Thunderbird-Hilfeforum

If I get an email from anyone, I get it in my gmail and Thunderbird. Just what I want. If I send an email from my gmail account, I get a copy in TB inbox. If I send an email in TB, I get a copy in my gmail all mail folder. this also does the same if I use the reply option in gmail or TB.

I have "allow remote content" enabled yet these warnings still appear. All of the emails in my work inbox are from a trusted source, therefor these warnings do not serve any purpose and are more annoying than beneficial. For some reason I can't use the element inspector in developer tools on this window but if I could hide the warning with a userchrome.css file that would also be nice too. I have tried that but it didn't seem to do anything. Here is what I did.

1. mail-notification-top{

display: none; }

I also have toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets set to true (not sure why this isn't the default setting to avoid confusion)

I have several email addresses, some are POP and others are IMAP. On one of my IMAP accounts, I have Junk, Known Spam, Sent Spam, Suspect Email and Virus Blocker folders, along with the usual Inbox, Drafts,Sent and Trash folders. I'd like to remove the Sent Spam and Known Spam folders but can't find a way to do so as Thunderbird won't allow it. I can delete subfolders I've created, but not these. Help anyone?

When I go to FILTER messages <CNTL+SHIFT+K> and it finds the message I am seeking, I'd like to be able to STOP the process and go straight to the desired message. But TB will not let me stop the filter process early. Can this be done some way I am unaware of, or , if not, be considered for an update. thank you.

Linux Mint MATE 21.1 TB v 102.11.0 Looking for a way to have Thunderbird startup with it's window at particular screen location and size. Currently it has a fixed location and size every time I start it up. I have found no settings that allows me the change it. I could also settle with it remembering it's current settings at shutdown like Firefox does.

I want to offer a problem and solution. This information could be added to the help topic that includes the paragraph "What if I want to see my ignored threads?"

Problem: I accidentally ignored a subthread. How can I reverse that setting? Context: Thunderbird Version 102.11.2, Windows 10.

Solution: I right-clicked on the message in the message list pane. Although “ignore subthread” was not checked, I clicked it anyway. This toggled the setting to off. The information message bar disappeared and the symbol in column “Thread” reverted to normal.

Note: the tentative solution I picked up from the existing help topic did not work. I set View – Threads – I checked All and Ignored Threads. This changed nothing.

I have just read that TB's policy is to delete messages in the trash after a certain amount of time.

I'm not sure what policy they follow for this, as the Activity Manager says "Deleted 1 message fom Trash", but does not let you know what msge was deleted. When I look at my trash, I can see I have things from YEARS ago, so I'm wondering what they follow to have things deleted.

However, in the end, I don't really like that TB deletes things even in my trash. I get this is to save space, but I personally do not care about space, and I use my emails like a database where I have saved myself from looking back into my trash and remembering something I failed to do for instance. Or even something I accidentally deleted and found it again.

Anyway, The fact that there is a setting in Account Settings -> Synchronization & Storage -> Do not delete any messages and TB still deletes the trash it its own discretion sucks.

I love TB and want to use it forever. Is there a place I can voice this to them and ask they provide an options to not deleted anything on any folders. Or maybe prompt to delete something first, show us what that email is.

I get I can create another folder, but I'm much happier just hitting the delete button, but know that this email will linger somewhere in another folder...

Thanks for reading

My question is in the subject line. "Will the new Supernova interface and Thunderbird redesign cause problems with or disable old extensions?"

It's very frustrating to have to spend hours finding extension replacements when the old ones no longer work. The last time a TB update changed things like this, I had to waste a lot of time doing this. I had to hold off on updating TB for weeks in fact, because doing so would have disabled so many critical extensions that I was using. Eventually, I was able to find replacement extensions (usually having to embrace feature degradation though) and in other cases simply had to give up conveniences that I had grown to take for granted.

I don't welcome the prospect of having to do this kind of thing all over again.

When I used to click on a link in a Thunderbird email, it used to open in a new tab alongside already opened tabs (in Safari v 15.6.1). Now they open in a new window, which is a pain. I have tried googling the issue but am getting nowhere. Can anyone help? I use a MacBook Pro 9.2 (mid 2012), v 10.15.7, with Thunderbird v 102.11.1 (soon to be updated to 102.11.2). Many thanks.

Hello,

When I receive new IMAP emails, Thunderbird a loads the header of the email automatically and can tell me that a new email has arrived.

Unfortunately when I click into each email I have to wait for each one to load when loading for the first time. How can I set Thunderbird so that all new and existing emails are already preloaded in the background such that when I tap into the email it is already loaded?

Hi there, I have a new Macbook which is running Ventura 13.4 as OS. I have installed Thunderbird 102.11.2. Both of these are latest versions. In System Settings, I cannot adjust the Notifications for Thunderbird - everything is switched on and I cannot change that (see first uploaded image). I have also tried the Settings pane in Thunderbird itself. Although I have unchecked all of the Notifications boxes (see second uploaded image), I continue to get all notifications - banners, alerts and sounds. I do not want all these things as it disturbs me while I am working. Am I doing something wrong or is there a bug in the system? On my previous Macbook I could control the Thunderbird notifications. Thanks, Greg

I am using Thunderbird version 102.11.1 64bit using POP with a Gmail Account. Ocassionally, I have to use Gmail in my Edge browser to send or reply to a message, only to find it appears in Thunderbird.

I am part of an email list in which many emails come in everyday. That is why I created a sub-folder in Thunderbird for them, and created a manual filter so that all emails with the email-list's address as addressee are redirected to that sub-folder. I do want to be able to receive all the emails that go to that email list, just in this separate folder, so that it doesn't crowd out my other emails. I set the settings to "filter before Junk classification" and I also put that filter on top of all the filters.

I just realized that many many of the emails to that email list landed in the spam folder instead. The addressee is exactly as stated in my manual filter. It is explicitly set to FIRST go through my manual filter before they can be classified as spam. If Thunderbird did what it says it does, none of these emails should land in the spam folder, because filtered out by my manual filter before.

Does anyone know why this happens, and how to prevent it?

I have an installed dropbox as a Filelink provider for large attachments. It used to work properly. Recently I found that there is no warning that my attachments are larger than the 5 MB limit that I set. I work with Windows 11 and my Thunderbird version is 102.10.2
