Bitmask Thunderbird Extension ============================= The Bitmask Thunderbird Extension provides: * A wizard for creating email accounts with IMAP/SMTP configuration targeted to localhost and the default Bitmask client ports. There are different ways to launch the wizard for configuring a Bitmask Account: - Clicking on the statusbar notification. - File -> New -> Bitmask account. - Edit -> Account Settings... -> Account Actions -> Add Bitmask Accont. * Caching prevention: accounts are created with caching turned off and the UI is modified to prevent users from turning on caching for these accounts. Development/testing ------------------- For development/testing purposes you can create a text file in Thunderbird's extension directory whose contents point to the repository dir: * The file must be created in the `~/.thunderbird//extensions/` directory. * The file name must be `bitmask-thunderbird@leap.se`. * The file contents must be the path for this repository. XPI Package ----------- To generate an unsigned XPI package, type the following inside the root of the repository: make DEFAULTKEY= This command will: * Generate a `.xpi` file inside the `build/` directory. * Create a `build/SHA512SUMS` file containing the sha512 hash of the `.xpi` file. * Sign that file with the given `DEFAULTKEY` and create a `build/SHA512SUMS.gpg` file. You can now use the generated `.xpi` file install the package as a normal Thunderbird extension. Signed XPI package ------------------ To generate a signed XPI package you must first have a certificate and then do the following: make signed CERTDIR= CERTNAME= DEFAULTKEY= This command will: * Generate a signed `.xpi` file inside the `build/` directory using the `CERTNAME` certificate contained in `CERTDIR`. * Create a `build/SHA512SUMS` file containing the sha512 hash of the `.xpi` file. * Sign that file with the given `DEFAULTKEY` and create a `build/SHA512SUMS.gpg` file.
