Get started

Install ThirdStats from the Thunderbird Add-ons repository:

  1. Open the menu and click on Add-ons
  2. Search for ThirdStats
  3. Click Add to Thunderbird and enjoy your email account stats

To properly recognize emails as sent, make sure to configure all email adresses you write from as identities for your email account. You can do so under account settings > select your account > click button more identities at the bottom and add or modify identities as you need.

Also keep in mind, that the processing of large mailboxes can take a lot of time.

Features

  • Total numbers of emails and folders for all of your Thunderbird accounts
  • Sum of received and sent emails per year and per month
  • Sum of received and sent emails per daytime and per weekday
  • Temporal distribution of received and sent emails per weekday per hour
  • Switch between all Thunderbird accounts

Here is how ThirdStats looks like on the Thunderbird default dark theme on Windows:
