Experiments

Thunderbird Conversations
  • More polish for the next release: top-posting prefs, signature prefs, quoting / not quoting prefs now taken into account.
  • UI polish.
  • Gecko work to fix the crash triggered by Thunderbird conversations (with :mrbkap, see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=654126).
  • Call to participation — please relay.
  • Enhanced bugzilla support in Thunderbird Conversations. Bugzilla threads will now show meaningful snippets for collapsed messages, in the style of the Bugzilla Tweaks addons. Works with any Bugzilla setup that emits the right X-Bugzilla-* headers for bugmail.
