They tried clicking and dragging the RSS feed icon from the bottom right of Firefox to Thunderbird, and it didn't work. They're not very technical people, so it became somewhat of a chore for them to find the feed URL and add it with a wizard to Thunderbird. Now, I realize this would require work on both products, but I'm opening it here first. Is it possible to get support so we can click and drag around the RSS icon in the bottom right? If that gets done, then the next step would be to add a listener to Thunderbird to receive the RSS feed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:

i agree - would be nice to be able to drag RSS icon to bookmarks sidebar for example.

I also think it should be implemented !!! Or at least a simple way to copy the RSS URL to the clipboard (why not a context menu on the RSS icon, or why not show the full URL when left-clicking on the icon ?). I think it is abnormally difficult to pick a feed from firefox and then subsribe to it un thunderbird. I see 2 ways, both way too complex : 1 - create a live bookmark from the rss icon in FF, edit the bookmarks properties, then copy it and paste it in the TB's wizard, delete the live bookmark in FF 2 - view the page source, find the related RSS feeds URLs, copy it, then paste it into TB's wizard Is there already a shorter way ? If not, something must definately be done about it.

(In reply to comment #3) > Is there already a shorter way ? If not, something must definately be done > about it. Use LiveBookmarkThis 0.3 http://weblog.philringnalda.com/2004/09/21/right-click-add-live-bookmark everything else is more or less planned for FF2.0

*** Bug 305850 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I'm wondering if this needs a ui-r first, this doesn't really change the look much does it? Or is a ui-r needed for all changes to the UI?

I think the mentioned RSS feed icon doesn't exist anymore, closing this bug.
