Hi, I want to save the address of any specific email into a hyperlink which then can be accessed from outside of Thunderbird.

I know I can export the email as a separate file and create a link to the new file but this results in hundreds of new files and is clumsy.

If possible, I prefer to have one Word file as an index with many hyperlinks. Thanks in advance. afk

Not sure if you want to store email addresses as hyperlinks, or pointers to specific messages. For the former, create a list of mailto:someone@example.org hyperlinks. For the latter, store the Message-ID of the messages and locate them by searching TB on the Message-ID header.
