Extensions like FireTray no longer work with the Thunderbird version 60+ . How can I run thunderbird version 60+ minimised to tray?

I run awesome-wm v4.2.

    There is a fork of the FireTray project which has been updated to work with Thunderbird 60+ `git clone https://github.com/firetray-updates/FireTray` `cd FireTray/src` `make build` The .xpi file will be built which you can load from file from Thunderbird. Tested on Ubuntu 16.04 and Thunderbird 60.2.1 – Brendan Nov 01 '18 at 01:17

The add-on MinimizeToTray Reanimated works...

Though I fail to see why this basic email client function needs a plugin. TB should support this out of the box.

  • It does hide the thunderbird. However, every time I try to open thunderbird from tray, it crushes. – Sergey Oct 25 '18 at 16:34
