Very useful, thanks.
Only caveat: Nostalgy++ looses from time to time the connection to the hot-key processing. Going to add-ons, disabling it and reenabling it restores the function.
And maybe: Set default keys such that they do not conflict with hardcoded shortcuts of TB

Life saving! I can't understand why TBird didn't think of this.

Every once in awhile, TBird does something naughty that keeps Nostalgy from working. The latest is that TBird assigns a bunch of ordinary keys (like S, C) to functions that I have no use for (S = toggle the star on a msg--I don't even show the star column). As it happens, another user (FS?) has a fix, which I repeat here (and thanks to him/her!!!):
--------
I solved my problem via the Thunderbird configuration editor and passing the following 2 parameters to False:
- accessibility.browsewithcaret_shortcut.enabled
- ui.key.textcontrol.prefer_native_key_bindings_over_builtin_shortcut_key_definitions

thanks a lot for this useful addon!
Also dark mode works for me, even if it is looking strange while configuring. Switching to light mode is done quickly to configure nostalgy++.

Main function of handling messages is there in v4.10 and working!
Thanks!

IMHO, the most useful feature of this extension is its ability to search for folders; I need this often.

But unfortunately, I can't use the extension because it can't be configured if TB runs in dark mode. There is a bug report about it, but it seems to be ignored (https://github.com/opto/nostalgy-xpi/issues/258).

This extension is a must-have making Thunderbird mailhandling very powerful.

If it helps, some on my side Thunderbird's built-in keyboard shortcuts sometimes (only sometimes??) take priority over Nostalgy shortcuts. For example "S: Add a star" instead of S: Save". I solved my problem via the Thunderbird configuration editor and passing the following 2 parameters to False:
- accessibility.browsewithcaret_shortcut.enabled
- ui.key.textcontrol.prefer_native_key_bindings_over_builtin_shortcut_key_definitions

This application is fantastic. It lets you organise your messages quickly, with 2 main shortcuts "s" and "g" and the ability to find folders with just a few characters typed. It is too bad that it is no longer supported for TB115. I will ne obliged to use a former version of TB until Nostalgy++ is back agin in the main branch.

I feel Thunderbird becomes almost useless without this add-on. There should be a warning when upgrading Thunderbird if this add-on isn't compatible. That way, we won't upgrade if Nostalgy++ is still behind.

As many have said already, this is a fantastic app. My system just updated to T115. Although the new version of Tbird looks and feels great, it broke the best piece... Nostalgy. My productivity suddenly dropped. I can't wait for Nostalgy to be ported... For those who have not, donate so the authors can manage to do the port to the new Tbird version.

[What alternatives are there in the meantime?]

One of the most important Add-on in Thunderbird. I use it every day since years and it became mandatory for my work to stay organized. Hopefully version 115+ is supported soon. In the meantime I am using crappy alternatives and waiting for the long awaited update!

The absolutely greatest addon. Indispensable for me. How can we help to get it ported to TB115? I donated already. Are more donations necessary? What can we do???

The best TB addon, improving over the classic favorite Nostalgy. I really hope it will be compatible with TB115 soon.

Impressive plugin. Some suggestions that I think are easy:

- Remove the icon out of the status bar. It is very large relatively to the status bar. Just the text is fine.
- I would prefer the search view to have all email accounts/ folders collapsed.
- I would love for the search view to remember the last used criteria, so not to set them again and again when opening the panel.

I definitely will donate.

I could not live without this add-on! Combining Nostalgy++ with the tbkeys add-on means that I control Thunderbird with most of the same keystrokes I've been using since I did my email in Pine in the 1990s. There is no faster way to plow through a loaded inbox!
