How can I change the order of tags in Thunderbird. I want to add a new tag but when I do it's being added before the last so this changes the shortcut of my following tag while assigning to this new tag the shortcut of the previous tag.

Is there a way to just change the order of tags without messing up the tags already applied to my messages? The answers I found for this didn't work for me. Such a simple thing... At least if the new tag was added at the end of the list that would work for me but it's being added before the last. Humm...

Thanks!

Hi

In old thundebird I had unified folders view. Under Inbox I was able to see all accounts and in main inbox I was able to select which inboxes I want to see.

Now, in supernova under main inboxes I see only those accounts that are selected in main Inbox.

Is it possible to activate old view?

Thank you

TB120 A number of versions back the various buttons in the top right of message header (Reply, Forward, Archive, Junk, Delete, etc.) could be reordered in the customise menu. This allowed the placing of the most often used in a position that suited and less often required ones out of the way. Is there any chance of this being restored please?

thunderbird client website has completely changed. HELP. I tried to follow instructions to remove 'threading, but the entire layout changed. To start with the 'inbox ' view is no longer divided into columns which allowed the user to sort by sender, title, date or prioitysuch like. Further to this there are tabs all across the top which I don't want. They interefer with what I do want, i.e. tabs I have made for address book, or emails in preparation for sending. I've tried unstalling and reinstalling, but it is still this useless format. What can I do?.

We had "manually resort folders" in v102. And now, with v115 forced upon us. (This morning, when I opened Thunderbird, it was updated to v115 overnight without my knowledge. And the folders are not the way I left them nor how I want them. So I need to fix this. But the add-on no longer works. So what is Mozilla doing about this?

I just got the new "supernova" update and now I can't find the stettings to place my tabs bar at the top of the screen. The old version had the tabs right at the top, just as a browser would typically have it as well (see new and old schreenshot for comparison). But I'm just unable to configure it that way.

Can anybody please tell me how to configure thunderbird to use all that wasted space at the top sensibly?

The header below the list of emails and above the body of the selected email no longer shows the sender. Which seems really bizarre. I found under View either Headers - All or Headers - Normal. Headers - All gives it all plus the kitchen sink, twenty or thirty lines with a scroll bar. Headers - Normal just gives the subject, and the recipient - me. Which is a bit redundant! How can I get back to pre makeover headers?

Issue 1: When using the scroll bar to browse the list of emails, it skips one email (advances too much), so when searching I sometimes cannot find that email. I tried resizing the list of emails to try to match the vertical size, but it does not seem to help.

Issue 2: I cannot customize the vertical size for the list of emails. It won't accept reducing less than about one third of the vertical size of the thunderbird window.

Issue 3: In between the list of emails and the display of the current email content, there is a large area that I find redundant. The 'From', 'To', 'Subject', 'Date' is redundant since the list of emails already show all this information. I cannot find a way to remove, minimize or compact this region. Even the list of buttons could be removed in my case since I mainly use shortcuts and anyway, they are available in the menu or when you right click on an email.

Hello, I would like to set up root level folders for my alias addresses rather than having them in subfolders. I have tried setting up a dummy email account, but the filter won't transfer emails to it. Is it possible to do what I want?

After the last update the program no longer groups all accounts' Junk folders under Junk, but puts them separately under each account - except for one account. This happens despite choosing Unified view in Folders. All the other folders are grouped (Inbox, Archive, Sent, Drafts, etc), but Junk is not. It worked perfectly well in the previous version. Please help!

There are times when I have 100's of messages in my INBOX, and others where for some reason, TB has my current message way below. So, on MacOS at least, I get the side bar active and I move it to the top. But I thought how clever it would be to have a button that simply reset the view to the top-most (current) message.

'i am now using thunderbird to get my emails. i have two accounts- aol and gmail. when i open the thunderbird app, the emails are not joined, they are separated and i have to scroll to each account to review my emails, is there a way to join both accounts and review both aol and gmail emails at one time? thanks

How can I prevent thunderbird 115.5.1 from expanding my zip attachments prior to mailing? Even though the zipped file is below the 5 meg maximum, Thunderbird unzips the file as soon as it is entered as an attachment thus making it above the 5 meg maximum.

Is there a built-in way or an addon that will allow the ability to create folders as a filter action?

I can move or copy to an existing folder but is there a way to make a folder in a specific location with a specific name based on previous parameters.

Thanks in advance!

pls include code to move all remote server spam content to its inbox [not spam] so thunderbird can do the filtering, and i don't have two or more servers to deal with. thx.

I've been using Thunderbird for over a year now (oh, how I miss Eudora!) and the one continual irritation I have is that if I reply to an email from my inbox (usual), it sends a copy to my inbox. When I send an original message, I have a copy saved to my sent folder on my email provider (Protonmail). I'd like copies of replies saved to the same place. I do NOT want them in my inbox, and the "Place replies in the folder of the message being replied to" box is unchecked.

Just as an aside, occasionally I'll want to see on my phone emails that I've sent from my computer. Of course, I don't have access to Thunderbird from my phone (and pretty sure I don't want it there either).

How do I fix this?

Dear support,

I installed recently Thunderbird 115.5.0 (64-bit) on my laptop running Debian 12.

I have a problem with the font size settings in the message view.

By default, the font size is very small. I can increase it by tuning in the top Menu. Tuning the Font size to 26 pt I get a readible text, see Picture 1. When I move to the next message, the font size becomes small again. Picture 2 shows when I moved and came back to the same message. The menu is shown, and the Font Size appears to be 26 pt in both screen shots.

I have set layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to -1

I have a userChrome.css, but it does not fix the font size in the message view. I wish I could know how to do that!

Thank you in advance for your help! Eric CM
