In the last 24 hours all messages in the "Inbox" (new and old) no longer have a "From" email address and default to my email address, at the bottom of the screen is the following message "A unique identity matching the From address was not found. The message will be sent using the current From field and settings from identity Marcus Relton <my email address>". These emails once opened continue to be "unread", the option to typical options of a new email such as; delete are not available and they appear as if drafts. This is only occurring in the "Inbox", if mail is moved to another folder within the server folders or local folders the email appears and functions are normal. I read the following thread https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1457302, which only references updating the Inbox Flag Properties, however I do not have this option. See images of emails and properties for reference. (I have redacted my email address)

OS is Windows 11 Thunderbird is up to date as well. I have made no changes in the last 24 hours with the exception of adding a new "Tag" for email identification.

I would appreciate any help. Thanks Kristen P

Why is it that sometimes I cannot use edit > paste as quotation. Sometimes I can then simply paste the text but sometimes not. I can't paste at all, that is. If I can't paste at all, but I paste into Notepad, then I can copy that plain text into TBird and it shows up. Different format but I don't really care about that.

This has been going on for years thru many TBird versions. And I cannot see any pattern in when pasting or pasting-as-quotation fails. It seems completely random.

Is there anything I can do to fix the problem? or better troubleshoot?

Thanks, Jeanne (Windows 11, TBird ver. 128.7.1esr (32-bit))

Since the last update for Firefox browser (Version 138.0.3 64-bit), I have been unable to access my default search engine which is startpage (https://www.startpage.com/). This is very annoying. I checked my extensions, and the extension is not disabled. I also haven't inadvertently blocked startpage. So this appears to either be a coincidence and issue with the startpage going down, or Mozilla Firefox have blocked the site. Looking for advice to resolve the access issue.

In the article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux#w_install-firefox-deb-package-for-debian-based-distributions-recommended

https://packages.mozilla.org/apt leads to 404, not a Debian software repository / archive.

Step 4 (is broken)

Next, add the Mozilla APT repository to your sources list:

echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.asc] https://packages.mozilla.org/apt mozilla main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.list > /dev/null

Since the last update, my bookmarks sidebar does not open automatically when I open Firefox. A minor annoyance, perhaps, but an annoyance nonetheless, especially since it used to work until Firefox monkeyed around with it unnecessarily.

Every help I've found gives the same answer: Make sure the Bookmarks Toolbar is checked "Always Show." Well, it is checked, it was never unchecked, except that I tried unchecking and rechecking it in the vain hope that it would jumpstart something.

Is there any way to fix this? Or is it cursed forever?

I thought Thunderbird was free to use. It's asking me to donate and I can't access my current emails from my account. If this is free than why on earth do I HAVE to donate to get access to my emails. That is not right. Please help me.

Thank you Malcolm

I see it as Thunderbird hijacking the resources of my computer to run Firefox and take me to the donation website. I'm fine with the request for money in the Thunderbird screen, I can navigate away from that. Don't open programs other than Thunderbird before I require them.
