Hi,

I use the quick filter option very often. I use this to filter my message list by sender I'm a bit "tired" of constantly copying the sender e-mail address -> then pasting it into the quick filter field.

I am looking for an option like "Quick filter by this sender" or something like that Does anyone know how i can achieve this?

This works with the TotalQuickFilter add-on. Right-click a message, Filter by Sender, and the sender's address is copied to the Quick Filter Bar, and the folder is filtered according to that sender. There are many more options.

I can't find it in the official Thunderbird add-on repository. Do you know why? Or maybe I just can't find it?

I don't know why it's not on the TB site, but the add-on is from a long-time contributor, so I don't have any reservations about installing it.

Thanks for your help
