NovaBird 1.1.0 is out
Database and Search:
- Faster indexing: each message is read once instead of twice, about a third faster on a real profile.
- Online-only IMAP folders (e.g. Gmail) are indexed with headers only and no longer re-read on every start. Virtual folders are skipped.
- Indexing no longer hangs on a broken message or folder. There is a watchdog and an optional detailed index log.
- Default search languages: English plus your Betterbird language.
Conversation:
- No more flicker: Betterbird’s own message view no longer flashes up before the conversation view.
- sender address as tooltip and “Copy email address” on right-click
- offers to disable “Thunderbird Conversations” if both are active
- Collapsed threads: selecting a collapsed thread now shows the conversation instead of Betterbird’s thread summary.
Send:
- Undo-send is more robust: the queue never gets stuck, and quitting is never blocked.
Misc:
- Contacts: tags in the detail view and a tag filter chip that combines with search text. Tags of Google/CardDAV address books are stored safely with a backup.
- Option for wider scrollbars; dark themes now also darken the NovaBird settings page.
-Self-test after Betterbird updates: if a future Betterbird version changes something an add-on relies on, only that feature switches off, and the settings page tells you. - Themes: no more wide border/shadow around menus on Windows.
All add-ons updated. Install over the old versions; settings and search index are kept
