I want ot create a button in Thunderbird to move selected emails into a folder.
With this example it was easy to create a button:
https://developer.thunderbird.net/add-ons/mailextensions/hello-world-add-on
But how can I add the logic into the background.js to move a mail?
In my former plugin, that is not supported any more with Thunderbirg 78, I could use this js code:
var targetUri = "mailbox://nobody#Local%20Folders/Inbox/backlog";
var targetFolder = MailUtils.getFolderForURI(targetUri);
MsgMoveMessage(targetFolder);
Thanks
I have not tried it, but this seems to be exactly what the message.move() API is for.
Here is the method's description:
move(messageIds, destination)
Moves messages to a specified folder.
messageIds (array of integer) The IDs of the messages to move.
destination (MailFolder) The folder to move the messages to.
It looks easy to get IDs for the displayed messages with messageDisplay.getDisplayedMessages(), or you can use messages.query() to get the messages you want, however I'm unsure whether the API currently provides a way to get IDs for the message you would select from the message list.

I'm trying to write my very first Thunderbird extension. If possible, I'd like to only use the newer WebExtensions / MailExtensions APIs.
Two things my extension needs to do:
Performs an action when a new mail arrives and is not junk.
When a message is read, check if there are still unread messages and, if not, performs an action.
The only examples I've found online dealing with "new mail event" hooks look like there are not using the newer APIs. For example:
Components.classes["#mozilla.org/messenger/msgnotificationservice;1"]
.getService(Components.interfaces.nsIMsgFolderNotificationService);
notificationService.addListener(myListener, notificationService.msgAdded);
or
Components.classes['#mozilla.org/messenger/services/session;1']
.getService(Components.interfaces.nsIMsgMailSession)
.AddFolderListener(myListener, Components.interfaces.nsIFolderListener.all);
... where myListener would be called when a new email arrives.
Those codes generate the error Components.classes is undefined in Thunderbird 91. If I understand properly this is because more stuff is required to stay compatible with the legacy API.
My question:
What is the proper way to listen to a new email event, using the WebExtensions / MailExtensions APIs?
Links I did read (but maybe I missed something!):
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Developing_WebExtensions_for_Thunderbird
https://webextension-api.thunderbird.net/en/91/
Oh! I found it!
background.js :
browser.messages.onNewMailReceived.addListener((folder, messages) => {
// ...
});
Those permissions are required: messagesRead and accountsRead.
I'm making by a requirement a code able to send an E-mail to an specific list of E-mails, due the fact that I must to include the attachments of the record I decided to use an apex class instead an e-mail alert. This object (A custom object ) must populate some fields in an email template with some of the record´s fields. I implemented the following code
Messaging.SingleEmailMessage mail = new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage();
mail.setToAddresses(lista);
mail.setTemplateId('00X21000000QR22');
//mail.setWhatId(idMinuta);
mail.setTargetObjectId('005d0000005NMIx');
mail.setSaveAsActivity(false);
List<Messaging.Emailfileattachment> fileAttachments = new List<Messaging.Emailfileattachment>();
for (ContentVersion document: documents)
{
Messaging.Emailfileattachment efa = new Messaging.Emailfileattachment();
efa.setFileName(document.Title);
efa.setBody(document.VersionData);
fileAttachments.add(efa);
}
mail.setFileAttachments(fileAttachments);
Messaging.sendEmail(new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage[] { mail });
I understood that to make the fields merge it´s necesary to use the WhatId method. In the related code, I have commented it because It generates an error (INVALID_ID_FIELD, WhatId is not available for sending emails to UserIds.)
My question is, if is it possible to do this with a custom object. I´m a little confuse with salesforce documentation beacuse it looks like the method supports a custom object, or maybe If I am forggeting something to include in the code.
If i keep the WhatID line commented, effectively the email is sent with the attachments and the Template but it is not populated.
I really need this kind of solution because the org have in this object at least 20 email templates, for me will be easier just to pass the Id of the template instead of makig a code with 20 different html codes for each situation
Thanks a lot

I am trying to send an email whenever a boolean value equals. The email needs to contain info from a list that is created in a groovy script earlier in the job. whenever this list isn't empty I will need to create a text/HTML email with the contents of the list.
currently I have the email extension plugin but I can't find a way to integrate it with what I need. Is there anyway I could send the email using groovy or use a plugin that triggers based on what I need?
To anyone who it may concern, I discovered that with the Flexible Publish Plug in you can add conditionals to your post build actions, easiest to use string values and just compare those. this is because you can set up parameters at the start of your build that you plan to use to store info in the build environment, and it can be accessed from other places.
you can set string params using the following code:
def paramTempHolder = new StringParameterValue('PARAM', 'desired value')
build.replaceAction(new ParametersAction(paramTempHolder))
for me I used send to indcate I needed to send my email so my code read:
def paramTempHolder = new StringParameterValue('SendEmail', 'send')
I then used $SendMail as string 1 in flexible publish and just send as string 2. If the condition is meet it will send my email. I can use the same parameter manipulation to get the info I need into my email so that it sends like I want it to.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that inorder to use the replaceAction method you will need to add the following import to your script:
import hudson.model.*
I am developing an Outlook-AddIn that automatically decrypts emails. So basically, the AddIn changes some MailItem properties (subject, body, attachments) when new mail arrives. The problem is that when I save the item then the decrypted message is synchronized with the server, which is really bad for end-to-end-encryption... If I don't save the item, then the explorer pane still shows the encrypted message and searching for emails (decrypted subject or body) does not work.
My question is: How can I display and (locally) store the decrypted mailItem, so that all the usual features like email searching still work?
Is there a way to stop synchronization for specific emails in .ost?
One solution that I came up with is to store a copy of the MailItem in a local .pst store. But in that case the user has to handle the messages in two different stores (.ost and .pst), which is not very user friendly. The requirement is that the user has to change his usual behaviour as little as possible when reading emails.
private void Outlook_NewMailEx(object Item)
{
Outlook.MailItem mailItem = Application.Session.GetItemFromID((string)Item);
if (mailItem != null)
{
// decrypt the mailItem
mailItem.Subject = "decrypted subject";
mailItem.Body = "decrypted body";
// save mailItem LOCALLY
// (don't synchronize the decrypted message with the server)
mailItem.Save();
}
}
I would be grateful for any help!
One solution that I came up with is to store a copy of the MailItem in a local .pst store.
That was my first thought of possible implementations.
Also you may consider the following scenarious:
Keep a decrypted copy of the item in a hidden folder. The GetStorage method of the Folder class returns a StorageItem object on the parent Folder to store data for an Outlook solution. A StorageItem object is stored at the folder level, allowing it to roam with the account and be available online or offline. The Outlook object model does not provide any collection object for StorageItem objects. However, you can use Folder.GetTable to obtain a Table with all the hidden items in a Folder, when you specify the TableContents parameter as olHiddenItems.
Once you have obtained a StorageItem object, you can do the following to store solution data:
Add attachments to the item for storage.
Use explicit built-in properties of the item such as Body to store custom data.
Add custom properties to the item using UserProperties.Add method. Note that in this case, the optional AddToFolderFields and DisplayFormat arguments of the UserProperties.Add method will be ignored.
Use the PropertyAccessor object to get or set custom properties.
See Storing Data for Solutions for more information.
Add custom properties to Outlook items with a decrypted content. So, when the item is going to be shown you can replace the content of built-in properties on the fly.
And the other solution is to store the decrypted information in the database. Note, you develop a managed add-in, so you can use all features of the .net framework.
I am still quite new to Drupal and have very limited programming skills.
I am trying to build a job board site using cck + views. I have created 2 related content types: a "job post" and a "job application" - both are related using a nodereference field.
The job application node has 4 fields: id of the job post to which the person is applying, email of the applicant, cover letter (body field) and attached cv (cck field that allows users to attach/upload a document).
Question: Once a job application is created I would like the content of the node (including the attached file) to be automatically sent via email to the person who posted the job (destination email address is in a cck field in the related "job post" node).
Thus my requirements are: (1) to automtically "transfer" the destination email address from the "job post" content type to the "job application" content type; and (2) to automatically send all the "job application" node contents + file attachment to the destination email.
Is there any module that can help me achieve this?
Thank you so much for your support.
My email address is: wedge.paul#gmail.com
To give it to you straight: No, there is no module that will do this. Largely because you have already made most content types and it is pretty unique to your project.
Still, you may not have limited programming skill, I would advice learning it when working with drupal. What you are asking is really not that hard to create by writing a custom module. Writing a custom module is really not that hard, and starting to write a custom module in Drupal is really well documented.
I can tell you what to use in the custom module, however it is better if you create it yourself (for future projects).
So you create your custom module:
function mymod_nodeapi{ //here all the action happens when a node is created
switch ($op) {
//if the node is inserted in the database
case 'insert':
//if node is a job application
if($node->type = "jobapplication"){
//using node_load function, you can load other nodes in a variable
$relatednode = node_load($node->nodereference);
//using drupal_mail function, you can mail people
drupal_mail();
}
break;
}
}
This code has not been tested and can't be copy pasted. However node_load and drupal_mail as well as hook_nodeapi... use those functions and you'll get there.
Lullabot's video tutorial "Learning CCK for Drupal" is based on the concept of a job application/posting site as a case study. It may be worth investigating.
