Copy Sent to Current

Copy Sent to Current 3.10 for Thunderbird 78 is out!

Download latest 3.x

Hinweise:

Bei Probleme nach der Installation oder einem Update des Add-on bitte Thunderbird (einmalig) mit dem Schalter '-purgecaches' starten. Dies geht am einfachsten, wenn man den Schalter in der Eigenschaften des Icons, mit dem man Thunderbird startet, hinzufügt (und anschließen wieder entfernt).

Die Möglichkeit, den Zielordner nach dem Senden auszuwählen, ist noch nicht implementiert!

Die Icons zum schnellen 'Senden ohne Kopie' bzw. 'Senden mit Kopie im Gesendet Ordner' sind noch nicht implementiert.

Hints:

If you experience problems after installing or updating the add-on, please (one-shot) start Thunderbird with the switch '-purgecaches'. This could be done by adding the switch to the properties of the icon you are using to start Thunderbird (and remove it later).

Currently it's not possible to select the targetfolder after sending the message.

Currently there are not icons for quickly 'send with nocopy' and 'send with copy to Sent folder'.

Beschreibung

Erlaubt es, eine Kopie gesendeter Nachrichten in den aktuellen oder einen beliebigen anderen Ordner, den man beim Erstellen der Mail wählen kann, zu speichern. Normalerweise wird die Mail in den Gesendet Ordner kopiert. Außerdem kann man bei Antworten die Originalmail gleich mitverschieben.

Hilfreich, wenn Nachrichten z. B. auf einem IMAP-Server vorsortiert werden, und man Antworten auf eine solche Mail im gleichen Ordner wie die ursprüngliche Nachricht speichern will.

Muß für jedes Konto bzw. jede Identität individuell aktiviert werden. In den Konteneinstellungen gibt es im Abschnitt 'Kopien und Ordner' einen neuen Knopf 'beim Senden wählen'.

Es gibt eine globale Einstellung (über 'Extras/Erweiterungen' erreichbar) um den Zielordner für die Kopie *nach* dem Senden auswählen zu dürfen.

Als Abkürzungen für 'Senden mit Kopie in den Gesendet-Ordner' und 'Senden ohne Kopie' gibt es Menupunkte, Tastaturkürzel und Icons (rechte Maustaste in den Menubalken und 'Anpassen' wählen)

Description

Allows to place a copy of sent messages into the currently active folder or any other folder you choose, when you create the message. Usually the message is copied to the sent folder. For replies the original message might be moved along with the new message.

Useful, if your mails are presorted e.g. on an IMAP-Server, and you want answers to a mail be saved along with the original mail.

Activate it individually for each account in the 'Account Settings' in the section 'Copies & Folders'. There is a new radio button 'select on send'.

There is a global setting (via tools/extensions) to allow to be asked for the target folder *after* clicking send.

For 'send with copy to sent folder' and 'send with no copy' there are menu items, keyboard shortcuts and icons (rightclick into the menubar and choose 'customize')

FAQ

Gelegentlich kommt es vor das man auf senden klickt und dann, wenn die 'Kopieren nach' Box offen ist, merkt, das man sich verschrieben hat. Aber es gibt keinen 'Abbruch' Knopf.
Es ist nicht möglich, dies zu implementieren. Man muß das tun, was man tun würde, wenn diese Erweiterung nicht installiert ist: Den Abbruch Knopf von Thunderbirds Popupfenster mit dem Fortschrittsbalken verwenden. Diese Fenster poppt auf, nachdem im 'Kopieren nach' Fenster etwas ausgewählt wurde. Oder vor der Wahl des Ordners offline gehen (das kleine Icon ganz links unten)
In Thunderbird 2 gab es die Möglichkeit, eine Mail ohne jede Kopie zu versenden. Jetzt wird aber beim Senden ohne Kopie eine Kopie im Papierkorb abgelegt.
Aufgrund eines Bug in TB3 (auch SM2) ist das (z.Zt.) nicht mehr möglich. Einfach im Account einstellen, das der Papierkorb beim Verlassen geleert wird.
 

FAQ

It sometimes happens that I press send, get the copy message to menu and then discover a typo in the message. However I can find no way to leave the copy-to menu and get back to the message.
Due to program internals it's not possible to implement this. You have to do what you would do if this extension is not installed: use the cancel button of thunderbirds popup containing the progressbar (which is shown after you finished with the selector box). Or you can go offline prior to choosing a folder (the small icon at the bottom left).
In Thunderbird 2 it was possible to send a message without any copy. But now if sending a message without copy a copy is put into the trash folder.
Due to a bug in TB3 (also in SM2) this is (currently) not possible. Just change the account settings to empty the trash on exit.

Info

  • In Thunderbird 3 sind neue Elemente im Kopien&Ordner Eigenschaftendialog hinzugekommen. Dadurch ist das Fenster nun zu klein. Abhilfe schaft ein Eintrag in der userChrome.css Datei (siehe z.B. goWiKi):

    #accountManager {width: 60em !important; height: 58em !important;}

    •  

Info

  • In Thunderbird 3 there are new elements in the Copies&Folders dialog which leads to a too small window. You might resize the window with the following entry in the userChrome.css file (see goMozilla):

#accountManager {width: 60em !important; height: 58em !important;}
