Hello,

I am experiencing a severe issue with the macOS system print dialog handling in Thunderbird, which started immediately after updating to version 152.

Environment

   * OS: macOS Tahoe 15.5.1 (26.5.1)
   * Hardware: Apple M4 (Silicon)
   * Thunderbird Version: 152 (Issue present) / 151 (Works perfectly)

Description of the problem: When I use the native macOS system print dialog within Thunderbird and select either "Open in Preview", Instead of opening the Preview app Thunderbird bypasses the command and immediately sends the document directly to the default physical printer. The same happens with "Save as PDF", the file-saving dialog is first presented, but after entering the filename the document is also sends to the default physical printer rather than being saved.

Steps to reproduce:

  * Open an email in Thunderbird v152.
  * Select Print...
  * in the Print Dialog window, select "Print using the system dialog" 
  * The system print dialog is opened
  * Click the PDF dropdown and select "Open in Preview" or "Save as PDF".

  Result: The document is instantly printed on the physical printer instead of performing the macOS system action.

Steps taken:

  * Tested with Thunderbird v151: The macOS system print dialog works perfectly as intended.
  * Upgraded to v152: The issue appears immediately and consistently.
  * All other applications (Safari, Chrome, Microsoft products, Apple Mail) work correctly 

This seems to be a serious regression in how Thunderbird v152 handles native macOS print system events and dialog actions on Apple Silicon / macOS Tahoe.

Any help or a fix for this would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards, Michel

Needed to ire install thunderbird email and could not get past the "donation" page Paid a "donation" and still cannot get past the donation page The release channel button did nothing Am thinking the donation is a scam How Can I use thunderbird for emails Margaret

New to Thunderbird.

I have added a Gmail account to Thunderbird. I select a message in Inbox, right click > Move To > Local Folder

It seems to work. It creates a copy in Local Folder.

However, a few seconds later, the message reappears in the Inbox. The message in Local Folder is still there, confirming that copy is made successfully.

Also, the message is still in Gmail account when viewed from Google's Gmail. It's clearly working like Copy rather than Move.

This is frustrating. Is it a bug?

E-Mail messages are in Xfinity, but do not come to Mozilla Thunderbird. Not having access to Mozilla email, prevents messages to be sent from Xfinity. I also cannot send messages from web sites. brucelowrey@comcast.net

All of a sudden every time I open something in an email it automatically creates a new tab. When I delete what I have open it takes me out of my email account and I have to delete the tab to get back to my remaining emails. I have changed nothing so I am confused as to why it has recently changed.

hello, i had a friend and his father needed urgently to migrate his thunderbird with 1 email to a new computer but he wasnt able to setup the emailaccount in a new german client. i helped and the problem was that the setup asks for the password but it meant the password from the emailprovider to allow thirdpartyapps access. please consider to improve the german setup wizard by adding a new textline to clearify. best regards

Thunderbird is not connecting with Xfinity Comcast for sending or receiving emails at gpenkala@comcast.net . This combination was working fine for decades. Last Friday (Jun 12) was the last email I received in Thunderbird. I can view current emails on the Xfinity website, but these are not being transferred to my Thunderbird account anymore, These are the error messages:

"Sending of the message failed.

Unable to authenticate to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.comcast.net. Please check the password and verify the 'Authentication method' in 'Account Settings | Outgoing server (SMTP)'." "Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail: Outgoing server (SMTP) error. The server responded: resomta-c2p-555483.sys.comcast.net resomta-c2p-555483.sys.comcast.net Excessive failed authentication, ESMTP server temporarily not available."

Can you tell me what configurations I should be using within Thunderbird for Incoming and Outgoing Servers?

the default font for writing texts is too small for me to easily read. Yet when I send the message the text size too large, How do I control these font sizes independently

Hello, I have six calendars: five are hosted by one provider, Runbox.com, via SabreDAV, and one is hosted by a different provider, Apple iCloud Calendar. I am periodically seeing the error shown below on multiple calendars during automatic sync.

I have saved a two-day event history from the error console and can provide it on request, along with any other troubleshooting information that may be helpful.

I am technical by nature, but my programming experience was primarily with mainframes rather than personal computers. Could someone kindly help me troubleshoot this ongoing issue?

Thanks in advance.

I have just been updated to a fibre BT account. My Thunderbird e. mail now refuses to let me send out e. mails, though it receives them correctly. It rejects all recipients. I have checked the outgoing server and the settings are correct. This problem is specific to one computer here, others don't have any problems. Despite refusing to send e. mails, my e.mail service provider, Greenby, has received mail from me this morning which is said to be unsent. What is blocking the server?

somehow i managed to import from one email account to another thinking i would like it but i don't like since it just makes me have same mail in 2 places but i don't know and can't find how to cancel the import, can someone tell me how
