Barracuda Spamfirewall plugin for Thunderbird update

As mentioned, Barracuda Networks seems to have no interest to support their own Barracuda Spamfirewall plugin for Thunderbird. The problem is, that it doesn’t work since Thunderbird Version 2.0.0.4. Here a hack from the user forum to make the plugin work with Thunderbird 2.0.0.4.
If you unzip the .xpi file (it’s really a zip file, just with an xpi extension), and edit the “install.rdf” XML file, you can update the maxVersion value to a number the same as or greater (for example from 2.0 to 2.2) than the version of Thunderbird you’re using, and then re-zip the files into a new zip file with a name ending in “.xpi”. Reinstall in Thunderbird and everything is fine.
