Thunderbird v31.4.0 Linux Mint Debian Edition 3.1.2-amd64 Cinnamon 2.0.14

When clicking on a link within an email, the system crashes and the monitor display displays jagged, diagonal lines. A cold boot is required. This can be repeated.

Same results running in Safe Mode.

Any ideas?

Now the most recent mails of two years are gone, most recent mail is from 2016. Nevertheless my quota is still 91% full. Did I completely lost these mails, or can I recover them? And how to make sure the newest 2000 mails stay, while anything older gets deleted - and my quota usage comes down.

Thanks for your help. Much appreciated

Pressing the Send button, on my Fully Updated, Freshly re-installed Thunderbird, gives NO FEEDBACK and then sometimes Crashes. Like nothing happens. I have a Fiber optic connection and I FREAKING KNOW that it is working because it eventually gives an error message when I try to close it. Because it pissed me off so I copied the file to the Online Email interface for the Email provider.

I can understand crash reports when I close Thunderbird, it gets confused, but when I close just the Email window... What Happens THEN!?!

Ever since IE changed to tabs on top firefox coders followed like mindless automatons without any regard to/for Mozilla community and users. We are sick and tired of being ignored. We want/need tabs bellow address bar. Now, tell us how to simply get tabs below address bar or tell the coders to provide us with the option. And, we don’t care about any excuses as previously provided or outright ignored by them.

How do I disable the ANNOYING message box I get every time I want to send a message to the trash folder. Thunderbird keeps asking me if I want the message deleted to save disk space. This just started in the past week. I want my deleted messages to go to the trash folder and I will manage that folder. I can't seem to find anything in settings that lets me disable this option.

Google says the following when I authenticate my Thunderbird app (MAC OS) to send and receive (IMAP/SMTP) Gmail messages. Is Google correct or mistaken about Thunderbird not being secure? Thank you

"Less secure app blocked Google blocked the app you were trying to use because it doesn't meet our security standards. Some apps and devices use less secure sign-in technology, which makes your account more vulnerable. You can turn off access for these apps, which we recommend, or turn on access if you want to use them despite the risks. Google will automatically turn this setting OFF if it's not being used."

I'm unable to install the VPN tool I purchased because I'm running Windows 7. That would have been really, REALLY helpful to disclose that your VPN tool doesn't run on Windows 7 PRIOR to purchase!!!!! How do I get a refund? I'm well within the 30-day window and I've posted this question to several "forums", different email aliases, etc and heard NOTHING. I would really appreciate some help with this. Thank you.

Update 89.0 changed the browser theme to something I don't like, too pale and pastel. Options to change back to what I had aren't available. The options presented are now uglier than this sick looking theme.

How do I undo 89.0 update? Pretty much looks like (from release notes on another post) 89.0 has nothing at all to do with security and it's just someone at Firefox wanting to change things just for the sake of changing things.

I hope Firefox isn't going to start doing silly things like moving the first floor to the second floor and the second floor to the first floor just because some administrator feels like it.

Thunderbird receives email into wrong inbox

I use Thunderbird with 4 email accounts. All use IMAP. I have three usernames, let us use name1 and name2 and name3, and 3 providers, let us use prov1 and prov2 and prov3. My email accounts, therefore, are name1@prov1.com, name2@prov1.com, name1@prov2.com, and name3@prov3.com. Provider 3 is hosted at gmail.com. Accounts name1@prov1.com, name2@prov1.com, and name1@prov2.com all work as expected. Each of these accounts sends and copies outbound mail to their respective sent folder and receives inbound mail to their respective inbox. While name3@prov3.com sends and copies outbound mail to its sent folder, inbound mail is inexplicably directed to the inbox of name1@prov1.com! Mail does not even briefly flicker in Gmail. I can manually move an email to the proper account in Thunderbird but that is incomplete. The mail disappears from the account in Thunderbird but the IMAP server at prov1 retains a copy that no longer replicates to Thunderbird. The mail, when moved in Thunderbird to the correct account, places the mail in the correct account in Thunderbird and places the mail on the IMAP server of Gmail. How do I get Thunderbird to receive mail for name3@prov3.com in the correct inbox?
