HOW-TO install this plugin? #14

I tried installing via "Install Add-on from file" and giving it the ZIP download from github, but it says the file is corrupted. Is there a better way to install this add-on?
I'm on TB 116. Thank you.

Are you downloading the addon from github release? https://github.com/Vigilans/accountcolors/releases/download/tb-115-v3/accountcolors.zip

If you download the zip from the main page, then it cannot be directly installed as that zip has a folder named accountcolor-master at top-level which is invalid.

Got it! Thank you very much.

Also, a SUPER thank you for porting this to the latest Thunderbird.

For years I've been running TB 60.9.1 in a Windows 11 ARM VM on an M1 MacBookPro just to have Account Colors!

Now I can make the latest version of TB mostly the same as my 60.9.1 version in the native Mac app.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! (Do you take donations? -- NV found your sponsor link!)

Thanks for your appreciation! The latest Thunderbird version is TB 128 now, and I am seeking time to support it and is tracking in this issue: https://github.com/Vigilans/accountcolors/issues/13
