Does anybody know what he is using for the coloring of the mails in Thunderbird?

Also the new Version of Thunderbird has vastly improved search, I think.

Let's say you want to color the messages you've read, like he says he's doing:

1 - Message -> Tag -> New Tag... call it 'Read' and choose a color

2 - Tools -> Message Filters.. click 'New' and give the filter a name (eg. color read messages)

3 - select 'Status' - 'is' - 'Read' from the first row of drop down menus ('For incoming messages...')

4 - select 'Tag Message' - 'Read' (under: 'Perform these actions:')

Thanks, but how to enter "sender is in my address book" in the filter?

Edit: ah sorry, just saw that it is now an built-in option for the Thunderbird message filters.

Edit2: even better, just saw that the spam filter now has an option for "don't mark as spam if sender is in address book" :-)

... how does this guy get anything accomplished?

I <3 that Thinkpad X200 too. It's actually better than the new X201 since the latter is no longer available in hi-res.

IPredator seems a nice idea, i didnt knew about it. Tks
