Win 7 used to let you drag files from jump lists anywhere you wanted, such as to an email. MS in their wisdom removed that feature from win10/11. The beauty of the old approach was that you didn't need to go find the exact file; finding it in the jump list was sufficient. You can find the file, right click, and select Send To, but that is less convenient than going to the jump list.

The current jump list does have a share feature but the only email client in that lists of shareables is Outlook. I asked ChatGPT about adding TBird to the list and it said it can't be done unless Mozilla implements the Share Target API.

Is that worth submitting as a feature request or is it am impossibility?

Hello I deleted a lot of emails, and I am not sure if all my old emails have been completely deleted. When I go to open Thunderbird, after about a minute it will freeze up. I have 3 email accounts and I can only view one account but when I try to view another email account, it freezes up, and I have to exit. Before I deleted my emails it all worked great no problems. What did I do wrong and what can I do to get Thunderbird back to working like it use to ? Thanks a lot Sam

Hi,

I started to notice recently that calendars in some websites I browse with Mozilla are inaccurate. The dates like months, days,... are in a mess. Then I used Google Chrome instead of Mozilla and it went right. It was accurate with Chrome browsing those sites. Did you hear of the same problems with Mozilla ? What can be wrong ?

Thanks for your insights,

All the best,

Denis

I use Thunderbird on Mac OS 10.14 (Mojave), server is Orange. My account on Orange was referred as POP. I recently transformed it into IMAP ant it works OK. On the IMAP account, I created the same e-mail address than on the POP account, and I wish to keep it.

Now, can I suppress the POP account without loosing my address ? In the Thunderbird help, it is said that : if I suppress the POP account, I will simultaneously loose my address. But it is the same as on the new IMAP ! What should I do ?

Thanks for any help (in French, or in English).

Getting a weird issue. When I open Firefox Beta, if it is not already running it loses focus on Firefox and pops open the Google Play Store over the top of Firefox on its Firefox Beta page. It's doing this consistently and repeatably. I'm on a Samsung Galaxy A52 5G on the latest update of Android 14.

This is an annoyance rather than an issue.

I run Thunderbird as my email and I archive old mail to local folders, which I want to sync to Dropbox.

This works fine, and I have a suitable set of .MSF files (over 100, 000) synced to Dropbox.

BUT. Every now and then (not sure how often, I see dropbox is syncing ALL my thunderbird files, even if they have not been changed.

Can anyone explain how Dropbox determines when to sync?

Is it possible that for some reason Thunderbird does something to the files (for no apparent reason)?

I have also asked the Dropbox forum what is the trigger for a file to be updated in Dropbox.

Thanks, Paul

Every time I open Firefox Nightly it opens Google Play Store to get me to rate the app.

This is a usability nightmare.

It asked me to rate the app originally and I pressed whatever the 'not just now' option was.

Now I get taken to the Google Play Store every time I launch Firefox Nightly. I cannot find any setting to revert this, and have no intention of leaving a review.

I am using Thunderbird and Firefox. Each are set as default on my MacBook. However, Thunderbird has recently started opening links in Safari instead of opening them in a new Firefox tab like it did just a couple of weeks ago. I cannot figure out how to make that stop. I've verified that Firefox is set as the default browser in my Mac's system settings. What caused this to change recently and how can I make it go back?
