The Environment Proxy for ThunderBird is a handy add-on that allows users to configure proxy settings via environment variables. With this tool, one can instantly update their ThunderBird preferences to match their needs.
If you're an administrator looking to control the proxy settings for multiple applications, then Environment Proxy for ThunderBird is the perfect solution. Specifically designed for Unix/Linux machines, this software takes advantage of environment variables such as http_proxy and https_proxy to set proxy settings.
Konqueror already has a similar feature called "Use preset proxy environment variables," but Environment Proxy for ThunderBird is specifically designed for Thunderbird 1.5 or later. It simplifies the proxy setting process and makes it possible for administrators to set up uniform proxy settings across an entire environment.
In short, if you're looking for a reliable and straightforward way to manage proxy settings on Unix/Linux machines running Thunderbird, Environment Proxy for ThunderBird is a must-have.
