[Vtigercrm-developers] vtiger Thunderbird Extension

[Alan Lord]

Awesome - it works.

Want to have a chat about moving the auto-update feature and signing so 
users will get pointed to your repo on github in future (if this is 
still possible of course - they got a bit bothered about non-mozilla 
hosted extensions as I recall)?

Cheers

Al
