Hate to mention the other product, but MS outlook has the ability to 'allow in-cell editing' on most of their fields (view settings -> Other settings), and the ability to add custom fields to folders. Is there any way to do this in Thunderbird, or a plugin/add-on that will add this type of functionality. Currently I use TB for 90% of my email - I will be a 100% user if this is an option or could be added into dev for future updates. Thank you, JR

sfhowes - Thank you for the information. I installed the HeaderToolsLite, and that does work fine (hot key of 'E' to avoid all the right clicking).

I will test the other one as well, just haven't had time to read all the information on it to see if it really does much more than HeaderToolsLite.

Now I just have to find a way to add columns / custom fields - any suggestions?
