Problems began with AOL mail, when I tried to send replies. I kept receiving repeated failures connecting with valid password. It seemed I could receive mail and send mail to trash or junk. I finally tried deleting and re-adding AOL mail, but now lost all folders but inbox and trash (all still available through FireFox browser though). I decided to just delete AOL from Thunderbird, Suddenly afterward, without touching anything related to Hotmail or Gmail, opening Thunderbird does nothing but clock trying to open Hotmail or Gmail inboxes. I have had no problems with those two, until today. I even turned off McAfee scanning to see if antivirus may be the cause suddenly today. I am at a loss as to what to do further. I can still get all my mail through the browser, but having all 3 mails in Thunderbird was convenient!

Is there a possibility of opening links through notifications on Firefox Android? It feels weird to get a notification from a site and when I click it it doesn't open the website.

Thanks for the replies!

Hello, It has been more than 2-weeks since Firefox cannot access www.google.com issuing the error page : "Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue", and the following advanced data :

Websites prove their identity via certificates. Firefox does not trust this site because it uses a certificate that is not valid for www.google.com. The certificate is only valid for the following names: www.google.com.eg, *.google.com.eg, google.com.eg

when I am on a video, picture..., and right clicked and executed "OPEN LINK IN NEW TAB", I would STAY on the tab I am on and continue to "open" new tabs. That way, I could open lots of new tabs from the page I am on.

Now, it TRANSFERS ME TO THE TAB I JUST OPENED and I have to "go back".

What changed with rel 87.0? How can I go back to "staying on my tab" I am on? I don't see any "options".

I am new to Thunderbird world after being an Outlook user for nearly 25 years. I am liking it - especially the ability to customize the look and feel. That said, it's not for the faint at heart (my dad would not look kindly on the method for many customizations).

So, I have been able to update the userChrome.css file to allow for my own flavor of my mail folders.

One thing I canot get sorted though is what the syntax is for configuring the email account folder entries in the folder pane.

Right now, they all appear bold. Regardless of new mail, unread mail, any mail, etc. Some are blue (not consistent though from what I can see as to why), most are my theme default (white).

How do I change the font/display settings for these entries?

I've managed to sort out my other folder appears settings in userChrome.css, but cannot find anything for the account folder (apologies if I'm not referring to it in it's proper/common name - I'm new to Thunderbird).

In the attached image: - ignore the white box, I have that sorted. - turqouise box: why is this blue? - yellow boxes: why are they yellow?

How do I set the stylings for these items and more specifically, what are they called and what are their syntax names in css?

Thanks, House

I really like firefox but have to shut it down to add a new password if I don't use one of yours which are too long and complicated. And I don't think you need to have my passwords. Typical firefox password:

4ut693zdfcp049stev5dd679*. To long and too complicated. And does not give me choice to make my own. It is like a rabid pitbull.

No thanks. I understand this dreadful thing is imbedded? How can I get it to go away? Susan Taylor

I have collected a number of bookmarks which I now want to put into a single folder. I am having trouble selecting the bookmarks to move them all at once into the folder. Please advise.

As a new Thunderbird user (and old outlook user), I tried to tidy my gmail folders up.

Basically I dragged my important gmail folders to the default Inbox above the italic (Gmail). All worked fine until the next time I opened Thunderbird when I found the the folders that I had moved were gone/

I have looked in the imap folder on my C drive and they are not there either. To add to this they are no longer in Gmail. Seems that the are lost forever? 

However if I do a search within Thunderbird, the folder name appears on the left hand side with an email count that seems to reflect what's in the folder.

There are some important emails for me and I would like to recover them.

Is this possible and how ?

Appreciate any help

Is there a way to navigate back to my Homepage in Firefox For Android instead of having to click the "back button" a 100 times??? Cannot find any help articles on this specific subject. Thank you in advance for your help.

Recently some of my email, particularly from Apple and Prosper, appears with every character replaced with a d or weird punctuation. The message itself is intact, as I can view the text if I switch to simple HTML or plain text. I assume it's corruption in Thunderbird's UTF settings, but I'm not sure how to fix it. This is a new computer with a clean installation of Thunderbird 78.9.1.

Here is an example of what I'm seeing.

Either I'm a dork or the instructions that I have found are not very clear. I have been trying for several days to transfer my settings from my desktop to a new laptop. I have gone to the %appdata%\mozilla\firefox\profiles page until I'm blue in the face. I transferred a directory called "m80s2e9e.default" from the profiles directory on the desktop to the %appdata%\mozilla\firefox\profiles directory on the laptop but keep getting "Firefox profile cannot be loaded" error. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Dale Webb

I just finished reading other people complaining about the popu to "purge deleted items"

I concur! in fact I find this so disgusting I am considering leaving thunderbird as a email client.

I reallly love that linux, mac, and windows ...no matter the OS I can get a same client, similiar experience (I use different laptops when as a tech repairing servers, to machines.

I have even myself had data lost, personal communications with family who died, things I quite cared about and (yes I have backups) but this push to make the client work better by limiting data, imposing order, and cleanliness is moronic..dangerous, and I do see that the quotas and options for data do not really work, this merely seems to help performance and keep most recent email but absolutely ruins any real longterm archiving (email is not meant to be longterm, or a "archive" ...I know I say this too) maybe we need to adjust software for the way people want it? the way people live? and not how we designate it to be used? (you do not like ,,write your own, I know).. if this trend to increase performance by cutting and crippling old email (what if I want 40 gig of email ?) .. maybe a better interface for holding, packaging and backing up, and restoring email?? heck a schedular to bump it out to google drive? I recently found a proggie that does this for my cellphone, contacts, sms, options, apps, which apps,,, gotta say that in thunderbird would be amazing? (restore from cloud backup, backup to cloud)?? I love thunderbird and hope some development can happen to smooth this out? Thankyou! (I used to try and use the gmail and yahoo folders like this also and leave only copies ,,,)

want to use wa on my laptop

I know this is going to push the boundaries on the "stupid question" meter, but I've looked everywhere I know to look. I have a website that I completely trust (inasmuch as one can), and they've recently made some changes to their site that requires the site to reload for an animation. The problem is that FF interrupts with the banner (see image) about reloading and my only l option is the "Allow" or "Dismiss". One requires me to just keep pressing the "Allow" button, while the other stops me from seeing the reload. Is there a way I can stop this?

Thanks in advance, Dan
