Hello to all, I am having a real challenge with the latest version(s) of Thunderbird (115.8.1) on Windows 10 (i7 with 16Gbs Ran, 1TB SSD)

Background... Have been trying to add some accounts from a domain and this is where it seems to got astray. Added one account (acc#1) some time ago. At that time there was some issues at the time with the changing of the mail servers and the old provider. Left it partially entered within Thunderbird. With that, waited for a week or two to re-add these addresses. The one left was still there, redid the server settings, and added several other addresses from that domain. All seemed to be working just fine at that point... So closed out Thunderbird and shutdown the computer.

Upon rebooting the computer and opening Thunderbird... The account that was partially entered was there, but with the old incorrect settings. The other addresses were no where to be found.

Each time I shutdown Thunderbird and either restart or turn on the computer, the old (acc#1) is still there but with the incorrect settings. Have tried to delete it but it keeps coming back.

Assistance with this would be appreciated...

Do occasionally run CCleaner on this computer... could that be causing any of these issues?

Should I use DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials with Mozilla/Firefox? Would all of the Firefox features work the same or would DuckDuckgo replace Firefox features? If both worked together it would seem to be the best option. I would greatly appreciate some input on this.

I've added 1 Gmail account and 2 outlook accounts on thunderbird today. Thunderbird synced Google calendar and contacts, but it failed to do the same for the Outlook accounts. It did not detect outlook calendar and contacts. Kindly help me to fix the issue.

Until recently my Thunderbird displayed a red count badge showing the number of unread messages. This badge has disappeared sometime during the last few days. I have been unable to fix it.

I have made sure the "Show Badge Icon" box is checked in the "App Icon Options" setting.

I am running Thunderbird 115.8.1 (32-bit). (PS: I am not sure why it is the 32-bit version).

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Is there a hidden interface flag/control to adjust if (or how quickly) the spring-loaded folders pop open? On the old MacBook Pro my wife uses they spring open immediately, pushing the mailbox she wants to drop the selected messages into up and down out of view and often the messages drop into some random folder and she has to go looking for where they wound up.

Hello there,

I like Firefox to ask me what to do each time with PDF documents, so I've set the action for PDF to "Always Ask". However, I've noticed that when I load a page with a PDF document embedded inline, and I select "Open with Firefox" on the dialog box, the document always opens in a new tab.

In other words: there are certain PDF documents that get displayed inline when the action for PDF is "Open in Firefox"; but those same documents get opened in new tabs when set to "Always Ask".

Is possible for Firefox to display PDFs inline while asking me what to do each time?

Thanks in advance!

What is it? What does it signify? Thanks for your help! Kathleen

I'm running Samsung Dex and all the websites features are way too big on Firefox. I cant even see what im typing right now, all i see is a giant "support moz://a"

It's 2024. Get it together Mozilla. There is no option to zoom out. There is no option for desktop pages by default. It's bad enough you are bending to the other corporate sites and limit what plugins we can use here.

But Firefox Mobile is too stupid to figure out it's on a full-size display and it's too retarded to have the settings requirednto resize it myself.

Hello, so I have been putting my custom links onto the 'top sites' start page in Firefox, by editing the icons and putting the URL, etc. It is a great 'speed dial' type feature I love. One thing has me tearing my hair out after trying all ways to try and fix this to appear to my liking, is the 'custom icon' from the website not showing in the sites I want to 'speed dial' Facebook and YT show up fine, but random sites I want on the page don't do this. I don't care why this is anymore, please don't give lengthily fixes. It's just silly you need a working URL with an icon at the end of it to display this properly. It did make me very mad, can you tell, even madder when I saw it done as it should be in OPERA browser, on their 'top sites', or 'speed dial' customizable home page they have the sensible option there to pick your own icon, you can put in a folder on your desktop if you like, no working URL needed! start a collection of what icons you want to see on your own start page. Can you please implement this 'common sense' modification as soon as possible, it will take only minutes of code writing i'm sure. I do not want to, but I will go to Opera as my main browser for this common sense functionality, good luck and thank you.

Hello,

We are using a PAC-File. In the Function: FindProxyForURL(url, host) you return the Proxy. We are returning the Value:

  "PROXY proxy1:3128; proxy2:8080" 

How Firefox determ wich Proxy is now active? We see that Firefox often takes the fallback Proxy. Which

Hello, We are using a PAC-File. In the Function: FindProxyForURL(url, host) you return the Proxy. We are returning the Value:

     "PROXY proxy1:3128; proxy2:8080".

We see that Firefox often takes the fallback Proxy. The connection via the Fallback proxy is much slower than the connection via the original proxy. 

My Questions: How does Firefox recognize which Proxy is now active? Is there away to debug the Proxy Selection? Can I give a priority to a Proxy?

After I had changed the system wide font on my android, random fonts appear in all the websites that do not have custom website fonts.

The fonts work properly on chromium based browsers but this seems to be an issue with firefox. I had previously changed a setting in about:config to fix it but now I cannot find it.

Pls help.

For several months, whenever I need something auto filled, the only thing that pops up is a button that reads "Unlock Firefox" instead of the appropriate saved info. This button does nothing when tapped and when held down, there is tactile click, but then nothing.

Als ik de mail open en er staat een mail geopend, kan ik niet de ingekomen mails openen. Pas als ik eerst een ander item ipv postvak in open, kan ik pas weer op postvak in e.e.a. bekijken. Hoe verhelp ik dat?

I am a totally blind user and I really need the View > Sort By > From menu option in Thunderbird 115 to be changed from disabled to enabled. I am strictly a keyboard user and I can't find instructions to do this that don't involve using a mouse. Can someone please provide instructions on how to activate this sort option using only the keyboard? It is possible, once I have the keyboard focus on the right place, for me to emulate mouse clicks using the keyboard with my JAWS 2024 version screen reader. I've been banging my head on my desk in frustration over this for some time now. Changing this menu option did not make Thunderbird easier to use, especially for blind users. Changes like this have the opposite impact on accessibility. Otherwise, I love this program!

While I was browsing an open tab I moved my cursor over to the Bookmarks icon and the cursor automatically enlarged itself. I expect the cursor to remain at its normal size when I hover over the bookmarks icon but instead it became larger. I cannot reproduce the error unfortunately.
