This is the source code for Thunderkey, a Thunderbird extension.

End-of-Life?

UPDATE, July 11, 2022: Though Thunderkey installs on Thunderbird 102.0, some functionality does not work correctly, and Thunderkey will likely not install at all on subsequent versions of Thunderbird. For more information, see: https://github.com/george-thomas-hill/thunderkey/issues/2

Features

Thunderkey lets you perform common email tasks using keyboard shortcuts.

You can:

• Navigate up or down one folder at a time.

• Jump to your favorite folders.

• File messages in those folders.

• File your last-sent message.

• Create new folders.

All shortcuts can be customized.
