问题
I want to write something similar to ActiveInbox.
In addition to original ActiveInbox, I need to add logic that will perform some actions on the emails that come.
What language(s) are programs like ActiveInbox written in?
Thank you
回答1:
Activeinbox is a browser plugin, written in Javascript. It's easy to have a look inside: download the xpi (the Firefox version of the plugin). An xpi file is a zipfile, so open it with your zipfile manager of choice.
After that you should head over to Mozilla's developer site or a Chrome extension development tutorial to learn how to wite a Firefox/Chrome plugin.

Extensions can be written in pure Javascript on Chrome and Firefox.
