual account settings. Please fix.

Apparently, Conversations 2.9 is not compatible with Thunderbird 31.7.0. So my remarks concern Conversations 2.8.1.
The main problem I see is that is not possible to drag and drop attachments to the directory I want to save them in, which would be more efficient than using a "classical" interface.

Conversations works... but I had two gripes that were sufficient to cause me to disable it.
1) I like the Message pane's toolbar as it was. If it had simply added a button or two for managing multiple items in a conversation/thread, that would be acceptable. But it completely changes the appearance (and usefulness) of the Message pane's toolbar. There needs to be an option to minimize the changes to the toolbar.
2) The messages are all wrapped in some border with rounded corners... I don't need the extra padding or the borders. Trying to fancy it up just reduces the amount of room that I have to view emails and increases clutter. Simpler is better, guys.

Genial. Creo que Thunderbird debería fijarse mucho en esta extensión para evolucionar en el futuro. Sobretodo la forma de ver la cadena de mensajes y la forma de responder rápido.

Excellent improvement. I like this threaded view and it's IMO also better as in Postbox. Good work!

Nice one. There is just a small bug. I use TB portable with enigmail and gnupg 1.4 portable. I tried to update to gnupg 2. As this was not successfull I downgraded to 1.4 again. And then this bug occured:
I wasn´t able to save configuration of enigmail anymore with actived TB conversations (next mentioned as TBC). With deactivated TBC I can saved it, encrypted mails were decrypted. After activating TBX again this was true also until a restart. After a restart enigmail asks again for an installation of gnupg and configuration can not be saved.
I solved that problem with uninstallation of TBC, configuration of enigmail and then a new installation of TBC.
Hope this helps either developers and/or users.

I wish it would stop adding one extra hour to my sent mails and adding them to the bottom of the convos.

It's great but it would be nice to re-order the conversations (new on top). Also I think it's a bit too colorful (every person has a different color and bold font, folders are white text in a dark box)....not sure if there's a way to change that. But anyway it really helps organization.

I have found that since I started using this add-on that it saves me a lot of time and frustration.
I was somewhat daunted by some of the critical reviews, but have very few issues with it in the three weeks I have been using it.
I suppose that everyone configures Thunderbird differently and sees something different. Also, some may not compact folders often or may have corrupted databases and not know it, but for me it is a very valuable addition to Thunderbird and IMO should be part of the software itself.
The only obvious issue I have is that when I open a new window when reading a message, that window is oversize and uncontrollable. I'm willing to live with that until such time as it is fixed.
I'm giving this five stars because it is so valuable to me and I am willing to overlook a few little bugs.
Even without this add-on, I suggest setting Thunderbird to compact folders more often as the default is too seldom -- IMO You'll be happy if you do.

Doesn't work. I enabled it and nothing changed. Also, the unified inbox was messed up, displaying garbage.
