I am trying to create an addon that fetches updates from an website and shows them as messages inside a specific folder. The documentation (https://thunderbird-webextensions.readthedocs.io/en/68/messages.html) provides API for reading, copying, moving or deleting messages. Is it not possible to create new messages?

What about this? https://thunderbird-webextensions.readthedocs.io/en/68/compose.html

This doesn't add entries to message folder. It just opens a composing window.

Your question is a bit ambiguous.

Sounds like you want to 'move' a newly downloaded message from eg: 'Inbox' to a specific folder like creating a message filter. But you say "Is it not possible to create new messages? " hence the provided link to 'compose'.

then scrape your web site to an RSS feed on the web and display it as an RSS feed.

However this is not really the place to ask questions about how to program extension or use the Thunderbird's web extension sub/super set. While the documentation calls them web extensions, mail extensions is a more accurate name and they are different to the browser focused web extensions and they are evolving at a faily rapid pace.

I would suggest you try the four other locations that are given in the docs for help with webextensions. https://thunderbird-webextensions.readthedocs.io/en/68/index.html
