Mail XForms is a set of add-ons for Mozilla Thunderbird 3 which permits to use XForms-based forms in compose and read interfaces in order to send information through email headers. 

Forms are written with the XForms XML language embedded into XHTML or XUL files. 


It consists of 3 items: 

* Official Mozilla XForms add-on which provides support of XForms in XHTML and XUL; 
* Mail XForms (Engine) add-on which provides integration of available forms into Thunderbird GUI, converts entered form data into email headers, and decodes email headers in received messages in order to display them in a form; 
* One or several Mail XForms (Data) add-ons which provide the forms. 




Mail XForms (Engine) add-on provides integration of available forms into Thunderbird GUI, converts entered form data into email headers, and decodes email headers in received messages in order to display them in a form. 




Mail XForms (Data) add-ons contain XForms/XUL or XForms/XHTML forms. They register their included forms with the Mail XForms (Engine) add-on. 

Several add-ons based on Mail XForms (Data) can be simultaneously installed to provide additional forms.
