It is very important here to understand the limits of a Thunderbird
add-on.

It is necessary to understand that no add-on can change the basic
functions of Thunderbird.  No add-on can change the compliance of
Thunderbird to email protocols for POP3/SMTP or IMAP (our Webmail
Author knows that and works to functions inside Thunderdird to help us
- like filters as Chris mentions). If you have aspirations as a
developer and you want to understand what add-ons can do you must
first understand those protocols thoroughly.
