While checking mail in my inbox, I opened, then deleted a message (message 1). As has been happening lately, there was a significant pause between my hitting delete and the mesage going away. Then I opened another message (message 2), and I found that it had the header for message 2 displayed in the inbox, but showed the text of message 1 when opened. Scrambled messages and headers could be a big problem.

I logged onto the mail server (gmail) directly. It showed me message 2 with the correct header, and message 1 was in trash.

To fix the problem, I deleted message 2 on the server, and waited for it to vanish from the headers in my Thunderbird inbox. Then, I copied it back from trash on the server. After it downloaded to Thunderbird, everything was fine, but I wanted to alert you to the issue. Something evidently can go awry on TB's end to scramble headers and messages, and that is scary.

Running TB 147.0.1 with gmail(imap) as the mail server. I have posted twice in the past week about issues with gmail, and I am suspecting something going on at that end. My TB installation is brand new since then; the problems with logging on and staying connected that I reported only went away when I removed .esr, rebooted, and did a clean install of TB.

Please advise if this is a known problem, and if there are settings I can tweak to prevent recurrence.

Thunderbird has become crazy slow. 5-10 minutes to display an email. It's not my email server because my phone connects to and displays email fast. I have been through all the advice that I can find and cleared, checked, disabled everything that might slow it down. Still crazy slow. If I kill it and restart, I get about 3-4 minutes of reasonable performance and then it just stops. Latest Release Version V147.0.1.

i have a fast machine with 32Gb memory only 60% used, everything else runs fast

I don't want to junk Thunderbird, but it's unusable.

Help!

I just today returned to Thunderbird. I successfully inclued my 3 email accounts but two of them only have inbox and trash folders none of other folders such as drafts, spam ,deleted or trash etc. folders. My G-mail has all these folders. Do I need to delete the two accounts with the missing folders and reinstall or is there a setting I need to change. Regards Mike

Searching "Block AI enhancements" or "AI controls" doesn't give any options to disable the slop, despite the support page saying so.

I searched how to disable any random new AI features Firefox was about to cram into the browser.

I was served this support page that says I can "Block new and current AI features (single switch)"

Simply, the described feature to disable AI features isn't in the settings. I've look and tried searching for "Block AI enhancements" & "AI controls" but no luck.

Please tell me they haven't given the writing of support pages to some shitty LLM.

Hi there,

Is there a way to get checkboxes to select messages or at least a plan to get it in a future release? I saw that there has been an add-on in the past, but not maintained for some years and therefore not possible to use in newer versions. Yes, I know that you can select messages with ctrl and mouse click, but there are others in my family who are not familiar with it and reluctant to get used to it. (have used gmail for too long).

Greetings Grauer
