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

for years I have used Thunderbird, and during that time have replaced serveral old pc/laptops. My new laptop when trying to open Thunderbird asks for a password. I have no record of that anywhere!! So how do i create a new password or gain acess to use Thunderbird. Im using Windows 11

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?

In quick filter toolbar I am missing to search by from, to , subject, body as it was in TB112. Without using addons, such as Expression Search this would be a major flaw of the new TB115 in the usability.

New version of Thunderbird keeps grouping messages in topics, If I change option to not group in View-> Order By -> Not Group it works for some time and then groups messages again.

I don't see the solution to my questions. I have trouble READING and thus, I cannot see all the tiny answers!!! Is there not some SIMPLE solution to make all font BOLD in incoming email? I cannot see to search and sift through so many useess answers. I need exact, step by step, instructions. I don't know why this should be so difficult since so many people have visual handicaps. PLEASE HELP.

Ever since the updates I can't move the bar up to have a smaller window for emails and a larger window for the actual letter. I used to move it up to have the last 3 emails showing. Now the least I can have is 10, leaving a small window for the letter itself. Why? Why make updates that give us less flexibility. Sometimes updates drive people like me crazy. We get used to something and it gets changed. I have been sending in money to support this email program. But right now I'm quite discouraged with it and wondering if I should be looking for something else.

I am using the current Thunderbird and when I have the email clients collapsed the page is a general one that lets me create new mail or calendar accounts. I would like to not see that and perhaps just see a clean, tidy, blank page. How can I do it?
