Hi all,
The 10.2 branch of Send Later has been officially released as
production release 10.2.9. There's a lot of good stuff in this
release! You can see the release notes here.
Thank you to all of my beta-testers who helped make this release
better.
This release is not yet available for download from
addons.thunderbird.net, but you can download and install it from its
GitHub
release page as follows:
- Download send_later.xpi
to your computer. (If you are using Firefox, make sure to right
click on the link and select
"Save Link As..." rather than just clicking on it, because
otherwise Firefox will try to install it as a Firefox add-on.)
- Open the Add-ons page in Thunderbird ("Add-ons and Themes"
from the corner "hamburger" menu).
- Click the gear icon at the top and select "Install Add-on From
File...".
- Browse to and select the downloaded file.
- Click through the installation pop-ups.
- You can delete the downloaded file once you've installed it
into Thunderbird.
To subscribe to future beta releases (we love beta testers!),
download and install send_later_beta.xpi
instead. The advantage is that if there's a bug that affects your
workflow you'll help find it and get it fixed quickly. The
disadvantage is that bugs are a bit more likely in beta releases.
You can unsubscribe from beta releases at any time by downloading
and installing send_later.xpi or installing from addons.thunderbird.net.
If you prefer to wait, the release will eventually be available
on addons.thunderbird.net, and unless you've turned off automatic
add-on updates, Thunderbird will eventually update to the new
version automatically. To update immediately once it's available:
- Go to addons.thunderbird.net
and confirm that release 10.2.9 is available for download there.
- Open the Add-ons page in Thunderbird ("Add-ons and Themes"
from the corner "hamburger" menu).
- Click on Send later.
- Click the gear icon and select "Check for Updates".
- The add-on should update and then you should see the message,
"Your add-ons have been updated," next to the gear icon.
