Hi,

I use Thunderbird 152.0.1 (64-Bit) and I only have three items in the files & attachment section of general settings (JPG, PDF, Excel). How can I add more items, for other file types? Is there an easy way to do this or does this mean I have to deep dive into the configuration of Thunderbird?

And would it be possible to add an item to declare that website links in e-mails have to be opened with Firefox in private mode, which is not the standard browser on my machine?

Thx!

I transferred data to a new computer. I have two emails, when I click 'New Message' one email has a line below the subject line that allows me to set Paragraph, Variable width, font color, Font size Bold, etc. the other does not have the line where do I turn it on at?

I am experiencing an issue where clicking links inside Thunderbird emails forces Microsoft Edge to launch a completely brand new window with a blank profile (no extensions, default settings). It does not open as a new tab in my active window.

My environment details:

• OS: Windows 11 (Version 25H2) • Default Browser: Microsoft Edge (Only one profile exists under edge://settings/profiles, no Workspaces used). • Thunderbird version: Latest stable release.

When Thunderbird passes the HTTP/HTTPS link to Windows, Edge seems to ignore the standard "Default" user data directory profile and launches a temporary or guest-like profile container instead.

Is this a known bug in how Thunderbird handles external URI handlers, or is it an Edge registry/default app assignment issue? Any help or workaround config settings would be appreciated. Thank you!

I already have View > Sort by > Date is selected, View > Sort by > Descending selected, and thread sorting set in settings. See screenshots. Threads sorting so newest is at the bottom, they should be at the top. General emails are sorting properly, newest at the top.

How do I add the thunderbird email app into my firefox links area? I can load gmail into it but I can not find the www stream to use to get to thunderbird.

Thanks.

I use Thunderbird to access my Gmail accounts. Gmail is confirgured for IMAP and I am able to access all of my E-mail accounts ... so that is good.

However, I do have one issue: When I delete an E-mail in Thunderbird, it moves to the TRASH folder and I empty that daily. However, when I go to Gmail, I can see that they are STILL in "All Mail". If I access All Mail in Thunderbird and delete messages, they reappear.

The only way I am able to get rid of them for good is to access them in Gmail. If I don;t, the All MAil folders grow like crazy and messages thgat I deleted are still there .. some were several years old.

Question: Is there a way to set up Thunderbird so that when an E-mail is deleted in Thunderbird, that it takes it out of "All Mail"?

My Message Source displays text in very large Liberation Mono. I can't find a setting anywhere, including Advanced Preferences. Where can I change that?

Liberation Mono is the font I have set for monospace in different languages. Since it is not the default, there may be a connection there.

Also, since yesterday when I reply to certain HTML messages, the font used for quoted text is again large size Liberation Mono. I haven't changed anything, so I suspect it's a bug in new 152.0.1.
