Thunderbird corrupts the folder column structure when used with XNote++

In Thunderbird (v. 102.9.0), I have all folders set to the same column structure. I have used the add-on XNote++ for a long time and it used to work fine. Now, however, when I open Thunderbird or even activate the window after coming out of "sleep" mode, either (1) the XNote++ column is moved from the extreme right of the window (where I want it) to the extreme left; or (2) the column disappears altogether. This happens only for the first folder that is active. If I switch to another folder, the columns are correct. So each time I have to go through the process of copying another folder's column structure to the corrupted folder.

I don't know whether this is a result of a new release of Thunderbird or some change in XNote++, but it didn't used to act this way. Any suggestions?

Using Thunderbird 102.9.0 (64-bit), Windows 10

To clarify what I mean in my title: I've set up a message filter that is supposed to search in the body that contains a word. I know the word is in the body, but yet the filter is not being triggered.

I have tried a different word that has spaces before and after and it seems to work, so I guess that's the problem, but how can I allow thunderbird to work when there's different characters before or after the word also?

I have a new laptop so needed to install an adblock. The search results page gave many choices. However, no matter which one I clicked on it said this page is not available in your region. Now how is that possible seeing as on my previous laptop and in the same region I could install the add on? I have had to use a VPN to install the adblocker. Please explain how regions prevent the installation and why it happens. Firefox is universal or so I thought.

I was totally blindsided by the changes imposed by the switch to this feature. Having now read up on it I can understand the need for it, but IMHO the implementation is... not optimal. Why do we have to have two "overflow" icons? Why could the two functions (traditional overflow list and new Extensions Management) not be maintained under a single button/function as before? (I don't care which symbol would be used, but splitting up the access to these functions? Come on!) AND why can we no longer order the items on the new overflow menu the way we want? --at least, I haven't found a way to move them around. Further, when extensions say that they "Can't read and change data on this site", does that mean that the extension is broken, nonfunctional, locked out, etc., or are we required to do something to restore it to functionality? -And if so, do we have to do this for every extension, on every site? Let me just say, not a huge fan at this point. Ugh.

Hello, I've been dealing with this issue for some time now, but I don't know when it started. One day pages started being displayed with Impact as my body copy, but I never changed anything about my fonts in Firefox. I thought it was something with my system fonts, but I've since uninstalled copies of Impact on my Windows 10 PC. I'm not sure where else to look, but Impact is a difficult font to read as it's super bold & condensed. Makes reading body copy, especially small type, hard to navigate.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance!

I used to be able to have a few months of incoming emails in Thunderbird. As updates came in, my settings got all messed up and I am lucky to have a few emails in my inbox. No good to search because there are not many there. My internet provider has very little support for Thunderbird, so I cannot reset my preferences to keep my emails in the inbox. Sometimes emails don't send, and the app has become a real hassle. I had used it close to 20 years and have given repeated donations to Mozilla. How can we get our Thunderbird back to being a good email app, like it used to be?

Hi,

I'm not sure the topic I chose is the best, but...

I have many(!) accounts and it's become a bit unwieldy. I would like to know if there is a way to set up my main window so I can see my favorite inboxes at the top of the list, but in a unified view. Then the rest can be "un-unified." The current unified view shows all the inboxes and there are too many to sift through. I would like a few prioritized ones to be grouped together. The rest can be grouped (unified) separately.

Thanks,

L

I am pretty sure that at one time mouse-over on the From field would show the sender's address. I am running 102.9.0 (32-bit) and it is not doing that, so I would like to know how to turn it on ? Given it works in Gmail, Yahoo and AOL, this is a pretty common feature.

And I see this as kind of a Security issue as it means I have to open the message to see if the email address is bogus or not. For example, I just got an email from "ADT Security Services <laughing@n4.funnyeditor.com>" , which shows up in From as "ADT Security Services", and accidentally clicked on Unsubscribe. It obviously did not go to ADT.

Thanks Jack

Thunderbird used to have a great edit address GUI. Simple - all on one screen. Now it is on the bottom, one block at a time and all the data is far apart vertically. And above that is a dark screen of other addresses I don't about. YOU screwed up a perfectly clean product to make it the end all data base. I used to recommend it to others. No more. Carl Keil

One day, all my Push Notifications on websites like Youtube and such are suddenly going on my Windows 10's action center instead of just showing it on the web browser like it normally does.

Was this a update change or some setting I accidentally changed? (or changed on me) And How do I switch it back?

I tried to to disable it by going into about:config and changing: alerts.useSystemBackend.windows.notificationserver.enabled to false.

But it didn't work. It still pops in the Windows 10 Action Center, which I don't want.

Hello! When I first downloaded Firefox more than fifteen years ago, I liked two features - speed and customization. The more Firefox "grow", then more he go far from this two features I liked. Why? I know, this is only one hell of a button. But - that's all. They added much, but took more...

This is not that Firefox I loved, now it feels like I use the f***ing Chrome. So, I have question - why I need use Firefox, if I can use Chrome instead? I have Google account and I can use it with Chrome with full synchronization to my phone, why I still use Firefox? Customization? Speed? Optimization? Why? There is no reason anymore. Thanks Mozilla, Firefox was a good experience. More than fifteen years...
