DragonTalk userobservation for Thunderbird

This extension observes the user actions in the Thunderbird mail client, like mail selection, mail movement, creation or deletion of a folder etc. (for als events see the list below). If the user does one of the observed actions, the extension will send a XML-RPC. To protect the privacy of the user, it is possible to deactivate the sending of the XML-RPC in the settings dialog .

About the XML-RPC

For general information about XML-RPC look at ​http://www.xmlrpc.com/

The <methodName> consists of two parts separated by a dot. the first part is the service name witch can be changed in the settings dialog. The second part is the name of the event witch is associated with the action of the user.
