Offline Extension for Debian

QUOTE - From the Debian Package Description:

mozilla-thunderbird offline mail reading support, allows the user to get to download mails at once (e.g. from the imap server) and read them afterwards without being connected to the internet.

General

Currently I have no good documentation and don’t know exactly if there is a suitable tutorial or something on the net to link to. So if you are aware about it or want to contribute, please drop a comment. Thanks!

Install using APT

Add the current APT respository lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list and use

CODE:

$ apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird-offline

to install offline support for debian thunderbird. After restarting either thunderbird the typeaheadfind extension should be properly installed and visible in the Tools -> Extensions dialog. Further the File Menu contains a Offline Group and you can select folders for offline reading when opening the properties dialog by right clicking on the folder.
