I have looked at some of the comments about Firefox automatically opening pdf docs. Myu concern is twofold. Most importantly the password in the doc is somehow being overriden; that is a severe security issuen for me. Destroys the whole concept of security. Makes me very uncomfortable and may discontnue using Forefox after more than 15 years. Secondly this caught me by surprise; it only occurred for the first time this morning. How can i overcome this to prevent Firefox from performing merely as a browser?

There's a particular couple of links in Gmail, from a specific email, which sends links I need to go to, and they will not open, yet gives an error message. This has been happening for years. The sender sends these links to all members, and I'm the only one who cannot open them. 2 decades ago I was able to open them.

I accidentally clicked on the link that says that I want to have Mozilla Firefox as my default browser. I do not want this ... please explain how I can stop this process. Thank You!

Hi... I have switched from Google to Thunderbird and am using my old Gmail address: viewegm11@gmail.com on Thunderbird with not problem. Before moving over, I imported all of the email files over to Thunderbird...(old emails and the like).

Now Gmail has sent me a notice saying that I have no more space on the Google server and that I soon won't be able to send or receive emails via Google. Does this apply to Google only or to Thunderbird, as well?

In sum: I no longer log into Gmail or Chrome at all... I am using Thunderbird ONLY to Send and Receive emails at: viewegm11@gmail.com [on Thunderbird].

So the Question arises: Does the warning from Google that tells me That I won't be able to use Gmail anymore apply to my use of the viewegm11@gmail.com address over here on Thunderbird? Or am I safe in choosing to continue using my original Gmail address on Thunderbird...in spite of the warning from Google.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Thank you very much! Martin Vieweg viewegm11@gmail.com

The system was working fine. The next day, when starting Thunderbird (TB, the status line shows logging in to server but loops; no errors or messages, Thunderbird is 'locked out' spinning. I see the normal INBOX page, but logging in never completes. NO CHANGES were made to TB accounts or settings. I have re-installed TB, re-booted, but no change. I cannot check/change any of the accounts or do any further 'debugging' because TB is spinning. The server login is fine because Webmail can be used. Internet connection is fine, because browser works. 1. How can I stop TB from trying to login at start up? 2. What could/would cause this behaviour?

Any suggestions much appreciated.

I receive messages ok - but can t send. Malwarebytes is my antivirus software.

First time it happened - took laptop tp local computer repair shop -they told me they turned off 'VPN" and it startedf sending email.

Then stopped again - it seemed after Thunderbird update. Took back to shop - person that fixed it was working there any longer.VPN is off Thunderbird version is 140.12

I am receiving the following error message when trying to send email through the Thunderbird client: Send Message Error "Sending of the message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: <tbishop@typewire.com>: Sender address rejected: not owned by user tbishop@typewire.com. Please check the message recipient ("email") and try again."

I have checked the outgoing mail server (smtp) and tried several reconfigurations to get it working and ensure compliance with the ISP's configuration requirements - nothing works. Please advise...

saved payment method still work and autofill when a payment page is up but managing all saved payments within settings is impossible as the list is not populated - please see screenshot link text

I was able to successfully set up my gmail account, but there's a problem with my iCloud (me.com/mac.com) account. This account is accessible on my iPhone and also on my laptop. I don't really know where to begin troubleshooting this. By clicking on Manual configuration I can see Thunderbird's best guess, listed below:

Protocol: IMAP Hostname: imap.mail.me.com Port: 993 Connection security: SSL/TLS Authentication method: Normal password Username: johnwgordon Hostname: smtp.mail.me.com Port: 587 Connection security: STARTTLS Authentication method: Normal password Username: johnwgordon@maccom

When I full screen in YouTube, Firefox makes a Fade in animation. Can I disable it and make the default animation works?

Note: I notice that Firefox on Linux doesn't have this feature, I don't know why this feature is only for Windows.

System Information: Surface laptop has Windows 11.
