开始使用 Thunderbird 扩展
我已经使用 Thunderbird 多年了，现在我有兴趣开发一些自己的扩展。我查看了他们官方网站上的文档，但发现对此的入门支持很少。我对 python、perl、php 有一些经验，希望您能给我推荐一些入门材料，如果有一个“hello world”就太好了。
I have been using Thunderbird for many years now and now I am interested in developing some of my own extensions. I looked over the documentation on their official website but found little support for getting started at this. I have some experience with python, perl, php and would like if you can recommend me some getting started materials, a "hello world" for this would be great.

Update: Thunderbird 78
Since version 78 Thunderbird uses new MailExtensions format, legacy extensions
are no longer supported, most of links posted here before late 2020 are dead.
