# SysTray-X
|
|
|
|
SysTray-X is a system tray extension for Thunderbird 68+. The addon uses the WebExtension API's to control an external system dependent system tray application.
|
|
|
|
The addon and system tray application can do:
|
|
|
|
- custom new mail icon
|
|
- display number of unread mails
|
|
- show / hide Thunderbird (minimize)
|
|
- minimizing hides to tray
|
|
- minimize on startup
|
|
|
|
The default poll time is 60 seconds. You change the timing in the preferences but be aware that a too short poll time can lead to a high CPU load.
|
