Extension for Thunderbird 78+ : Just Report It

[Tau]

Hi,

There's a new extension that could be very useful for Thunderbird's users:

Just Report It

Quote

Just Report It (https://justreport.it) is an email plugin which tackles spam the right way. Report emails straight to SpamCop, the Registrar, a custom email address or any combination in between!

That is great news. However, when I suggest people use real email and get Tbird, I get the deer in headlights looking back at me. Too, it's hundreds of people doing the job that ONE mailserver should be doing. 

I found today that all my manual reporting of domain 170.209.130.* spam for the last 2 - 3 weeks does nothing to stop it. That is in another post. But it is nice to see Tbird is still getting some add-ons.

Thanks for the tip,

Hi,

 

i have installed the Add in Thunderbird and it´s great. 👍

You must name your EMail-Accounts and the Mail-Servers at beginning (once) and than send a Mail to SpamCop Support to arm the Service for you.

After this, you can Push the Button and the spam is ready as attachment (eml-Format) at the automaticaly generated Mail. Just press send and ready.

 

One thing... the Add is in Dutch, so don´t be surprised... 😁

I think it's multilingual, it seems to adapt to Thunderbird's language. The screenshots on the addon's page are in english, on my system it's in French. 😉

One more thing to add: the developer is very reactive and open to suggestions. 👍

EDIT: I've checked by changing Thunderbird's language, it's definitely multilingual.

I've checked, by extracting the content of the xpi file (it's a Zip format), and that's an error from the dev: the file content for german is in dutch,  and there is no file for a dutch translation. I found also that this error was spotted here:  https://github.com/justreportit/thunderbird/issues/7

You could notify him about that on addons.thunderbird.net. ☺️
