v1.3.0

Find this ThirdStats add-on release on the Thunderbird add-on repository.

Changelog v1.3.0

➕ Full Options Page

Options can now be opened full page in an own tab. Corresponding gear icon links are in the popup menu as well as on the stats page.

➕ Primary Stats in Popup Menu

Overall messages count was added to the popup menu account tiles again, as well as a background chart showing the annual progression of all messages (sum of sent and received messages). The data only shows up, if cache is enabled and cached date already exists for the corresponding account.

➕ Years Navigation

Two buttons for going to the next or previous year of the activity overview.

🔨 Better Handling of Solo Account

The "Open all stats" in the popup menu now points to this single account, when a user only has one activated or existing account. Also a reload of the overall stats page shows that account properly instead of an empty account select field.

🔨 Include Local Accounts for Self Message Recognition

When option Self Messages is set to "From Any Account", local identities now are taken into account if a local account is active.

🔨 Include CC and BCC for Self Message Recognition

Despite the default receivers, CC and BCC are now also taken into account for self message recognition.

🔨 Restore Account name in Tab Title

The stats page tab title now contains the account name again, if a single account is selected.

🔨 Initial Account List

Account lists in the popup menu and on the stats page were initially listing all accounts, instead of the default setting of listing all non local accounts. This lead to unexpected behavior for users with only one local and one non-local account.

💚 Hover Effect of Icons improved

v1.2.0

Find this ThirdStats add-on release on the Thunderbird add-on repository.

Changelog v1.2.0

➕ Overall Account Stats

Account processing and loading got completely revamped. An option to show sum of all account stats was added to the accounts selection. Due to performance reasons, this only works if cache is enabled. Folder filter is deactivated for All Accounts (Sum), date range filter can be used with it. Keep in mind, that processing of a lot of large accounts can take a huge amount of time.

➕ Open Overall Stats from Popup menu

Overall stats can now directly be opened via the popup menu.
The URL of the stats page changed. Already opened stats pages have to be closed and reopened again via the popup menu.

➕ Timestamps

Information about how old the displayed data is was added to the stats page in an information section below the filter. Passed time gets updated live in human readable units. It also shows the specific data retrieval date in a tooltip on hover.

➕ Self Messages

An option to handle self messages (messages from me to myself) was added. This can be disabled (default) to treat every email the same. It can be set to Same Account Only (Messages where sender and receiver are identities from the same account will be excluded) and From Any Account (Messages where sender and receiver are identities from any account will be excluded).
Note that only "pure self messages" are taken into account, where all recipients match the corresponding identities. If e.g. a message was sent to one of my identities and another recipient, it's not counted

➕ Progress Indicator

A top page progress indication bar was added, to show progress while data is retrieved. Percentage is shown on hover.

➕ Leader Count

An option to define the number of entries in leader-boards (most received from, most sent to) was added. Allowed are numbers between 1 and 999 due to keeping a reasonable cache size.

🔨 Show all accounts in Popup menu

Account tiles are now two column and overflow content can be reached via scrolling.

🔨 Fix data of week 53

Days of January before week 1 got counted for week 53 of current year instead of week 53 of previous year. This affected both the weeks line chart as well as the activity heatmaps. To apply this fix, data of all accounts has to be reprocessed.

💚 Rename Time Period to Date Range

v1.1.1

Find this ThirdStats add-on release on the Thunderbird add-on repository.

Changelog v1.1.x

➕ Filter for Single Folders
The filter area of the stats page was extended by a select field for a single folder of the currently selected account for more fine-grained stats about single folders. Note, that folders will not be recursively processed. Only the messages of the specified folder are processed, not the messages of its subfolders. Also processing of folders won't be cached, so processing of folders with a lot of messages can take some time.

➕ Filter for Time Period
The filter area of the stats page was extended by an additional filter a custom time period, adding 2 input fields for start and end date. Date input must be of format YYYY-MM-DD (input of YYMMDD gets auto-corrected). Date input can only be between 1970-01-01 and the current day (also gets auto-corrected). Start date must be before end date.

➕ Show or Hide Ordinate Axis
A new option to show or hide the vertical axis for line charts and vertical bar charts. It's deactivated by default, to maintain a cleaner UI.

⚡ Improve Performance of Popup Menu
Processing of messages was completely removed from the popup menu. This heavily increases loading time of the popup, which serves as starting point to open the stats page in the first place.
