This maintenance release extends compatibility to Thunderbird v151, and adds more theme compatibility improvements.

Maintenance Release 4.18.2

  • Compatibility with Thunderbird 151
  • more theme compatibility improvements

Maintenance Release 4.18.1

  • Compatibility with Thunderbird 150

  • Remove unnecessary Warning when changing Identity (often caused by Identity Chooser Add-on) [issue #415]

    Since Thunderbird 131, selecting a different identity for the from address will always set a "modified" flag that signals that the email was edited. This will lead to SmartTemplates unnecessarily warning of potential data loss, even if the user hasn't typed anything.

    This was especially jarring With Add-ons like identity chooser, which forces the user to always select an identity.

    In the new version, SmartTemplates will store a checksum of the contents of the current template and then will compare this with the contents when a new identity is selected. If the contents are identical, then no warning will be shown.

There is a new option in General >> Signatures, which allows adding the correct signature while keeping the text of the email unchanged to avoid work loss.

Improvements

  • Enhancement: Import external templates menus from other profile [issue #414]. When opening a smartTemplates.json file from another profile, which is typically stored in the profile/extensions subfolder,this will import the list from the selected editing mode (write / reply / forward or snippets).

All imported menu items are moved to the top of the list in he order read from the file contents.

If the an entry exists with the same name / category, or with the same file path (within the current editing mode), then it will be replaced with the entry from the imported file. So this could also be used to reorganize or rename existing templates.

  • Enhancement: Import members of a Named Mailing List from template (using %header.set%) [issue #411].

Example: %header.set(to,"list:listName")% this will read all standard address books (not cardbook) and searches for lists named listName. Uses the primary email address of all members of the list, so you can set to, cc or bcc.

  • Support relative file paths for %attach()% [issue #335]
  • Improvements for correcting "Lastname, Firstname" [issue #305]
  • Added documentation for setting priority to variables window. [issue #412]
  • Modernized icons of external template toolbar.

Miscellaneous

  • removed Console chatter about Cardbook and any matched address book cards.
