I would like to known whether exists an extension to show if every single email in still on server or not and maybe make related actions like "Delete from server only", "Download it again" and so on ....
I was used to this behavior from Courier email client.
Thanks
Claudio

Does your email provider support IMAP? If so just set up the account as an IMAP account. It will show what is on the server.
If you want to control if the POP account downloads the message or not then you don't need an extension for Thunderbird to do this. It is included in the program's options. Look in the settings for the account and it is controled there. If you don't find the setting let me know which you need exactly and I can tell you where it is.
If you want the download again option then are you leaving the messages on the server? It can't download it again if it is deleted from the server after the first download.
