Above 70-75k characters, text input fields on any site have a ton of input lag -- like, I have to wait 10s after I type a sentence for the sentence to finish slowly updating letter by letter. I've tested across multiple sites, and in Private mode (to confirm it's not caused by extensions, none of which are allowed in Private mode).

I also tried setting `accessibility.force_disabled=1` as suggested here and here, but that didn't help (and yes, I restarted). Disabling hardware acceleration didn't help either.

I have configured 2 mailboxes in Thunderbird sent some test mails to see if it is working. Now everything works great, but somewhere there is a mail which Thunderbird tries to send out. Unfortunately it looks like the mail is created with mail account 1 and Thunderbird tries to send it with mail account 2. Of course the mail server denies to sent the mail, because the mail address is unknown to him. I checked all outboxes in Thunderbird and at the webinterfaces of the 2 mailboxes and found nothing. I removed all mail boxes and smtp configurations from Thunderbird and uninstalled it. After new installation I still facing the issue. Where can I find the mail Thunderbird is trying to send?

I don't have the words to describe what's happening here. Please see screenshot. Frequently when using Firefox- since the latest update, it's up-to-date on up-to-date Macbook Sonoma 14.4- this starts happening, when I move around my cursor, the images get all funky, it seems to be pulling in visual information from multiple tabs. Restarting the app clears it out, until the next time it happens. Any thoughts on this?

I have noticed a bug with how the Firefox icon appears when launched in the Windows 11 taskbar when the never group option is enabled. When Firefox is launched and is the only application open in the taskbar, there is no label present next to the icon like other programs have when launched. There is the little line underneath the icon though indicating it is launched but that is it. As soon as I open another application though, the label will also appear for Firefox. This is only a minor annoyance but is definitely as bug at least for me and should be pretty easy to fix. I will attach screenshots of the behavior. In the first screenshot, you can see that Firefox is open but has no Text label like it is supposed to. The second screenshot is as soon as I open a second application.

I am on Windows 11 Home 23H2 Build 22631.2792 Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22681.1000.0 Firefox Version: 120.0.1

Since a week or two, Thunderbird displays all emails, in all accounts, in all boxes (in, sent, drafts, deleted, etc) as dating from "June". An email received 1 March 2024 is dated 01.06.2024; the previous email (of 29 February 2024) is displayed as 29.06.2024 (see screenshots). I have emails form "31.06.2024", "31.06.2023", "31.06.2022", and so on. It continues through all emails, down to the oldest one I am keeping of 25 October 2013, displayed as 25.06.2013.

When I open a mail in a separate tab or window, the same 'June' date is there. The correcte data information is not lost: I can still correctly sort my emails on date and when I forward an email, it contains the corrected date.

The problem persisted after update to the latest version (115.9.0). Mac Monterrey 12.7.3.

In the "Find / Search" menu, files are concatenated by subject. This leads to incorrect date ordering, so sometimes impossible or very difficult to locate messages. It would be helpfull if we could de-activate this concatenated view in search option, as we can do in the main Inbox window, showing all messages by date only, and not concatenated by Subject.

Thanks for your attention. [removed email and phone# from support forum]

All of a sudden a number of emails are arriving with the correct subject line but the sender is listed as HotelMaven, with whom I do correspond. The emails are forwarded from my billsteiner@duck.com address. The sender, when viewed with BlueMail on my phone and tablet, is correct, so this is a Thunderbird issue.

Also, at the same time, Thunderbird began asking me for my password every time I open it. This has never happened before.

My Thunderbird email is bill@kikibobo.xyz. You can also reach me at wssteiner@yahoo.com. Thanks for your help. Bill Steiner

Hello,

For an unknown reason, my firefox sometimes is really slow to startup.

It can take up to 10 minutes before the webpage start to load. My hardware is not that bad. I try to use the "performance" to capture the issue : https://share.firefox.dev/3x2rgHj I don't know if there is something to see because, the tool is also slow.

It happens on 3 different computers on linux.

I try to disable all extensions and without telemetry but nothing change. I'm reporting the problem now but it's much older

If you have a idea to fix this issue please share because it's really annoying.

Hello, since today I am experiencing instant crash on start up. It was perfectly fine yesterday (10 hours ago). Even attempting to open safe mode when offered also instant crash. Firefox is currently unuseable.

I believe the recent 124.0.1 is the issue ? Can this be confirmed, where can I check if this issue is widespread & the ETA to an eventual fix ?

Until just a couple of days ago, I was able to compose a new email with Thunderbird on any of the six accounts I have on my Win10 desktop. Suddenly, the nice blue "New Email" button at the top of my folders has VANISHED and there is no way to create a new email! I can reply to emails, but I can't compose a new one!

I don't know if a fix is in the works, but for now: how do I downgrade to a previous version that I can use to send new mail? I'm at a standstill here!

Within the last few days, I've noticed I'm losing functionality in certain online apps through the Firefox browser.

When I'm on Instagram, I can't check direct messages: the function stalls out without resolving.

In Gmail, I'm unable to embed an image in an email. I can attach it like normal, but the embed button doesn't respond.

In Starry AI, I'm unable to use any menu options at all, I'm stuck at being logged into the account and can't logout, check my settings, or request help. I receive this message: "Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information)"

Hi,

I'm not sure what I did but I can no longer see the headers of any of my messages. Setting headers to all doesn't change anything. All I see are the columns at the top, then the message immediately. I don't see the To: CC: etc.

I'm pretty sure I accidentally flipped a setting but I'm not sure which one. If this seems familiar to someone, let me know!

Scrolling in Firefox is causing any webpage to scroll many lines at once with a single click, and it seems to be exclusively happening to Firefox, as every other application scrolls normally. I have tried searching here and elsewhere for a solution, and I have tried to change about:config settings based on the recommendations I could find to no avail. I have also tried to refresh Firefox and have used Troubleshoot Mode, but those too have not worked. I have no clue as to what could have caused this, as I have not been messing with any settings prior to this.

Hello,

Been using Thunderbird for years without any issues. Since yesterday it simply keeps freezing after startup and checking email. OS OpenSuSE Tumbleweed, Thunderbird 115.8.1.

- Cleaned up the inbox - Started in safe mode - removed add-ons

Nothing worked. Thunderbird simply freezes and has to be killed. In essence it has become unworkable.

What I notice is, I can start Thunderbird without being connected to the internet. It does not freeze. As soon as it starts pulling emails, it then freezes again.

Any hints?

Thank you in advance.
