FoxyProxy is an advanced proxy management tool that completely replaces Thunderbird's proxy configuration. The extension offers more features than SwitchProxy, ProxyButton, QuickProxy, xyzproxy, ProxyTex, TorButton, etc:
Animated statusbar/toolbar icons show you when a proxy is in use
Define which proxy to use (or none!) for arbitrary URLs using wildcards, regular expression, whitelists, and blacklists
Define multiple proxies and order their use with priorities
No more wondering whether a URL loaded through a proxy or not: FoxyProxy includes an optional log of all URLs loaded, including which proxy was used (if any), which pattern was matched, timestamps, etc.
Temporarily or permanently disable a proxy with the click of a button
Out-of-the-box support for Tor - zero configuration
Optional status bar information about which proxy is currently in use
Full Proxy Auto-Config (PAC) support, with PAC features not available within Firefox itself
Unobtrusive presence, stable execution, premier support
