I just installed Thunderbird, I haven't configured any email accounts yet. I thought I'd add a couple add-ons that I know I'll need, namely localfolders and importexporttools. But when I click the "Add to Thunderbird" button, nothing happens! I also tried downloading the ".xpi" file and installing from the file, and nothing happened there either!

Does it not work until you configure an email account first?
