&lt;p&gt;There’s &lt;a href="http://bitbucket.org/libras2909/qlplugin/src"&gt;an extension&lt;/a&gt;
which adds QuickLook support to Thunderbird.  To run correctly, it needs
a patch to msgHdrOverlay (included in the repo).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The extension is also packaged as a set of changes to Thunderbird, which
you can find &lt;a href="http://bitbucket.org/libras2909/ql-enabler/src"&gt;over here&lt;/a&gt;.  Daniel is working on testing those changes and then turning them
into a patch which we can review, and eventually add to Thunderbird.
For now, the changes to Thunderbird need to go in a qlxpcom subdirectory
under mailnews/extensions, and there are two diffs which need to be
applied.  See &lt;a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=457546"&gt;bug 457546&lt;/a&gt; for updates.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;&lt;a href="http://ilienert.wordpress.com/"&gt;Ian&lt;/a&gt;’s Improved Attachment Handling&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ian decided that the easiest way forward on this would be to concentrate
on the &lt;a href="http://hg.mozilla.org/users/bwinton_latte.ca/dataminers/summary"&gt;DataMiners&lt;/a&gt;
extension.  He did all of his work in &lt;a href="https://bitbucket.org/ilienert/dataminers/src"&gt;a fork&lt;/a&gt; on BitBucket, but it has
since been pulled into the official repository.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m quite happy with the amount of work they both put in, and am looking
forward to seeing them continue to develop their projects in the future.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><category>gsoc</category><category>students</category><category>thunderbird</category><guid>https://bwinton.github.io/weblog.latte.ca/blake/gsoc2010/</guid><pubDate>Tue, 14 Sep 2010 14:55:52 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
