Thunderbird 24.2.0 has a -mail
command-line parameter, with which a specific mail can be opened from the command line:
$ thunderbird --help
-mail <URL> Open the message specified by this URL.
I know that one can use this function to open a specific email by an imap://
URI, but I would like to be able to open a specific mail by its unique Message-ID, no matter which folder contains it. Is this possible, and if so, what does the URI look like?
The thunderlink add-on ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/thunderlink/ ) can create message-id based links to emails and then open these with the -thunderlink
parameter, but I would still like to know if this can be done with just the -mail
parameter.
I found this page about a bug but it does not seem to work.
