  • birdtray

    new mail system tray notification icon for Thunderbird

  • > Inability to minimize to tray on Linux

    Birdtray [1] works perfectly for this. I think the only thing you have to is create a .desktop file that opens birdtray that opens Thunderbird automatically.

    > Inability to easily edit the from address

    There is a feature for this for quite a while. In the write message window, just click the down arrow next to 'From' and either choose a pre-configured identity [2] or click "Customize From Address" which allows you to freely edit the from address.

    > And TB still doesn't "remember" which -from- addresses are used by which -to- address.

    Not sure what you mean, but there is a 'Reply from this identity when delivery headers match' config in account settings. I have never used it, but it allows you to automatically choose an identity when you are replying to a email from a particular address/domain.

    [2] You can customize as many identities as possible for each server.
