TBird version: 91.4.1 OS: Linux Mint Debian Edition (Debbie) / Cinnamon 5.0.7

Settings: Account Settings > Copies & Folders > Mesage Archives

Current setting is "Keep messsage archives in: Other [set to 'Archive' folder on IMAP mail server] - see settings-1.png Archive options = A single folder - see settings -2.png

Issue: when I archive from my inbox, the mails go into Yearly folder; I want the emails to go into a single folder.

I have tried to reset the configuration multiple times and restarted Thunderbird multiple times, issue still remains. Your assistance is appreciated. Let me know if you need additional information. Thanks!

Using Thunderbird 91.9.1 (latest as of typing this).

Steps: 1) Open Thunderbird. 2) If not already maximized, maximize the Thunderbird window using the button in the title bar. 3) Use shortcut Windows Key + down arrow (or swipe gesture if touchpad setup). 4) Thunderbird will restore down as per the shortcut (Good). 5) Use shortcut Windows Key + down arrow (or swipe gesture if touchpad setup). 6) Thunderbird does nothing (Bad - Should minimize). 7) Use shortcut Windows Key + up arrow (or swipe gesture if touchpad setup). 8) Thunderbird does nothing (Bad - Should maximize).

In steps 5-8, Thunderbird does not respond to either minimize or maximize. These same steps work in any other application (Firefox for example).

What have I tried? I updated Thunderbird (wasn't on the latest, but I am now). I've closed and re-opened Thunderbird. I've restarted my laptop. Uninstalled and re-installed Thunderbird. Nothing has worked.

How to make "Say hello to a new Firefox" not appear next time I open Firefox

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).

For at least the last few months, I've been having problems with printing. It doesn't matter if it's a web page, an attachment in yahoo.mail or a return label from Amazon, the print is too big to fit on the paper. If I switch to Edge, it comes out fine. I have used Firefox for years and never had this problem till now. Please help.

Please tell me how to make the apps coordinate again. When I click a link in an email, FireFox Nightly opens the link. When I attempt to return to TB, it is not in the task bar and Alt Tab does not show it. Task Manager shows TB but Switch To is greyed out. If I attempt to return to N, it is not in the task bar, is in TM and Switch To is greyed out. Both are fully updated, I ran SFC /scannow which did not find corruption.

Running 91.9.1, W10. At about noon today I stopped receiving all emails from multiple providers. I have done no updates. Selecting any account results in the looping timer. The mail is available at gmail and aol as well as on my iphone. I've restarted Thunderbird to no avail. All network settings look good. I am running windows defender. As stated I have changed nothing on the PC.

I'm new to PC's. I have very basic knowledge of how to use an i-pad. A month ago I got myself a new MacBook. I installed Thunderbird, no problems. My old mail showed up, new mail came in. I installed GNupg.

Following FSF's excellent tutorial I set up Thunderbird with encryption, all good. Now I'm at the point where I 'should try it out' by sending 'Edward' my public key. This worked as I immediately got an encrypted e-mail from 'Edward' in my Apple inbox. However, on Thunderbird I was left hanging with a constantly spinning disc which I presumed meant Thunderbird was trying to retrieve said e-mail. This did not resolve.

After clicking here and there on Thunderbird's interface, I ended up at the account set up screen being prompted for my e-mail address and password. Three weeks had passed and I couldn't remember my password, nor find a note of it. I only have access to account set up and homepage. On homepage I looked through the 'hamburger' menu but I can't find anything that helps. So, I'm locked out of Thunderbird mail.

Any help would be appreciated on both how to resolve the password issue, and what might have gone wrong in retrieving 'Edwards' mail.

Many thanks, Darren.

Hello,

When I select text in Firefox the selection is not highlighted. The selection itself does work (e.g. deleting a selected word) but is not visible. The problem occurs in all fields where text can be entered, so the URL space, the search field but also text field on a page like this one. The strange thing is that the problem also occurs in Thunderbird.

I am using Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS, Firefox 99.0 and Thunderbird 91.8.1
