    I've used a TB add-on - "Send Later" - which seems not to work with TB 2.0.0.21. Looking to see if there was a problem with this combination, I find that a new experimental "Send Later" is out. Some posts indicate the old add-on version doesn't work, but reviews on the new version aren't very inspiring.

    Anyone have experience with this?

    Open TB/addons/get extensions Then search for Send Later. There it is at the top of the list.

    Edit: I installed this and it works in TB 2.0.0.21. I sent from one account to another at the specified time and it arrived as advertised.

    Sorry, but I sent twice and couldn't figure out how to delete the second one.

    That's ok. I had a few problems, because the instructions said to click on Save Link As,below. And, there was nothing below. Fortunately, I saw the Download button on the upper right, which appeared to be grayed out, but it worked.
    Not! It could not install, not valid package.
    This one seems to work

    You are correct. Without the check mark a HTML file is downloaded. What I downloaded, and failed to complete the installation was:send_later-1.2.0.0-tb.xpi
    The file which I got from the other link works fine, and it is v.1.2.0.0. Beats me what happened.

    I've successfully (I think) installed the SL8TR add-on, and it appears to work using the "Send Later at specified Time" option. I see the message stored in the draft folder and it appears to be editable.

    However, I tried the "Passthrough to Send Later" option and am mystified. I can't find where the message is stored and therefor can't edit or delete sending if wanted / needed. Where doe it go, and can it be accessed before the send time?
