I currently have Spectrum internet and now a new fiber optic company is installing their product in my small rural town. I would love to have them and no longer have to deal with Spectrum's outages, etc. However, they do not offer an email service and suggest that I use gmail or yahoo or other web based service. I do not like either of those and have used Thunderbird for many years. Can anyone Than tell me if it is possible to continue using Thunderbird and how will I do it? Thanks for any help. I just want to add that I am 75 years old and really don't do the technical stuff very well. I am willing to try though.Thanks, Jennifer

Any idea how I can fix issues with the subject and other fields displaying an unreadable font? If I highlight the areas, the font is readable and sometimes it is fine. See attached example - subject line should read: "Use Color-Changing Sequins to Tell Time"

Tbird tries to save a lengthy email as a draft, I assume after a certain about of time passes, but fails to do that and I have to keep acknowledging the failed draft save in order to continue.

I never save drafts and don't want it doing this. It just started doing this after the latest update. I have four accounts and it only does it with one account, although I don't write time-consuming emails with the other accounts, so maybe it would do the same.

This account has another problem, too. It doesn't save a sent email in the sent folder for this account. The other three accounts all do, and all the settings look the same. Again, this happened after the latest update. I'll have to change email clients if this isn't resolved as I need to retain copies of sent email from this account. That would be sad for me, as I've used TBird for probably 15 years or thereabouts.

I have wondered in the past, why the Inbox file (without extension) is so big. Today I moved all subfolders and remaining message from the Inbox. So there is literally NOTHING in the Inbox, but the Inbox file is still nearly 3 GB. How is this possible?!? Are there invisible files, settings, etc. saved in it? Is there a way to reduce the file size?

Also the Drafts folder/file is 1 GB but there is nothing in it. I just emptied the Junk folder and it still shows up with nearly 1 GB. This is very strange.

Please advise! Thanks!

I just reinstalled Thunderbird but all my old adresses (email contacts) are lost. Where to find them so I can import them. Also the calender details were not updated ... what to do ?

Hope somebody can help with this.

[Devtools] You have been enabled new edit and resend panel by default, its a panel won't allow users edit some fields of headers. However, in the old panel, we can do what ever we want, like modify the cookies of the new request. I wonder why you just disabled those fields? Are there any settings I can set to make those fields editable? It's a really bad design for developers who definitely will need to edit those protected headers.

Suddenly my email from yahoo (my address==> [edited] @att.net) is GOING INTO TRASH. What'up ? I made NO changes to filters.

Dear Mozilla team, how can I delete the search bar on the bottom of the page? I want to put information on top of the site, but my query lands in the bottom and I have to put all back again in order to do the search. The search bar appears on the bottom left side of any website. It is very annoying and I don't need it. Even if I want to search for something, it does not give any further information. thanks for your help!

I am using Thunderbird and love it except for a few problems that I cannot find the solutions for because my mac version 102.9 does not have the preference panel or an option menu so there is no composition panel.

I want to be able to pick a font size for sending mail and for receiving mail. And I want to be able to stop the spacing to double space when I manually hit the return key.

My iMac uses the software 12.3.1, Monterey. I do not have an "ALT" key since it is a Mac computer. I have tried "OPTION" and "CONTROL" and both at the same time but those don't change anything or give me any options.

I would appreciate some help please.

Thank you, Martha

For the past few months I've been starting to have some trouble with other sites that I go onto. For example, on Google if I try to search something that has 'a' in it, it ignores the rest of my query and searches up everything leading up to the A. Even just pressing A it's almost like it's acting as a mouse-click, but this problem only seems to be occurring on Firefox, nothing else.

What's going on?

I did a new install of Firefox on a Windows 11 Pro laptop. When I enter a password to a site, blue tear drops appear around the password. I've followed the tips to turn off carets in about:fig, but the drops persist. This issue only appears in Firefox, not Edge, Chrome, etc.

Any help in turning off this annoying feature is appreciated!

Firefox said I can edit PDFs now when I updated the browser, but all I get are annotation options. Is that really it? Annotation only (you know, like writing the the margins of a book)? Or can we actually edit (like, changing the text in a book), and if so, where are the tools?

I'm running FF 111.0.1 on a 64 bit ASUS I tried to get on Ebay.com a couple of days ago and when I used my bookmark to open the site the cursor just goes back and forth and the site never opens up. So, I figured that they were having internet issues and just kept trying. Well, it's still not working so I'm trying to find out why. I have my FF set up for the address bar to be "just that" and a separate search window in the tool bar. After trying all kinds of things that did "not" work, I changed my choice of search engine to "ebay" and when I typed ebay in the search window the sight came up with me all signed on (because I leave myself signed on) and everything seems to be working as normal. But, I don't want "ebay" for my search engine and I don't want to have to sign on to ebay that way. What has happened to cause this and how can it be fixed?

I am sorry if i have to ask again i have forgotten he answer. How to i get text messages directly with out note pad something to do in config i think but i forgot sorry and thanks

When I receive calendar invites from other users, generally on Outlook, they appear in the body of the email. This means I have no means of saving them as .ics file to import into my Google calendar and have to create my own entry, often losing important information. I therefore have to resort to logging onto my bt email account on the browser where I can get the file in its correct .ics format and save it from there to import to Google.

How do I fix this and get the invite to appear in Thunderbird email as an attachment?

I've used the Last Pass application with Firefox for years but recently Last Pass isn't auto-filling anymore. It auto-fills fine with other browsers but has stopped with Firefox within the last week or so. Any help would be appreciated.

Recent update causes all pdf links to be opened in Firefox on Android with no option to download, and no setting to choose a default behavior. They're was another person who asked a similar question and was told to use the "Share" option and then "Save as PDF" - this doesn't work. Another advise given was long-pressing on the PDF link and choosing to save target - it won't work when I am pasting the pdf link into the address bar, which is how I do it primarily. I'm stuck using the Open in External App, which opens the pdf in Google drive, then having the option of saving the file. So many unnecessary steps. Please fix.
