It refuses to install on my thunderbird - I'm using 1.5b2. I'll check back occasionally for updates.

Here is what you do...
1) download the .xpi extension
2) rename it to .zip
3) extract the file install.rdf
4) change line 14 from
     <em:maxVersion>1.0+</em:maxVersion>
     to
     <em:maxVersion>1.5+</em:maxVersion>
5) save the file
6) add the file back to the .zip file
7) rename the .zip file to .xpi
8) install it in Thunderbird
9) ;)

it really has pretty standard functionality that must have not changed in 1.5 so it works fine for me!
