User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3497.100 Safari/537.36 OPR/56.0.3051.99 Steps to reproduce: I installed latest version of Thunderbird. I had to completely uninstall it immediately, install older version, spent a lot of time just because AttachmentExtractor add-on stopped working. Unable to install newest update because of this screw up. Fail. Actual results: AttachmentExtractor add-on stopped working. Expected results: What should have happen? I should not trust Mozilla with updates. My bad.
It happened because the developer abandoned the extension years ago. It's a wonder it works in version 52.9.1 since it was last updated in 2011. https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/attachmentextractor/ "Version 1.3.5.1 Released Oct. 16, 2011 226.0 KiB Works with Thunderbird 2.0 - 16.*" If an extension developer hasn't made the extension compatible with Thunderbird 60.* or later that is on them and not a Thunderbird bug.
