    I wish this were better. I love Thunderbird, but this extension disappears if you do anything else on the computer, e.g. go to another tab, change apps, basically anything. And it's slow to load even though my Chromebook is one of the fastest available.

    At least I couldn't use it. I was trying to set up thunderbird on a chromeos machine and was a little confused why this was an extension to chrome, but installed it anyway. But as an extension I couldn't see how it did anything at all. Read the reviews and everyone seems to hate it, so maybe I got off easy. This seems useless, I guess I'll just use webmail.
