You can imagine where it goes from here.

I thought I’d document which Firefox and Thunderbird extensions I’m using. This is as much for me to remember should I have some disk failure or something as it is to generate discussion.

Firefox extensions

• User Agent Switcher – easily change the user agent for sites that work with Firefox but don’t think they do
• GooglePreview – inserts preview images (thumbnails) of web sites and Amazon products into the Google and Yahoo search results pages. Thumbnails are provided by thumbshots.org and alexa.com.
• BugMeNot – Integrates BugMeNot right into the browser. Right click on the login area, and boom, you’re in.
• Live HTTP Headers – Follow the HTTP headers back and forth in real time. Helpful for debugging.
• ScrapBook – helps you to save Web pages and easily manage collections.
• ForecastFox – brings weather info from AccuWeather.com® to your status bar.
• WebDeveloper – adds a menu and a toolbar to the browser with various web developer tools. I haven’t used it a lot lately, but is can be fairly useful.
• Google Toolbar for Firefox – goes without saying…
• Tab Mix Plus – Adds a lot of functionality and configuration over tabs. Allows you to change tab size, where the close button is, a session managers, etc. (Now TinyMCE friendly!)
• del.icio.us – Integrates del.icio.us right into firefox. Has a bit more funtionality than just the drag and drop javascript eextensions
• Adblock – does what it says, a powerful content filter
• Fasterfox – allows you to tweak-out firefox’s network and rendering settings.
• Viamatic foXpose – OS X expose like choosing for open tabs in Firefox

Thunderbird extensions

• AboutConfig – adds about:config to thunderbird, for behind the scenes tweaking. The most important for me being mail.check_all_imap_folders_for_new
• Attachment Extractor – Can detach multiple attachments from one to many messages in one fell swoop. Rather than visiting each message each attachment.
• Enigmail – GPG/PGP integration. I mostly use it as a prereq for Display MUA.
• Display mailing list header – implements RFC 2369 for Thunderbird: Special mailing list header fields in the mail are parsed, and the links are displayed in the extended header view.
• Display Mail User Agent Extension – This one is more for fun, but sometimes gives insight into who has e-mailed me.
• Mail Redirect – adds one the features I was missing from mutt. Adds redirection, better known as bounce in elm, mutt, and others.

Now I just need to find a thunderbird extension that does arbitrary headers that are updated on sending. And mutt could be removed from my life. So sad.
