[Project_owners] Thunderbird addon not updated on addons.mozilla.org

[Niko Berger]

Thanks for the info... It seems it was nothing wrong with my extension, 
only that there are not enough thunderbird editors. I got my current 
version finally online after talking my way though #addons (thanks 
Archaeopteryx)

Thanks for ally our help..

Niko
