I have been having with YouTube for a couple of days. It asks to turn off ad blockers. I have done so and it still requests to turn ad blockers and still won't allow viewing. YouTube works on other browsers.

I am sure YouTube is playing games but can you help?

I have recently switched to Thunderbird from Outlook and have found that some types of email are not visible in my Thunderbird inbox. I can see them in my email provider's webmail and they worked fine in Outlook but they aren't appearing in Thunderbird. I have tried adding the sender's email to my address book and telling Thunderbird not to block messages if the sender is in my address book but that hasn't helped. The two types that I have noticed are: i) messages from a groups.io mailing list that I'm a member of and ii) the daily digest from Nextdoor (a local social media website). However, if I search for the subject or sender then the email can be found by the search in Thunderbird so it seems to be there but just not visible. I have set up a global inbox and have various sub-folders of my inbox which I use rules to divert emails to. Any suggestions gratefully received.

For months now legitimate emails are being sent to spam on several accounts. I check the Gmail webpage. They are all listed as regular mail there. They hit Thunderbird and are sent on to spam. I whitelisted them on my ISP mail provider. Even email from them goes to spam. I've checked the adaptive junk mail log and non of the addresses are in there. I've reset the adaptive settings several times. I've uninstalled and reinstalled TB from scratch 5 times now. Once after a full wipe of the drive and install of Windows 11. I've marked them as not junk. They go back to the spam folder. I've manually moved them back into the inbox and after a minute or two they are back in the spam folder. I can't find anywhere to tell TB that these are not spam. Pulling out what's left of my hair here. Anyone have any advice?

Hello: I have just set up a new desktop PC. Have downloaded/installed Thunderbird email program (used previously with old PC). Entered manual configuration using Spectrum server settings, user name (email) for Incoming Server and Outgoing Server. Had to attempt to process manually several times, and then suddenly everything popped up....all my previous emails were there, although my address book was gone. EVERYTHING worked yesterday (10/18) from that point through shut down later in the evening. Suddenly today, I start rebuilding my address book, and was trying to send message. Processing message and "sending" was taking very long, and finally error message pops up saying "Message can't be sent due to Outgoing Server timing out." Incoming Server and receiving messages appears to be fine...no issues there...successfully receiving emails. I've gone back and checked my settings on Outgoing Server...they are same as I entered yesterday.... Although the port listed 587 has a "default" port number listed to the right as "465" ..... the number of the port and the default (993) on the Incoming Server match. Is this the problem? There's no way to change/edit the 465. Is this a systemic issue? I see several other posters with problems with Outgoing Server/stmp issues. Judy Gamble

Subject: [Thunderbird email client] Composing email: Clicking Options > Delivery Status Notification Does Not Work At All!!!

Good day from Singapore,

Today is 13 November 2023 Monday Singapore Time 7 PM.

Recently I have installed Thunderbird email client version 115.4.1 (64-bit) SUPERNOVA in Windows 11 Home version 22H2 in my home desktop computer.

I have numerous Gmail email account(s). I do not know whether GMAIL is using Postfix or EXIM Mail Transfer Agent (MTA).

I have composed and SENT emails with the Subject: "Singaporean man who previously attempted to contest in the 2023 Singapore Presidential Elections has applied for refugee status/political asylum in the UK on 23 Oct 2023" to the following international news media outlets, mainly British, American and Hong Kong:

[01] BBC News (UK)

[02] The Guardian (UK)

[03] The Observer (UK)

[04] The Daily Telegraph (UK)

[05] The Sunday Telegraph (UK)

[06] The Washington Post (USA)

[07] The New York Times (USA)

[08] CNN (USA)

[09] Yahoo News

[10] Wired.com (USA)

[11] Vice.com (USA)

[12] Mothership (Singapore)

[13] Must Share News (Singapore)

[14] The Independent (Singapore)

[15] Goodyfeed (Singapore)

[16] Sky News (UK)

[17] The Times (UK)

[18] The Independent (UK)

[19] Channel 4 News (UK)

[20] Daily Mail (UK)

[21] The Sun (UK)

[22] The Mirror (UK)

[23] South China Morning Post (Hong Kong)

[24] Financial Times (UK)

[25] Reuters (UK) - I am going to send email soon, but it seems Reuters don't have email addresses, only contact submission forms on its official website

[26] Agence France-Press (France) - I am going to send email soon, but it seems AFP don't have email addresses, only contact submission forms on its official website

Before sending each email, I will click Options > Delivery Status Notification in Thunderbird email client. I will ENSURE this option is clicked, besides clicking Return Receipts.

However, I have NEVER received any Delivery Status Notification for the emails that I have sent. Not even once. Though I have received Return Receipts, but they are very FEW.

Questions:

[1] Is there a bug with Thunderbird email client?

---OR---

[2] Did the Singapore Government have unfettered access and absolute control of all my email accounts? Were my outgoing emails to the above international news media outlets intercepted and deleted by the Singapore Government before they reach their recipients? Hence the above-mentioned international news media outlets have NEVER received my emails???

Many years ago, I think it was during General Election 2011 in Singapore, I think it was Mr. Tan Jee Say, who told me that the Singapore Government has secret/covert access to all the email accounts of all Singaporeans.

Why is the Singapore Government so scared to let the whole world know that Singapore Citizen Mr. Teo En Ming has flown from Singapore to London (transit in Shanghai, China) on 22 Oct 2023 Sunday and claimed refugee status / political asylum in the United Kingdom on 23 Oct 2023?

After the British Government has fully paid for my free Singapore Airlines SQ321 flight (because I only have about/approximately SGD$2400 in my bank accounts on 23 Oct 2023) and sent me back to Singapore from London Heathrow Airport (I was transferred from London Gatwick Airport to London Heathrow Airport) on a 12-hour flight on 23 Oct 2023, I saw someone (not me) had created a forum thread/topic at Hardwarezone Singapore Eat-Drink-Man-Woman (EDMW) forums with the title, something like:

"BREAKING Teo En Ming has claimed refugee in the UK on 23 Oct 2023..."

However, after 5 pages of forum discussion (I think), the administrators or moderators of Hardwarezone Singapore forums had QUICKLY deleted the above forum thread/topic. Maybe due to pressure from the Singapore Government. Maybe due to pressure from the Singapore Government.

I didn't see the actual forum thread/topic itself. What I saw was the Google Cache of the deleted forum topic. But now the Google Cache is also gone, I think.

Why is the Singapore Government so scared to let the whole world know that Singapore Citizen Mr. Teo En Ming has flown from Singapore to London (transit in Shanghai, China) on 22 Oct 2023 Sunday and claimed refugee status / political asylum in the United Kingdom on 23 Oct 2023?

Or is it a bug with Thunderbird email client that I have never received any Delivery Status Notification for the emails that I have sent out to the above international news media outlets?

Or was there a problem with the GMAIL SMTP servers?? Problem with Postfix MTA? Problem with Exim MTA? Problem with Sendmail MTA?

Why is the Singapore Government so scared to let the whole world know that Singapore Citizen Mr. Teo En Ming has flown from Singapore to London (transit in Shanghai, China) on 22 Oct 2023 Sunday and claimed refugee status / political asylum in the United Kingdom on 23 Oct 2023?

Mr. Teo En Ming has previously applied for political asylum / refugee status at the [1] United Nations Refugee Agency UNHCR Bangkok (21-22 March 2017), [2] in Taiwan on 5 Aug 2019 and [3] in Australia (application by email through the Australian Embassy in Kuala Lumpur) on 10 March 2020. But they were never reported in the news anywhere at all.

There is widespread news coverage on Amos Yee, who had offended Singapore Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew 8 years ago in 2015. Mr. Teo En Ming had also offended Singapore Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew 16 years ago in 2007, many many years before Amos Yee did. So I don't understand why the Singapore Government is so scared to have widespread news coverage of Mr. Teo En Ming. Why can't the Singapore Government let millions and billions of people know Mr. Teo En Ming???????

Mr. Turritopsis Dohrnii Teo En Ming Targeted Individual in Singapore

Every day when I come back to my mac and firefox is open, it will not respond to any new web address. I can put in any web site and it resolves the full page name, but does not open any site. I have to close firefox completely, which is a pain when I have multiple pages open. It does not matter if I have one or tabs in use, I am forced to close out of firefox completely in order for it to work again. This has been going on for years for me with firefox through multiple versions, multiple MacOS, and multiple Mac systems.
