Hi, I'm pretty much a new user of Thunderbird but use it extensively. Thus far, I am extremely pleased. There are a few minor things though, one is a bit problematic: How can I make the week start on Monday? It makes no real sense to me why it displays "Calendar week" as in starting on Sunday, because that isn't the Roman calendar week anyway.... There seem to be a few deleted entries about this question but no information if there might be an add-on or something to change that... Another (even more minor) thing is: how can I temporarily select like show last Wednesday till next Wednesday in a week view? If anyone knows, I'd greatly appreciate the info :) Many thanks!!

How can I make the week start on Monday?

There's a setting in Thunderbird Options (not Account Settings). At the top right of the Thunderbird window, click the menu button > Options - Calendar - Views - General
