Using Ollama with Thunderbird ThunderAI plugin

We can use local ollama setup via Ollama installation in thunderbird to directly send queries to a particular model via thunderbird using:

Start thunderbird
Go to Tools -> "Addons and Themes" -> Extensions
Search for "ThunderAI" in "Fire more add-ons".
It should take you to page where there is link to Add to Thunderbird against ThunderAI plugin
- https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/thunderai/?src=search
Install addon and then again go to Tools -> "Addons and Themes" -> Extensions
Click on "Wrench" option against ThunderAI plugin to go to preferences page
On this page we can change connection type to "Ollama API (Local LLM)"
Use Host address as : http://127.0.0.1:11434/
Click on "Update models list" and we should get list of models available on local laptop (Already downloaded once).
Choose Appropriate model
We can manage the prompts by clicking "Manage Your prompts" button at bottom.
Note that with thunder AI we can also export prompts as json for future use
