So many emails require me to scroll to the right to finish reading one line, back to the left for the next, etc. They hurt my head, they take fireever to read, and they hurt my right arm too. Thunderbird used to have an option to wrap messages, but it looks like it was deleted.

I tried adding the following tom my user css:

  1. messagepane {
   margin-left: 45pt !important;
   max-width: 900px !important;
   margin-right: 45pt !important;

}

The margin-left works. It gives a spacer between the message pane and the folder list.

The max-width and margin-right don't work. The messages still require horizontal scrolling, and the scrollbar shifts left, right up against the text, so it doesn't give the needed spacer.

I use the spacers to avoid the parallax-induced migraines.

Dear friends, This is another question of the type "it has stopped to work after years of perfect service". I do: Tools/Message filters/. The filters are for me (only user). The "Enabled filters" drop-down list shows 238 items with virtually everyone enabled. Then I select folder to be filtered in the input window at the bottom; my "Sent" folder. Then, when I click the button "Run Now", nothing, absolutely nothing, happens. Normally Thunderbird lists messages like "Moved x mails from Sent to folder Y" .

Thunderbird 144.0.1 (64-bit) under Windows 10 which was first removed whereupon it was downloaded and reinstalled.

Hopefully someone has a suggestion where I can check for the cause of this error? Ch

Thank you for your help. I don't know when this started happening, but I noticed that the notification sound for new emails was not working. You can switch between the default (D) or WAV file (U) in Settings → New mail notification → Play sound, but it will not work no matter which one you select. Also, in the field for specifying WAV files, the directory of the file specified from the previous version is entered, but I cannot delete it (see attached image).

Thank you for your support. (Powered by Google)

I am using Mozilla as my default web browswer in Unix environment. It is great... except for a particular behavior of the browser window. When I middle click (MB2) the frame of the window, it doesn't go to the background, like all my other windows. Intead it opens a new tab (when I click at the top of the window). This is very annoying becaue I use MB2 /go to background all th etime. Any idea how to change that behavior and make it consistent with my general unix preference? Here is how it looks: see attachment.

Thanks in advance.

"Can't Compact Folder" Message - Useful? Any Chance of Getting Rid of It?

Every so often a message pops up that a folder can't be compacted because it's in use.

I don't understand why TB bothers users with this message. Compacting folders is supposed to be invisible to the user. It'll get compacted eventually, so no user action is required.

If I'm missing something, please educate me.

And if not, what's the best chance of getting it removed? Should I submit a bug report and argue that it's a bug in the design? Is a suggestion likely to do anything?

The New Line (Enter) key always double spaces, which is intended for paragraph text. But for tabular text, this makes unnecessary white space. What key combination generates only a SINGLE new line character rather than TWO of them?

Example: Donor: xxxxx Email: xxxxx Phone: xxxxx Billing Address: xxxxx Bank: xxxxx; Account ending in xxxx

This screen defaults to single spacing; why doesn't Thunderbird allow it?

Hello!

Lovely mail app you've built, thank you.

I was just wondering if it's possible to add an inbox zero message/statement/picture when the entire inbox is empty (maybe a toggle for this in the settings) to reward users who finish their inbox, in both Android and Windows version.

Thanks!

When I compose email messages, I want them to be plain text only. In older versions of Thunderbird, this worked fairly well, but in new versions, even though the message is sent as plain text, it is not the same text that I type into the editor.

For example, if I begin a line with "> " (greater-than space) to indicate a quotation, Thunderbird will add another space at the beginning. I once tried to send "-- " (dash dash space, a signature marker) in a message, only to find that Thunderbird replaced the space with a non-breaking space.

I didn't ask for that. I want the content of the message that I send be exactly what I type, nothing more, nothing less. No reflowing, no subtle character alternation. Is there a setting to disable those mis-features?

Every time I want to print an email, the default copy number on my printer menu is shown as 2.

I don't know how, when or why this change [from 1 copy to 2 copies] happened.

I wish to 'reset' the default copy number to 1, so I don't accidentally print a second copy and waste ink, etc.

When I want to print documents stored on my PC, the copy number field on the printer menu is blank, allowing me to enter the number of copies I want - so the issue appears to occur only when I print emails.
