Hi,

the password manager (about:logins) is a very handy feature, i use all the time. However, tehre is so many pages where the FF password manager fails to suggest the correct login user name to fill in the "user" field. (Interestingly, the password fill is much more accurate).

To start with: for logging in on THIS VERY SITE for posting this question, I needed to:

  1. manually open the FF logins page
  2. enter the url "accounts.firefox.com" for search
  3. pick the entry
  4. copy the username
  5. swithc back window
  6. paste and confirm.

What's going wrong? Is my installation broken - or is this for all users the same experience?

Tks

Hi,

I just cannot find any information on how Thunderbird designers see the Threads / Threading features to be used. How would I use it ? What are my (individual) choices for configuration ? etc.

The only info I can find is : [to manage and turn on/off the feature] how to manage and turn on/off the feature.

...and of course lots unhappy user voices across the forums.


So: How would I use it ? What are my (individual) choices for configuration ? etc. Please link the respective Mozilla resource (blog, help, user design doc, ... whatever).

Ah, to start with, a description of how the feature is meant to behave, can be a start. (Sorry, I was just too stupid to find that)

Yesterday I upgraded my PC from Windows 10 to 11. Today I discovered my Local Folders are not visible. Searching tells me the messages still exist, but TB does not show the folders. I did the same upgrade a month ago on a laptop (Windows 10 Pro to 11), no problems. I didn't externally back up the messages as I am a dinosaur and don't know how, but at least they are still on the hard drive. Thousands of them though so I need the local folders back. Tried all the fixes I can find on the Community Forum, without success. Can anyone help please? Bob

I am a M365 - leaver, and working several months now with Thunderbird/LibreOffice/Nextcloud. Sometimes I'm proud of what I learned and can do with the new software. Sometimes I'm a little lost in the woods.

I'm using the add-on Quicktext to insert default html text, like a template, in some of my my emails. One of the templates is a notification for my customers to inform them the invoice they received from me is not yet paid.

In the former software I was used to click in my template on a datepicker to insert the senddate of the invoice. I tried to insert a html-datepicker. This appears in the email, but is send to the reciever as a datepciker, not as the date I choose.

My question. Is there a way to insert a datepicker in a template like Quicktext, or is there a better add-on for this goal?

When an email that is received from a sender that has previously been marked as spam then Thunderbird activates the "beep" notification. When I tab to Thunderbird to see the email by then it has already been moved by Thunderbird to the Junk folder. This is quite frustrating as it unnecessarily interrupts workflow just to see that it was junk.

I would like it not to notify on messages that go to the Junk folder. Is there some way I can get this to work.

The newly added PWA support is neat and was much needed. However there is an issue with the PWA icons under Windows, in the Start menu. In the all programs tab the icons are correctly the icons of their respective websites, but if the icon is pinned as a tile it switches to the default firefox icon making it hard to tell them apart at the first glance. The issue is present under Windows 10 and also Windows 11 How to recreate: Win10: -add a tab to the taskbar as a PWA -open Start menu -pin the PWA Win11: -install ExplorerPatcher and change the useless clunky win11 Start to the almighty and productive win10 Start -add a tab to the taskbar as a PWA -open Start menu -pin the PWA

Is there any way to fix the icons of pinned PWAs?
