double-check that you extracted the XPI correctly and see if it's
actually getting copied to the correct place.

sogo-integrator is not addons.mozilla.org and the link to
it's website
from Freshmeat is 404, so maybe the add-on was not updated for the
version of TB you're using? Does it work if you install it manually?

It does work if I install manually. I did upgrade to the latest one
also. It does copy to the correct folder and I re-extracted
the contents
just in case. I am at a loss.Any ideas?

The latest release of Firefox does not extract all add-ons, just the ones which 
really need to.

I am currently installing AddBlockPlus by copying the XPI file to the 
extensions folder, that's all.

You should check if this can be done with the other add-on too.

It seems there is something going on in addition to extracting the add-on and 
this step is currently missing.


the new way of mozilla extensions installation I've described here
  http://wpkg.org/Firefox#Firefox_3.6_Series_Extension_Templates
and here
  http://wpkg.org/Firefox_ext_install_downloads
does work with Firefox 4 and 5, too.

It seems a bit complicated, but in fact it's easy: for each new firefox/thunderbird extension you only need a one liner xml and
have to insert two variables for the extension name and key:
http://wpkg.org/Firefox_ext_install_downloads#packages.2Ffirefox-ext-skel.xml

IMHO same system (using: http://wpkg.org/Firefox_ext_install_downloads#packages.2Fmozilla.2Finstall-extensions.cmd ) should work with thunderbird, too.

Just replace
  install-extensions.cmd" Firefox %FXEXT%
to
  install-extensions.cmd" Thunderbird %FXEXT%
in
http://wpkg.org/Firefox_ext_install_downloads#templates.2Fff-extension.xml

As soon as I have some time I'll rework these pages/packages for FF 5 and make some for TB.

Best regards,
Falko
