This add-on is great. Please add also a thunderbird add-on with the same possibilities.

There's already an old add-on but it's not really maintained a lot: https://addons.thunderbird.net/de/thunderbird/addon/grammar-checker/ - any contributions are welcome.

Do we know where the compatibility issues are? Just in the version numbers in the metadata, in the interface to Thundderbird, or the inteface to LT? Might be worth investigating if we do not know.

Mannshoch commented 5 years ago

https://github.com/nuald/thb-gramchecker seems the repository for that.

Yes, But I am not a programmer....

The Grammar Checker extension Github repository disappeared, its code can still be found in some forks. Anyway, it is not compatible with recent Thunderbird versions. So an alternative is really needed now.

I installed the LT-browser-addon XPI file on Thunderbird, it looks good, but it does not try to correct any text in the email body.

A new Thunderbird add-on (still waiting to be reviewed) is now available at https://addons.thunderbird.net/thunderbird/addon/grammar-and-spell-checker/
