John Snow (developer extraordinaire at AOL) updated the Top Coder extension I wrote about back in Sept ‘06 which allows people with AOL mailboxes to use the special AOL mail features in Thunderbird. This is a cool extension as it brings UNSEND, STATUS and REPORT SPAM to Thunderbird users.

Anyway, as John just reported in the comments of the original post, he is having trouble getting the extension out of the “sandbox” area of Mozilla.Org. If you would like to have this extension see the light of day, please help by leaving a comment in the sandbox area. You will need to create an account on mozilla.org in order to do this. Here are the steps:

1. Visit http://addons.mozilla.org/ and REGISTER an account. Confirm the account (click on the link in the email you will receive)

2. Login with your new account and go to your account preferences and ENABLE SANDBOX access.

3. Visit https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/4860 and leave a comment.

Thanks for your help, Carl (and John ;-)
