I've been using Thunderbird for a long time but this is something I've not seen before today.

I was editing an old message (via 'Forward') to produce a new message - an agenda for a regular meeting. I started to delete words from a line of text, going from the right-hand side using the backspace key. When I reached the beginning of the first deleted word (i.e. after deleting the first character in the word, before I could delete the preceding space) the cursor jumped about 20 characters to the right, as if a big tab had been inserted.

The line now had extra space characters on the end of it. I could delete those with Backspace one at a time and then move on to the next word now at the end of the line. When I reached the beginning of that word the cursor jumped to the right again - though not necessarily by the same number of characters.

Weirdly, this didn't happen with every word. Sometimes I could get to the beginning of a word and could go straight on to delete the space in front of it.

Deleting text by other methods (e.g. using the Delete key to go from left to right, or highlighting text and using Ctrl/X) work as normal.

This is not a phenomenon limited to a specific message. I've tried editing other messages and the same thing happens, but with different numbers of spaces inserted. I'm really not sure what's going on or why it has suddenly started to happen.

Can this issue be replicated by others? I'm currently using Thunderbird 140.0.1 on up-to-date Windows 11 (though I was using 139.xx earlier today when I first noticed this).

Hi! Yesterday, an amout was withdrawn from my bank, see the notification:

POS 21.90 BGN THUNDERBIRD EMAIL SAN FRANCISCO USA 724447

As I don't remember authorising, or ordering this payment (I like to surf alot and not always remember what have done)qplease check and inform me : 1. Is this some subscription I may have done? If so - what it is as Thunderburd is suposed to be free app... 2. Is somebody using my account or Card, so I nees to change access details? 3. Or it may be some subscrition made through Thunderbird?

Please, help! Plamen Gogov pgogov@gmail.com

Hello! After the recent Firefox update, there’s no longer a home button in the task bar. Is there a setting on the iOS app to get this back? I miss having the ease to change a page immediately to my home page, without having to open a new tab and close the old one. Thanks!

As creator of retroonline.net. We recently noticed Firefox have limited value size in IDB which Chrome and Edge do not have. This limitation prevents big games running on Firefox despite Firefox has the best performance on WASM. Will there be a proper way to change this limitation or plan to remove it?

I was planning to start using the AI chatbot sidebar finally, tried out all of the free options available and settled on HuggingChat. The very next day, HuggingChat ceased operations. I don't really like the other preset options, but I have a couple of other models that I would be interested in trying out. Is there some way to add a different model than the five preset or am I just out of luck?

I open my email which is Thunderbird but when I try to sign in to Google they say "The server cannot process the request because it is malformed. It should not be retried. That's all we know."

Hi guys. It used to be that when I read an email and click the delete button, the tab would close and it would return to the folder the email was in. But since the last update, it just shows me the next email in the folder.

Is there a way to change that? I want to return to the folder after an email was deleted. I don't want to look at the next email.

I looked in settings everywhere and if there is a way to change that in settings, I can't find it.

Thank you so much in advance for your help.

What's happened here. I cannot check my e-mails without changing my Password. Accept no matter what password I put in it rejects it. I have a backlog of about 600 e-mails. I recently changed my password with the phone company. Is that the one I should be using?
