Using the latest version (127.0.2; installed from Play store today, on a fresh Android install), any non-English site I visit I get the nagging popup asking me if I want to translate.

'Never translate this site' works, and 'Never translate Dutch' (and presumably other languages as well) too (so at least I can workaround it, but 'Always offer to translate' off will still nag about translating sites, so is bugged.

And I still have the translate button taking up space in the URL bar. How do I remove it?

As 99% of users hate threading, myself included, why don't you just change the default to no threading?

I have looked at a lot of the answers to previous questions on this subject and none of them work. One has a supposed video to help but that relates to Gmail and is not understandable. Perhaps you want us to all use Gmail. I have looked the article "Message threading in Thunderbird - keep messages grouped by conversation" but that is useless and the suggested method of stopping threading doesn't work.

Please change the default!!

I use the Mozilla Thunderbird email program and have just been overwhelmed by the number of "bookmarks" appearing under the "Bookmarks Toolbar." I don't want these additional bookmarks that I did NOT select. Moving them one by one is tedious--and I think new bookmarks are added to the toolbar if I delete any. How do I stop this? Is there a way to eliminate the added bookmarks in mass rather than singly? Thanks,

Just started using Thunderbird. I notice a feature which I really like, the ability to cancel an email after hitting send. today I tried it for the first time. But the email still sent and shows in sent folder.

What is the purpose of that cancel button, if it doesn't work? Also, is there a known time period where you have to be quick enough to hit cancel for it to work!?

115 continues to try my patience, but inflicting threading upon me goes beyond annoyance and into the reign of seriously disrupting my ability to use Thunderbird.

I've read some stuff here that I don't really understand. Is there any way to TOTALLY turn off threading for any and all incoming or stored emails? I found View ==> Sort By ==> Threads seems to have an option for "All" but that can't be unchecked.

If anyone can provide any help, I'll be quite grateful!

Hi All,

Long time user of TB. Have worked with a number of signatures over the years. I occasionally have the below problem. This time it has become quite frustrating.

I have pictures in my email signature.

I have recently moved folders for all of my data. I get it. I need to update the path information for the HTML (built in MS Word) file. I have done that.

The signature is there... the images are not. The borders around the images are there, the images are not.

I do not know what is blocking the images from coming through.

I have the same issure on another computer that I use. Though I have never been abale to ge the pictures to load on that system. Borders only.

Image below with borders, no images

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you

When I try to log into my AMEX account with FF, nothing happens. The screen refreshes itself, but no log in, and no error or other kind of message. I have entered my User Name and Password manually and using Auto fill, no success.

This problem was posted in January 2020 and I have tried all of the solutions. I have cleared cookies and cache for ALL sites and cleared saved logins for Amex. Still does not work. I have tried logged in and incognito mode. Still doesn't work. I can log in on Chrome with no problems.

It was working fine a few days ago.

Thank you so much for help!

You can't change Firefox keybinds from within settings. Please can someone direct me to a resource that details each step in achieving this, without need to install an extension. Currently "Ctrl + Win + Left Arrow/Right Arrow" moves between tabs for me, however I use vertical tabs, so would like to use "Ctrl + Win + Up Arrow/Down Arrow" instead.

Under "Settings" > "Files and Applications" > "Downloads", I have selected "Save files to [Downloads]" and I have set the tick mark in the box ("Always ask you where to save files"). See screenshot.

This setting used to work fine for many a year. However, some months ago - and ongoing - Firefox does no longer ask me where to save a downloaded file. This is very annoying indeed!

How can I fix this?

I am using Windows 10, Firefox 124.0 (64-bit).

Hi An association creates an event in ProtonCalendar and designs me as a participant. So I received an invitation, nice. Reading the message I have a button "Accept" in which there is a "Send a response to the author". When I click on that button, the event is correctly added to my personal calendar and it is said that a response has been sent. But, the response is not in my "Sent" directory and the association never receive the response. What am I missing ? Is there a way to get that working?

Thanks in advance
