    <p>You don't really need to write any JS code to accomplish this. Thunderbird's search mechanism can be used in two UI-accessible ways:</p> <ul> <li><p>Define a "saved search" folder. This filters one or more folders with a set of criteria and presents the results in a single folder. See and be aware you probably want an offline search since it will be faster than asking the IMAP server: <a href="http://kb.mozillazine.org/Saved_Search" rel="nofollow">http://kb.mozillazine.org/Saved_Search</a></p></li> <li><p>Define a "mail view" that can be applied to any folder. Customize the mail toolbar by right clicking on it, choosing "customize..." and dragging the combo-box labeled "Mail Views" to the toolbar. Close the customize dialog by hitting "Done". Click on the combo-box on the toolbar, choose "customize...", hit "new..." to define and name your filter criteria. You can then apply the mail view by clicking on the combo box and locating it under the "Custom Views" header.</p></li> </ul> <p>For your filter criteria, you can either type in all the names as separate predicates where "any" rule matches, or you might want to use the "is in my address book" predicate and just put all of those people in a special address book. For example, such a rule would look like: "From" "is in my address book" "cool people". You can create a new address book via "File... New... Address Book" from the Address Book window.</p> <p>If you prefer to do things programatically and you want to be able to have the list of people vary at runtime, you will want to check out my blog post on creating quick filter bar extensions, as that's the easiest way to hook custom filtering logic into the Thunderbird UI that won't break:</p> <p><a href="http://www.visophyte.org/blog/2010/05/02/thunderbird-quick-filter-bar-extensions-theyre-a-thing/" rel="nofollow">http://www.visophyte.org/blog/2010/05/02/thunderbird-quick-filter-bar-extensions-theyre-a-thing/</a></p> <p>Code for that example currently lives here on github: github.com/asutherland/qfb-pivot</p> <p>If your list of e-mails isn't going to change a lot, you can also create the "saved search folders" (virtual folders, internally), you should check out mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/source/mailnews/base/src/virtualFolderWrapper.js and its createNewVirtualFolder method.</p> <p>Apologies for de-hyperlinking two of the URLs, but the anti-spam mechanism won't let me have more than 2 links in the post...</p>

    1. COThanks for the answer.These list of emails will change based on user request (i.e they are dynamic).So creating virtual folders is not the correct solution.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
