I no longer see the warning for empty trash, I try to change the emptyTrash.dontAskAgain in the Options/Advanced/General/Config. editor to false but don't work and also the ConfirmBeforeDelete add-on is incompatible with ThunderBird 60.2.. How do I tell Thunderbird to request confirmation before empty the email trash?

ConfirmBeforeDelete works here in TB 60.3.2, but to install or enable it, you have to open Tools/Options/Advanced/General/Config. editor and double-click the preference extensions.strictCompatibility to false, OK to close Options.

Thank you sfhowes! Also I change the emptyTrash.dontAskAgain in the Options/Advanced/General/Config. editor to default (true) and then... work!
