Thunderbird version: 149
Sortana version: 2.4.2

The add-on refuses to install on Thunderbird 149, citing incompatibility. The store listing shows support up to v140. The manifest strict_max_version likely just needs a bump — I haven't dug into the manifest myself but that's the probable fix.

Great project, hoping to get it running with a local LLM endpoint.

Best I remember, Thunderbird does enforce a requirement for a strict_max_version to be hosted on their add-on store. I personally use Betterbird, so I've probably missed some version bumps as the versioning is a little different between the two. I'll take a look at it.

I think I was wrong. Looks like they only require strict_max_version set when experimental or internal APIs are used. Sortana no longer uses those API surfaces (after removing two old fallback pathways) so it should be fine without that value in the manifest. Currently testing on my machine. If no problems are detected, it should be fixed in version 2.4.3.
