Hello!

I am using Thunderbird 140.9.1esr (64-bit) on a Ubuntu 24.04 system. Every time I restart Thunderbird, it reverts to a little used Gmail account as the default account. I have several accounts, but my main email account is a MS365 account. I reset the setting, but every time it is restarted, the default goes back to Gmail. I have tried everything that I've found online, but cannot correct this behaviour.

Do you have any suggestions or assistance?

Many thanks!

I've tried everything. Nothing seems to work.

The new Profiles menu option will not go away. I have no use for it, will never use it and I accidentally select it since they stuck it right next to bookmarks. Pretty poor decision.

If there is not way to remove it then after 30 years I will be dropping Firefox.

I am an 82 year old senior. I am not technologically adept. I have a Samsung cell phone - android and a computer I use and want only Mozilla Firefox and Yahoo.

My problem is: I do not know how to get "google" out of my phone and computer. Until yesterday I was able to use "Chat GPT" directly. Today, when I click on the "chat GPT" icon, GOOGLE PLAY STORE DEMANDS I SIGN IN

My question is: HOW CAN I GET COMPLETELY RID OF GOOGLE FROM MY PHONE AND COMPUTER AND USE ONLY MOZILLA FIREFOX AND YAHOO?

Since having my Samsung android "mended" I've lost the Collections.

I save quite a lot of tabs for future reference or just as a keep for ideas, holidays etc.

I've read the 'answers' in a number of forums/Google and so on, but they don't address the problem fully - they all state the obvious: click on this, scroll down to that - we know, that's why we're asking where the devil have they gone?!

I would like very much if *someone* who isn't a bot to answer this please. I'm sure I speak for many of us who are fed up with stock answers. If you don't know, find out. That's your job surely?

Successful OAuth2 login doesn't auto-return to Thunderbird Android; app remains logged in as if in browser

Hello everyone,

Summary: I am trying to set up my gmail account on my new phone, but after (what appears to be) successfully logging in, the Thunderbird for Android application does not pull me back out of gmail. Instead, I remain logged in to my gmail account as if in a browser. As you can see from my photos, it takes me to the point where I am truly into my gmail inbox, but I am checking it as if in some sort of outdated browser and not as if in Thunderbird. I am stuck; sitting in my gmail account, logged in; able to view email, check and change account settings, even get onto other parts of my google account. Unfortunately, I cannot find a way to get back out of my gmail account that returns me to the Thunderbird for Android accounts setup process with a successfully login to gmail. I end up having to hit exit or to close the app, which causes the account setup to fail.

Expected Behavior: Open the Thunderbird for Android App. Setup new account (gmail which produces an automatically detected OAuth 2.0 method). Give login credentials, gain access to gmail, and then be auto-redirected back to accounts setup process in Thunderbird for Android with full IMAP + SMTP access to my gmail.

Problematic Behavior: Same as above, except I am stuck as if in browser mode. When I exit and thus am returned back to the accounts setup page, I receive a failed notice (see photo). Immediately afterward, I tried to setup an account for the same gmail address on an old android phone and successfully logged in as expected. How do I get back to the main accounts dialog with a success?

Notes: The new phone is a linux-based phone (Furilabs FLX1s) on which I have found Android apps to function without hiccup. It seems like In fact, the Thunderbird for Android app itself seems to function fine. It doesn't crash. It allows me to navigate through the app menus flawlessly.


Thanks for the help!

Hello, the address auto-completion is working in the desktop version but not in the Android app. When I start typing an email address, no suggested contacts appear. I haven’t given the app permission to access my phone contacts, but it should still suggest addresses I’ve previously emailed or received messages from. I’m surprised there aren't more questions about this topic — maybe it's just an issue with my device? Thanks for your support. Best regards.
