Password not working, so can't pull up new emails. Undere Preferences, deleted all passwords in the hope that I would be prompted to enter a new password. No such luck. So now I have no password and no access to new emails. How do I add a new password?

Hello,

 When receiving a message, Thunderbird considers a line containing "--" to be a signature start mark and automatically removes all following lines (instead of quoting it) when editing the reply. 

I want to disable this behavior. (The content of my (reply) message is my responsibility, I dislike automation on my authoring. ;-) )

So, how to configure this?

Regards.

I have two Firefox email systems. One works perfectly. The other suddenly stopped showing the screen of inbox messages. I can scroll over the blank space and the message will display in the lower part of the monitor, but not in the upper screen of subjects, sender, date. How do I return to default setting?

... now that panacea.dat no longer exists?

Here's a reference for the old method old method.

My wife shares my computer with her own account and email address in Thunderbird. When she sends me an email, my name instead of hers is listed as the Correspondent. Can that be changed to her own name?

Hello!

I am trying to install Thunderbird on my Lenovo chromebook and I am running into a issue of the file not opening. I downloaded Firefox through my chromebook's Linux software but I do not know the steps to repeat for Thunderbird. I'd greatly appreciate a walk along since I'm not great with Linux and its terminal.

Thank you in advance, Mario

Greetings!!! I'm copy-pasting this from the Thunderbird Support matrix channel. I have been Google-ing and DuckDuckGo-ing and cannot find an easy solution, and I'm not a developer and do not understand how flatpaks talk :(

I cannot get the flatpak'd version of Thunderbird to open attachments in other Flatpaks e.g. an attached docx file will not open in Flatpak'd LibreOffice and pdf files will not open with Flatpak'd Evince

I'm currently trying different places/permissions for the Thunderbird Flatpak to have access too like xdg-portal and org.freedesktop.Desktop under system and session bus using Flatseal

I have performed many searchers on the Internet and on this website to locate where the message filters are kept on FF v.98. If I go under the hamburger menu there is no "Tools" entry only "more Tools." If I access Tools on the MenuBar there is no Message Filter entry.

It used to be quite simplye Mozilla needs to follow the lead of smartphones who have the exact same problem with users attempting to find the controls whose locations change in every update. Their solution is a built-in search lookup app. Instead of making users "go hunt" the smartphone app allows the user to ask the app to find what they are looking for. That's why they are called "smartphones."

As for now, I need to know if my version of FF has bugs or if not how to I modify my message filters?

Thanks
