Thunderbird-Hilfeforum

Hi I have multiple email accounts setup in Thunderbird. My problem is that when I receive an email addressed to more than one of my accounts, if I reply using the reply button in the email preview pane, it sometimes using a different From account in the reply than the one I am replying from BUT does not happen if I use the Reply in the right-click context menu or the Message->Reply option. So I setup identities on each account and selected the "reply from this identity" and typed in the that profile email address to try and fix it. The problem still occurs when using the button in the preview pane BUT does not happen if I use the Reply in the right-click context menu or the Message->Reply option. Why is that and how can it be fixed? Can I remove the reply option in the preview pane somehow? I think this problem might be new as I have not seen this behaviour before and have always used . It appears that it chooses the first of my accounts listed in the recipient list of the email to place in the From field. Again this does not occur on any other Reply option I tried.

Thanks in advance for any help with this

In the reading pane, with the latest update, the toolbar buttons appear with the top half cut off. If I close down and restart the program, the buttons appear fully. But after a while, the cut-off top problem recurs.

I maintain multiple email accounts for which I want to run the same filter rules. I mean the *same* rules. Unlike some people in this predicament, I am never moving emails within a folder hierarchy that is only the same as others relative to each account. When I move any particular type of filtered email, those particular messages all go to a folder in a single account, even if they originate in a different account. So, I really do want to run the *same* rules for each account, where each rule will send mails to a single folder. Mind you, though, not each filter that moves a message has to have the same destination account. One filter rule can send all emails to a folder under one account, another filter rule can send emails to a folder under a different account.

Note that I am going to answer my own question. I am doing this because I have seen people troubled by this problem and yet none has received the novel advice I have used to conveniently solve my own problem. All of the questions and answers have also been archived by now, so I cannot offer my novel solution in response to those question. Thus, I am asking the question for myself so I can then share the results with others.

I appreciate that middle-mouse-click tab closing is a very common feature. However, I need to pass those clicks to Listary and do not want Thunderbird to process them. What settings can I use to turn off this Thunderbird feature?
