I am using Kubuntu 26.04 and I am using the monthly stable channel version of the Thunderbird Snap. In KDE system settings, the default email client is set to Thunderbird. Upon every startup of Thunderbird, it ask if I want to set it as the default client for email, newsgroups, feeds and calendar and when I click yes and close Thunderbird and reopen it it does the same thing, over and over. Otherwise the email program operates just fine otherwise. My email accounts are all setup properly and functioning and working and it downloads email just fine. It just has that annoying popup upon every startup. I've included two images to show what I mean. I like the Snap version and prefer that container format. I would like someone who is smarter than me to file a bug on my behalf.

Greetings, Is there a way to change the order of threads in a folder? The all appear with the oldest message in the thread at the top and new emails that come into that bunch are buried at the bottom with no indication that they are there. I'd like to have the newest entry to the thread at the top and to have the threads with new messages highlighted until the message is read. Possible? Many Thanks

Hello,

I have this problem. On only 1 PC from 5, with same mailboxes installed and same configurations, on one of the mailboxes, Thunderbird does not accept setting to "not read" the letter. I tried making time to read the letter and it worked for 10 min, and then again stopped. At final, no matter how it is set, when I push to read the message it always read it.

Tried repairing the folder, but doesn't work.


Any Ideas will be great.

Thank you

Hver gang jeg får mails i min indbakke så kræves det at jeg sletter dem ikke bare en gang, men to gange, før de væk fra indbakken. Tidligere har jeg kunnet slette en mail en enkelt gang - som i alle andre mailprogrammer - men nu skal jeg som sagt dobbelt - slette dem. Hvad kan jeg gøre for at annullere indstillinger om dobbelt - sletning. Kh Flemming

How to prevent firefox from restoring session after reboot (Fedora KDE Linux)

Every time I boot up my computer firefox spams all of my previously opened tabs on my main screen. Due to the nature of my work, many of these windows are irrelevant to my work the following day. The only setting I can find to disable this behavior is already toggled off. Is this a bug? It's becoming really frustrating to close a billion windows every day when I come in to work.

I'm using the firefox instance packed in with Fedora, I believe it's a system package, not a flatpak.

Hi,

I've just updated my Thunderbird for Windows to 151 and I got this nasty surprise (this is why I hate updates these days).

The message list in dark mode, in a table view, now has this awful pitch black background instead of the normal dark brown as it used to have. It looks OK in cards mode, but I don't like cards mode.

I certainly hope this is a bug and not by design. Can this be fixed, please? It looks terrible, it's hard to look at, like old Windows 10 dark mode or some high contrast accessibility mode.

Thank you!

Why won't my filter ignore Re in Subject

My windows 10 machine died on me recently, but I was able to recover all my Thunderbird Email files from the old hard drive. However, the Thunderbird settings I was using under Windows 10 did not transfer over to the new machine and there is one particular issue which is driving me crazy and I don't know how to fix:

Basically, on my previous machine I frequently filtered my emails using the threaded option based on the Subject field. However, under Windows 10 the filter I was using would ignore the "Re:" in the subject line of such threads and so every message in the thread was displayed as if the various instances of "Re:" simply weren't there. However, on my new machine Thunderbird threads messages as if each instance of "Re:" represents a new thread! How do I fix this?

I am using Windows 11 with the latest Thunderbird 151.0.1. I have been trying to add color to the column title background in the message list using the userChrome.css with the following:

  1. sizeCol {background-color: #dcfffc !important;}
  2. recipientCol {background-color: #dcfffc !important;}
  3. subjectCol {background-color: #dcfffc !important;}
  4. dateCol {background-color: #dcfffc !important;}
  1. spamCol {background-color: #dcfffc !important;}
  2. fromCol { background-color: #dcfffc  !important;}
  3. attachmentsCol { background-color: #dcfffc  !important;}

They work except the 'from', 'attachments' and 'spam' columns title backgrounds. Can anyone see what I am doing wrong? Or is there a way to color all column title backgrounds in one line? Thanks

I copy (Ctrl+C) some text from Chrome , and want to paste in Firefox (Ctrl+V) whey need to move to the icon and click the icon 1 more time , then Firefox can let me past the text ? I don't want this function , downgrade the performance seriously.

I think can change it back in settings , no need to move to the icon and click .
