Can I create a toolbar item that creates a new message to a frequent correspondent?
I used to use Eudora, but a year ago I converted to Thunderbird. One of the features I liked in Eudora was the ability to put an icon on the tool bar that created a blank message addressed to a frequent correspondent. When one added the icon, one was given the opportunity to add the email address or the nickname of the addressee. Then whenever one clicked on the icon, a blank message was created addressed to that addressee. In fact, one could put the name of an address book list of addressees as the intended recipient and in that way one could instantly create a new message to the entire group. It's almost like having a button which calls a macro which creates the blank message complete with addressee.
Just thought I'd ask. :)

You could open a new Write message and enter the email address. give suitable Subject' - this will be editable, but helps to recognise the correct Template. then Save as Template. It will be stored in your Templates folder. To use, double click on the email to open in a new Write message. The original will be stored in Templates fodler for reuse again and again.
There is an addon Custom Buttons wheer you can create your own button. But you have to write your own code for what the button suppose to do. Like add specific address to cc of an active Write window.: /*Code*/ var recipientType = "addr_cc"; var address = "foo bar <test@invalid.com>"; AddRecipient(recipientType, address); // awDeleteRow(awGetMaxRecipients());
He who is looking will be searching.
