POCKET works beautifully on Firefox now BUT i also want to use it when reading emails on Thunderbird via computer. My Android phone version POCKET allows me to directly save links from emails into POCKET via both Gmail and Firefox, why cant we do this with windows computer Thunderbird too? especially since my system seems to be handling the Firefox POCKET stuff nicely!

is there any sort of workaround that might be done? know there are rumors Tbird not being updated/improved any more, that Mozilla has shut it down, but sincerely hope thats not the case! if it is, tho, does that mean there wont be ANY new apps for it?!!

1. It is up to add on authors to create their software to be compatible with Thunderbird not the other way around.

2. A new update was just released in the last coup!e of weeks so what you read is trash.

3. It is true that Mozilla is slowly getting out of Thunderbird development but the Thunderbird council is taking over.

Thanks for quick response replacing rumor with info, it helps. BUT still doesn't answer query re POCKET, sure wish we could use it with Tbird! and if anyone working on such an addon, would love to hear about it too so might have hope.
