Hi, i'm searching and searching and i can't find a place to post a suggestion for Thunderbird. I would like to see the sum of selected emails in status bar. Archiving emails in folders less than 4GB needs moving emails not by their count, but by sum of their size. For example, i have 3GB folder, so i can put 1GB more of emails into it. When i select emails in my inbox i can't see the sum of their size currently so i don't know if i just selected 1GB or less or more.

Knowing selection size would help to archive 4GB of emails just by one drag and drop.

Can you send this suggestion to Thunderbird developers?

as the 4Gb limit will be history in the next release (52) I think your reason for wanting this is about out of date.

BTW Archive works with the pressing of the A key for your selected emails. Sounds like you are making it harder than it needs to be.
