How do I get the old add-on Quote & Compose Manager? Or something else that does the same thing?

I have been forced to move to a Windows 10 PC and had to install a new version of Thunderbird. On my old PC I had the add-on 'Quote and Compose Manager' which would spell-check a message and then wait a predetermined time to send it (I always used 20 seconds, which allowed me to spot most errors or have second thoughts). This feature only worked because I never updated Thunderbird (it is apparently incompatible with Thunderbird 60 and later). Now, however, the spelling is not checked unless I specifically ask for checking, and of course there is no delay.

How do I get back this feature? I'm not even sure if the add-on is available any more. Is there anything else that will add both features: automatic spell check (not while typing, but after send button is clicked) and delay of sending message?

Many thanks for any help!

I have found that the "Quote and Compose Manager" still exists and have downloaded & installed it. Then I had to follow advice from a year or so ago: Open Tools/Options/Advanced/General/Config. editor and double-click the preference extensions.strictCompatibility to false, OK to close Options.

I have now set it to pause 20 seconds before sending the message.

I have also discovered that the spellcheck feature was not part of "Quote and Compose" as i thought, so I will have to solve that one separately.

There is a setting in Tools/Options/Composition/Spelling 'Check spelling before sending'.

Note that QuoteAndComposeManager won't work in TB 68, so if you have TB 60, autoupdate to 68 can be prevented by setting Tools/Options/Advanced/Update to 'Check for updates...'.

I'm not aware of any 68-compatible add-on with the delay-sending feature.
