Penelope Extensions
Penelope Extension Alpha 0.1 releases
The Penelope extension works with Thunderbird 1.5.0.4 or higher. For more information about Penelope see the Penelope wiki page.
The current version of Penelope is 0.1a22, which can be downloaded from here. The main thrust of the changes was to make the extension more compatible with Thunderbird 3.0 (trunk) versions.
There are a number of minor changes as well:
- Auto-compaction was turned on by default, and is set to a threshold of 10 MB.
- Hitting space to go through unread messages is now fixed.
- Ctrl/Cmd+M now mapped to Mail Check instead of New Message.
- Junk, Not Junk, Delete menu items fixed.
- Junk, Not Junk shortcuts (Ctrl/Cmd + [Shift] + J) fixed.
- "Make Address Book Entry" menu item now in correct spot in Tools menu (Mac only).
- Empty menu items in Tools menu removed.
- Customize Toolbar dialog fixed under Mac and general UI improvements including moving strings to localizable files.
» Note to Firefox users: When you click a link to an XPI file, Firefox thinks you are trying to install an extension to Firefox and brings up the install dialog. This is not going to work. Instead, Right-click on the links for the extension and save to disk, then install from within Thunderbird's Tools->Add-ons window.
» Note to Safari users: When you click on the http link, Safari may try to load the XPI file as plain text. To avoid this, right-click (or control-click) on it and select Download Linked File from the contextual menu.

Previous versions of Penelope are available:

- 0.1a16: fixes errors on the javascript console and makes the Penelope extension compatible with addons.mozilla.org.
Penelope is available on addons.mozilla.org. However, due to a limitation of AMO in not being able to have both Public and Sandbox versions visible at the same time, only the most stable version will be available there.
