I use this for about two thirds of my outgoing emails to get a neat and professional look. It's easy to use. Anything more than just a few words, I compose my emails in my text editor and paste them over to Thunderbird, then hit the conversion button, and if I'm happy with the look, I send. This workflow of mine avoids any glitches between Thunderbird's somewhat mysterious WYSIWYG-ish text formatting for outgoing stuff and Markdown Here's two different states (applied, and not-applied).
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.13.2).
Works well with OWA (Web Outlook client of Exchange server). Great idea to parse Markdown on the client side and make it universally available at the hand. Thanks dev! Good luck with the awesome addon!

A new WebExtensions version has been submitted to Mozilla for review. After it gets approved there'll be an updated to the XUL version (the one you have) telling you how to switch.
I was looking for a markdown addon for Thunderbird and this one is the best I found. It works fine and it has a nice settings menu where you can change even the appearance!

Very useful addon. When I use Zotero, the note editor is not so convenient. After I installed the Markdown Here, I type some note in markdown syntax and press the button. Something magic happened, the note seamlessly converted to formated text. Wonderful experience!

I use FastMail and this add-on works great for composing in a MarkDown editor (WriteMonkey, MarkdownPad2, etc.) and then pasting in FM's compose window and toggling the Markdown into formatted text.
But there is a problem I see when I use numbered or bulleted lists. Markdown Here will properly indent the list. However, when I'm done with the list and wish to resume regular text UNindented, Markdown Here will not unindent the text and move it back out to the original margin, even though previews of the text in WriteMonkey and MarkdownPad2 will show the text following the lists as unindented.
Apart from this issue, Markdown Here has been working great for me.
EDIT: D'oh! Now I can't reproduce the formatting glitch I mentioned above. Markdown Here is working perfectly. Oh, well. I guess I'll have to live with it. ;-)

Very useful addon, thank you! I write emails faster and easier, and their appears more beautiful. :-) Features I like: - very nice rendering; - support Github Markdown with syntax highlight in code blocks; - dot not destroy your signature nor e-mails below your text; - very easy way to switch between text and rendering.
Works on Thunderbird 45.2.0

Sadly, in many cases, it screws up the formatting completely even for content that is otherwise perfectly formatted on the demo page. Again and again, I write up loooong messages with lots of code and structural elements, only to watch it go to heck after I press the button.

The plugin worked fine with gmail but with inbox if i use ``` <? SOME CODE ``` The email is not sent. as soon as i remove this section its works and email is sent.
