recently, today, updated to TB 102.2.2.

when I first installed TB, I set up a custom color scheme and I loved it... now with the latest TB , it's unreadable where the top menu bar is concerned.

I also have custom userChrome css file....

1. threadTree > treechildren {

 font-size: 16pt !important;
 font-family: Times !important;
 background-color: lightgrey !important;
 color: navy !important;

}

1. folderTree > treechildren {

 font-size: 16pt !important;
 font-family: Times !important;
 background-color: lightgrey !important;
 color: navy !important;

}

would appreciate any insights on how to fix this

On the web browser the tool bars have grown to fill half the screen. Book marks i was able to control but can find no solution for the others. I cant use fire fox like this. Opera and many others did this in the past and we all came over to fire fox because you were one of the few who didnt take half the screen from us. Is there a solution

other than full screen?

I have multiple computers running thunderbird and receive email from the same accounts. After recently adding a new machine I've noticed that many emails are being sent to junk that seem to have been trained out of the other machines. It is often not convenient to go to the new machine to set "not junk" on a particular email. Is there any tool for synchronizing adaptive filters across multiple computers?

Hey there, I am trying to make Thunderbird launch in the background but the program refuses to do so.

Tried changing properties of the shortcuts to "Run:Minimized", didn't work.

Tried all solutions here -> [https://superuser.com/questions/13469.../how-to-actually-start-program-minimized-in-windows-10|Superuser], didn't work.

I can't understand why it doesn't work with TB, works with few other things I tried. I wish TB had this option in the first place :/

Hi. Thanks in advance. I have 5 gmail accounts coming in to Thunderbird, and suddenly, 2 of them will not send emails. The other 3 are fine. I have been through the suggested helps on the webpage. Any ideas? Jan

Regarding having correct settings for smtp server...After working fine for a couple of years, in May my Thunderbird email client starting getting an error when trying to send email, requiring having to wait and retry multiple times to get the email to send without getting the timeout error. I spent a lot of time in May to resolve without success, then a lot more time this month. I have tried several different settings for "Authentication method" and "Connection Security" The smtp settings specified by my email provider, WOW, either don't match the Thunderbird options, or result in error. A different set of settings I tried seem to work, as well as a variation of what a WOW rep emailed to me in May. However I wonder if either of these settings cause any security issues to be concerned about--that is my main question now, since sending email seems to be working fine again.

1) The other week I set smtp server settings to Authentication method: Normal password Connection Security: STARTTLS That has been working fine for a couple weeks without error. However since WOW says they don't support STARTTLS is that a problem to specify those settings?

2) What one WOW rep specified in May on a screen shot with a handwritten note: Authentication method: Normal password Connection Security: None However when I specify "Connection Security: None" the only option allowed for Authentication method is: "Password, transmitted insecurely." Email seems to work without error with those settings. However is "Password, transmitted insecurely" a problem? Or is that OK? (Transmitted Insecurely doesn't sound reassuring!)

In multiple calls and hours of time with my email provider, WOW, they say they don't have any information about what the settings should be for Thunderbird, and despite their efforts have not been very helpful. Attached is some information they have provided on different occasions, or from the web site. Screen shot -- Outgoing Server (SMTP) Settings Standard POP3 Server information Email Server Settings

Comcast/xfinity started forcing MFA authentication here. Thunderbird is now disconnected. How to I reconfigure to accommodate MFA? I poked around FAQs and such and found references to 0auth2 authentication method but that option doesnt appear as an option in my settings. Only normal password, encrypted password, kerberos/gss api, ntlm, and tls certificate.

How do I fix this? I am on 102.2.2.

I created a new Gmail account with the IMAP server a while back when forced to by Gmail, but i retained my old Gmail/POP server account in Thunderbird to retain the old messages. (IMAP would wipe them out.) The new Gmail/IMAP works fine but Thunderbird constantly tries to log into the old POP account and repeatedly sends me alerts that "log-in failed," asking me to enter a new password, etc.

Is there a way to keep this old POP account -- or at least all the old messages in it -- in my Thunderbird, but inactive so Thunderbird doesn't keep trying to log me in?

Thank you for any suggestions.

This is not the first time I am using Firefox on my iOS. I have just bought the iOS 16 and some websites do not provide access to my Firefox browser. It's the first time I am facing this issue because I am an investor and regularly use those sites and they are performing well on my previous iOS models. The main thing I have noticed is when I switch to Chrome from Firefox it works fine. Don't know the reason. Can somebody in the community help me?

BUGZILLA SUMMARY:

Bug 1791218

Thunderbird auto-update from v.9x to v.102 wiped out half my calendar entries (and other problems)

Thunderbird 102

Defect Report

DESCRIPTION:

(1) In about the first week of September (2022), Thunderbird prompted me to relaunch to install an update. When the updated (v.102) Thunderbird launched, I discovered that half my calendar events were gone -- there were _14_ days in September with _NO_ events ... in spite of the fact that I had an 'everyday' morning reminder event among those that disappeared. See attached file (T-BIRD 102 CALENDAR DAMAGE.jpg).

(2) Note in that calendar image the disagreement between the 'mini-month' and the 'full-month' about what day is 'Today' -- Sep-7 or Sep-8 !??

(3) when I ask to display events in the current month that contain "BDAY", it displays _ALL_ events that contain "BDAY".

(4) I always have 2 'message' windows open (for 2 different groups of folders), and each window has multiple tabs (for folders etc). Until the v.102 update, key strokes [Ctrl + PageUp / PageDown] moved the focus to the LEFT / RIGHT between the tabs.

NOW (v.102) ... [Ctrl + PageUp / PageDown] sometimes works as before, but when it comes to certain tabs, those key strokes behave differently: (a) they move up or down IN THE MESSAGE-LIST or (b) move up or down IN THE FOLDER LIST !!! ... and I have to move to a different tab using the mouse  !-(

(5) Before Tbird-102 ... Reading a message, with the cursor on the 'Subject' field, {Right-Click + 'Copy'} used to copy (for example) ... "New Thunderbird Videos!"

Now Tbird-102 ... using the same mouse action, copies "Subject:New Thunderbird Videos!"

(*) There may be other problems, but this is enuf to get started. I am disappointed and distressed.

What happened? Did I get a pre-beta v.102 or a counterfeit download by mistake?

How can I get a working Tbird-102? How can I get my calendar entries back? And other 'assets' such as AddressBook if more damage is found?

A friend is suggesting it may be time to switch to MS Outlook.  :-\

Over the past coiuple of months, I have found that Thunderbird (102.2.2) on my Windows PC is downloading my mail from the TalkTalk server even when Thunderbird is closed. This means that I cannot use my Android tablet to download mail as it has already been downloaded to my PC.

I can see no evidence that Thunderbird is active in the Task Manager.

'UID FETCH failed'

I have not be able to receive emails for over 2 weeks. I see that other users are experiencing the same issue. It is set up for IMAP with optonline.net

How can I get support?

Thank you, Diana

Hello, This issue might or might not be related to [other issue] I have since I updated Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04 and therefore updated my Firefox to 104. I can't login anymore on Letterboxd since the update. It's not a problem of username or password. When I click "Sign in", nothing happens except a page refresh, but I'm still not logged in. Other strange behaviour on that site since the update: most of the images don't appear. For example on this page : https://letterboxd.com/films/# all the movie covers are just blank.

The website does work properly when using Firefox in private mode though (both login and images work fine), so this makes me think it's related to my other issue mentioned above.

OS: Ubuntu 22.04 Firefox 104.0.2

EDIT after posting this question: I just found out that I can't login on Google either. I enter my username, password, then it asks me to validate on another apparel that it's really me, which I do, and nothing happens so I can't login. It works normally in private mode.

Hello, I've upgraded my Ubuntu distribution from Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04 yesterday. This forced me to update my Firefox version, I am now running the 104.0.2. I now have the following issue: on some websites, the page loads normally but as soon as it's loaded, the page becomes entirely blank. This doesn't seem to be a website issue, as it actually appears normal for a very short instant before it disappears. A website for which this happens is: https://www.lalibre.be/ (I only encountered the issue on another website but it's from the same editor). I tried in a private window and it works normally! I tried in the normal window after deactivating all the addons, it still doesn't work. I tried with or without the Firefox account logged in, it doesn't work. Until now, it's only these 2 websites from the same editor, but as I said, they worked fine yesterday, they work fine on other browsers and they work fine in Firefox private mode. Any idea where this might come from?
