Hi,

we developed an add-in for MS Outlook. The add-in, connects to a mail message, and reads information from the mail - to transfer information to a special journal system.

Is it possible via API to Thunderbird, to create Add-Ins as seen from MS Outlook?

Best regards, Michael Vad

We are managing Firefox settings using Intune via Imported ADMX templates.

We are managing Extension Settings via 'Extension Management (JSON on one line)' which works fine for our force installs, force removals etc.

We have noticed that some users have installed 3rd party extensions which create the ExtensionSettings key in the registry with the 3rd party extension details.

The issue we see if when ExtensionSettings exists as a REG_SZ or REG_MULTI_SZ under `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox` it is then ignored if the `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox\ExtensionSettings` key exists.

Is there a setting we can use to have these settings merged by Firefox or have the REG_SZ/REG_MULTI_SZ take priority or is the only way to ensure enterprise policy continues to work we need to migrate our extension settings into the key rather than string?

Thanks!

Dear Support,

we can not log-in with our office 365 account. We need to log-in with "Exchange Add-on erforderlich", but we receive this error message.

I attached you some screenshots. We do not understand why this error appears.

When we log-in with option "Exchange" then it works but we need the other option because we need to have the sub-folders.

Please help us.

Best regards, Andreas

TB152.0.1 (Windows 11 64-bit) add-ons/extensions not working

I've just transferred my profile to a new computer, for which I downloaded TB152 (had been running TB128), and no add-ons/extensions work. Of course many were rendered inoperative with the update, but that's not the issue, because:

  1. Even those which claim to be compatible, or were updated since the transfer for the purpose of extension compatibility, do not work.
  2. Moreover, when I invoke the Add-ons Manager to inquire about the various non-working extensions, none of the links (which can be seen and read by the OS), can be invoked or even copied (to be, for example, pasted into a browser window).

I went through the standard [[Mozilla Support diagnostics|https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/hyperlinks-in-messages-not-working]] and found no answers. Can someone suggest a next step?

Trying to understand why this problem is related only to the extensions, I examined the profile's "extensions" folder. There are 40 .xpi files (same as the number of mostly-disabled (and mostly-expired) extensions in the Add-ons Manager), along with a subdirectory named "staged" containing 7 empty folders with what appear to be .xpi filenames - though none of those empty-folder-filenames match any of the .xpi files in the parent "extensions" folder. Because the "staged" folder has a recent timestamp (apparently the last time TB shut down), it seems to have some significance to TB operation - but what can be the use of it is more than I can see. What is the significance of that folder and its contents?

Two final (and possibly related) questions about this "extensions" folder:

  1. Is there any way to relate the <filename>.xpi to the name in the Add-ons Manager?
  2. Since nothing in the "extensions" folder identifies which are enabled, there must be some file containing a functional description of the folder's contents. Where would that be?

Grateful for any pointers, -John

As of a few weeks ago, none of the links on the Add-ons Manager Details pages in my TB 152 work, e.g. Author or Homepage. Moving the mouse over them, left-clicking on them, right-clicking on them, no effect at all. Which is annoying, as with several add-ons I use I'll want to go the add-on's Github page to look for new betas, report issues etc. Those links all used to work, opening the linked page as a tab in Thunderbird, but now they don't work at all, not even a right-click menu option to open in browser. Still not working in 152.0.1. This isn't only with me, surely?

A while back I complained about this exact thing here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1401708 — thread's archived now so I couldn't reply there.

Ended up building a small add-on myself since nothing else out there worked anymore. It makes every global search open directly as a list, no more clicking "Show results as list" every time.

[https://amaru7.github.io/search-results-as-list|search-result...]

Free, open source, no data collection. Can't be listed on addons.thunderbird.net right now (Mozilla's paused reviewing new add-ons that use Experiment APIs), so it's a manual install for now. Apparently this is getting built into Thunderbird natively from version 154 (bug 580252), so this is really just a bridge until then.

Posting here in case anyone else still lands on the old thread like I did.
