Thunderbird Add-On Adds the ability to customize the date format of the archive folders created by TB Archive Messages

Message Archive Options

Message Archive Options is a Thunderbird Add-On that adds the ability to customize the date format of the archive folders created by the Thunderbird Archive Message function.

This add-on is the original work of Andrew Williamson and with his permission I will be updating the code for compatibility going forward and possible improvements.

Message Archive Options Add-On Installation

Normal install (requires Internet access) from Thunderbird Add-on site:

• Download and install ATN version via the Add-ons Manager.
• From the Thunderbird Menu Bar, select Tools then Add-ons to open the Add-ons Manager. Choose the Extensions tab, search for “Message Archive Options”, select + Add to Thunderbird and follow the prompts to install and then restart.

Install (with or without Internet access) XPI directly:

• Download and install GitHub XPI version via the Add-ons Manager.
• From the Thunderbird Menu Bar, select Tools then Add-ons to open the Add-ons Manager. Choose the Extensions tab, click the gear icon and choose Install Add-on From File…

Compatibility with TB78

Thank you for your add-on which I have been using for a few years now to change the default "Archive" shortcut within thunderbird to something less error prone that "A".

Unfortunately, the add-on isn't compatible with TB78 anymore. Are there any plans to update the add-on? I saw a potentially useful comment on legacy add-ons here.

If there are no plans to update, would you know a work-around to change the Archive shortcut? I previously relied on keyconfig but this hasn't been supported for a long time (which is why I moved to "message archive options").

ImportExportTools NG Bug Report

I contact you to confirm the operation.

I'm using the "ImportExportTools NG" ver10.0.0
in a Japanese environment.

It's not working a CSV output working properly.
It was able to use this until October 1st, I think.
So, It may be the influence of this update.

Please check the operation of "Search and Export" function.

About CSV output.
If you select "All" and export to CSV, you will see the following
The output is garbled.
The output data is in a different format, and the export is not accurate.

Also, when exporting in CSV format under "Selected,
the file can be exported , but the data is zero bytes.
In other formats (e.g. eml), the file is not even exported.

Even after uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin
The same phenomenon is happening.

If you export in eml format with "all"
The output is an eml file for the number of search results.
This file is not garbled.
After downgrading to 4.1.0 version, it worked fine.

Please check the operation as soon as possible.
Thank you for your attention.
