I use Thunderbird to read this forum and have gotten jealous of the
Markdown formatting that the website supports but that Thunderbird
doesn't. So I made [an
extension](https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/render-markdown-messages/)
to render Markdown-formatted messages in Thunderbird.
Unfortunately this doesn't allow sending messages with Markdown
formatting from Thunderbird—that would probably belong in the
[Markdown-here](https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/markdown-here-revival/)
extension but can't work yet because Thunderbird currently [doesn't
allow modifying the content-type
header](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1717221) (bug filed
by Vladimir). My extension is limited to reading Markdown-formatted
messages.
cybershadow came up a while ago with a nice hack around this issue:
https://gist.github.com/CyberShadow/ccb3813d5953e5e7f2c53fe43275f986
I put it in a ready to use dub project (but did not put it to the registry).
Kind regards,
Christian
