I have a brand new computer with a brand new installation of Thunderbird. The email account is set up correctly and emails can be sent and received.

The computer also runs Cashflow Manager which can email invoices and statements. When we attempt to send an email from Cashflow Manger, a new Thunderbird email window opens up but it appears to be in a non-formattable state. You can't write in it or do anything with it. You have go to the file options and do "Open As New Message" to then be able to do anything with it.

Why are new emails opened in this manner different to opening them from within Thunderbird itself?

Hi all,

for signing PDFs with my SMIME certificate, another 3rd party software (LibreOffice) uses the Thunderbird profile folder (nssdb stored which is located there). After some investigation by myself, it could be a problem within Thunderbird certificate management itself.

Situation: I've a current and some outdated SMIME certificates for my mail address. But all for one mail address.

Because the current SMIME certificate is not accessible for LibreOffice, I removed temporary all of my outdated SMIME certificates from Thunderbird by the builtin certificate management, i.e. the list of my personal certificates was set to one entry (=the current certificate) in Thunderbird. But even then, LibreOffice lists only an outdated certificate (which is not visible anymore in the Thunderbird builtin certificate management).

Therefore I've checked with certutil the nssdb entries in the Thunderbird profile folder. Surprisingly, there is an outdated SMIME to my mail address contained (no further, even not the current one). Even after removal of those outdated certificates via the builtin certificate management. The current certificate is never listed; always only an outdated one.

This looks like a difference between builtin certificate management and nssdb within the profile folder (or may for another storage location of the certificates)?

certutil -L -d ~/.thunderbird/myprofilefolder --email mymailaddress

Thanks in advance!

How can I stop Thunderbird from displaying its own advertising/donation page on my browser when I open Thunderbird? It opens this page on my default browser, no matter which is chosen: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/128.0/whatsnew/?locale=en-US&version=128.6.1&channel=esr&oldversion=102.8.0 If the browser is not open, it will open it.

This is the result of trying to keep Thunderbird from automatically upgrading. In newer versions, the option to choose not to upgrade has digressed from difficult to not available. It did such an upgrade, so I de-installed and reinstalled my original version, only to have this issue.

I was very satisfied with my old version AND see no need for new any of the "features" or look. And, especially, once such a setting is made, don't want Thunderbird, or any other application or app, changing it back. This is a violation of privacy at best.

Worse yet, Thunderbird is attempting to penalize the customer for making a choice on their own computer by infecting the machine with nuisanceware.

Trying to set up existing email address. When I type in info, it says "Configuration found ..." When I hit done, I get "unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username, or password."

I have a Mac and have been using Apple Mail. I'm not sure what to do next. I was able to open my Apple account, but that password does not appear to work.

Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong and how to fix it?

Thanks

Just switched from PC to Mac and miss the Page Up, Page Down, Home and End buttons. Wondering if there's a Firefox addon or extension to add these functions to a Macbook. I've searched but not found anything. I know I can't be alone in wishing for this!

(I am aware of using "Fn" and the arrow keys on a Mac to do page up and page down, but they are opposite sides of the keyboard and require both hands to scroll by page.)
