On this site: https://www.orange.pl/twojekonto/zaloguj I can't force firefox to remember username (no problem with remembering password on next step). In older Firefox without WebEx there was addon which allowed to manipulate forms to prepare proper autocompletion data. This addon is not supported with WebEx anymore due to lack of proper functions. Instead Firefox Dev Team claims that mechanism built in current Firefox is enough for such tasks and mentioned addons are not needed. Seems it is wrong thinking.

I tried different approaches to save username for mentioned site but without success.

I have 4 email addresses and therefore 4 TB folders. I would like to compact these folders but don't want to have to go to each folder and then each file to do this. Hence, how can I compact all folders simultaneously?

Any advice is greatly appreciated, thank you!

In another question I received an answer to how to revert from beta to current version.

I realized I had another question somewhat related. When a problem occurs in beta, I know crash reports go in. Or are they going somewhere else?

I also know a report can be filed on bugzilla. I’ve done that and Felt like a spectator while everybody else fixed the problem.

Ought a person using beta not use this venue for such things?

Aggravations are fairly short lived with beta, I don’t mind if I am being helpful.

If I misunderstand and beta version is for “bug busters then I’m in wrong place.

And I need to revert.

I am running Thunderbird 91.3 which repeatedly pops up a message saying it wants to compact my folders. I do not see any option either in Preferences or in Account Settings for disabling this feature, as there was in previous versions. How can I stop TB from compacting my folders? Thanks.

Hi, I've just spent all day trying to follow all the different suggestions here regarding these issues. Adding all sorts of things to the userChrome CSS but 95% of the suggestions have no effect at all [I'm seriously non-technical, so I have no idea if I'm doing it correctly though...probably not] The only thing that I can change is the Tab Height...nothing else changes regardless of what numbers I put in there. The only way I've been able to make the Bookmarks folders usable at all is to enable Compact mode via about:config. But that actually makes it way too compact now...from one extreme to the other. At least it's usable now...so not the end of the world, but the right click menu still has way too much space between every entry [Compact mode made no difference to that at all]. I don't know how to make a screenshot of those menus :) so I took a couple of pics of the screen...can someone please show me what to add to the CSS file to make these ridiculously big spaces between the menu items way smaller...like they used to be before this Proton came in? I tried tons of things that people said to add to the CSS to fix this menu spacing thing but none of them changed anything. I'll include the CSS file that I have below. Thanks a lot

ps: for some reason the pics always come out sideways here

Is there a way to require Thunderbird to ask before emptying the trash folder? It will ask if I... click on/try to delete... a single message from the trash folder but does not ask when I click/try to empty the trash folder...sometimes I really wamt that second or two to quickly review....

Does compacting affect the use and/or availability of disc space on a digital harddrive differently than it does on a mechanical harddrive? I have heard that processes such as defrag etc are not advisable for digital harddrives.

Thanks Howard Dahlberg

I know that I periodically need to compact my Thunderbird and I do that frequently. However, after I finish compacting Thunderbird will ask me again to compact it (maybe a couple of hours or a day later). For example, I receive a message that compacting will save 500 Mb of space, I compact it and a few hours later I receive a message saying that Thunderbird needs compacting and will save around 300 Mb of space. It seems that those "300 Mb" are always there and Thunderbird is unable to compact them. (hope my question was clear!). Thanks, Miguel

I am using Thunderbird 91.4.0 on Windows 10. Since this upgrade any email in my inbox when opened has the "A unique identity matching the From address not found" message across the bottom, red 'table indicator' boxes in various places around the message. The links in the email do not link, they bring up a box with various information including the link address. Reply-to shows the sender's address and To field shows my address. Reply, forward, delete buttons are missing. If I move the arriving email to another folder it looks normal, but if I hit 'reply' it gets all weird as above again. I saw that this was a bug a couple of years ago with a version about 20 versions back. What's going on? And more to the point, how can I fix it?

Thank you for any help that you can offer.

I get this message: Secure connection failed

         start.thunderbird.net uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate has expired.

(Error code: sec_error_expired_issuer_certificate)

How do I fix it? Thanks, Susie

When I tried to open my email this morning everything was gone!! No folders, no inbox, no contacts NOTHING. Then it started down loading messages from six years ago. What is going on? As of right now I HAVE LOST EVERYTHING! HELP!!!!!

When I am not in full screen the minimize, maximize and close options are there. They disappear when I go into full screen and I am forced to get out of full screen to minimize or close firefox. This only started happening recently. Does anybody know how to make these options appear again while in full screen?

I have one message filter (for the Spam folder) with 50 rules to delete known repeat offenders from the Spam folder. The filter doesn't seem to work at all, even if I try to run the filter manually. Why won't this filter work?

Hello,

I'm using Firefox 91.4.1esr (64-bit) from Debian repositories on Bullseye. Every time I open Firefox, a window with a greeting message appears ("Say hello to a new Firefox"), and it doesn't matter if, as asked by that window, I choose a theme or not. Is this issue related to my settings? Is this a Debian issue? Is it possible to stop that window from reappearing?

Thanks in advance. And many thanks for making Firefox (I've been using it for so many years I can't recall when I tried it for the first time).

I have a website that has MP4 video in a HTML5 video player, with subtitles done in the WebVTT format (*.vtt). I just noticed that, when testing my pages locally on my C drive, the subtitles no longer appear on the movies. They do appear on the website (thankfully). Does this mean that lately Firefox has dropped support for local VTT files? Chrome has always ignored local VTTs, for some reason, which is why - until now - I used Firefox to test subtitles off the C drive. Note: If I link the local page to the VTT file on my website, subtitles still do not appear in Firefox. It could be something else, of course, so just need to know if VTTs are now unloadable locally in FF.

Why am I denied access to Michaels craft store. this is the message I receive. You don't have permission to access "http://www.michaels.com/?" on this server.
