My TB has updated to v. 60 and now my Theme Font & Size Changer does not work I want to go back to an earlier version. Please help me to do this. When I click on it I get this box, which gives me no options to change anything.

Can I choose whether I want to install the latest update?

When TB starts up, the only folders I can see are Recent. I can go to View/Folders and click ALL, and as soon as I move the mouse away from that menu item, it switches back to Recent. This started on version 115.09, but persists after I've "upgraded" to 115.10.1.

It has now (5/3/24 17:25 CDT) been 2-1/2 days since I submitted this problem, and no one has responded that it has even been noticed, much less solved. One of my two email accounts is a POP3, and the other is IMAP. The IMAP account Inbox doesn't even show up on the TB home screen. (If that info is of any help).

PLEASE ADVISE. My emails are an integral part of my business, and I cannot get to almost any them.

Thanks, rehawkpe

This is about my 89 yo mother's email client, thunderbird. When TB opens, for just a second I can see her inbox, sentbox, etc and then in a flash, a new tab opens that is just blank. I can't close this tab. I've reinstalled TB, that didn't help. I've included a screenshot.

I really appreciate the help. Email and FB are my mother primary means of communicating with the world. Not having a working version of TB is really hurting her.

Export messages to Text file programmatically

I receive email consisting of firewall logs and they are routed, via Message Filters, into a folder. I would like to programmatically save any/all messages into a folder as a text file. The message can be saved "as is", I'm just looking to get it out of the .eml format into a text format.

What I am asking, appealing, for is a pointer to scripting language/tools. Is the answer in writing my own extension? Does someone already have an extension out there (I could not find anything after a couple scans of Add-Ons, but I do not dismiss the possibility that I am blind)?

Thanks for any guidance provided.

Thunderbird could not get to the att server starting Sunday; it's now Thursday night. (Everything else inexplicably went down: landline, internet, cell phone, even the printer.) Now it's all back except a working Thunderbird. Today I finally made contact with someone at att who could show me that my password was working and went through all the account variables in Thunderbird, testing them out to no avail. Her conclusion was that the problem was on the Thunderbird side. But I need my 30 years of files. I have just been through a thread from 11/23 full of similar problems but no solution that I could figure out. I am ignorant. Can anyone provide some instructions for an ignorant 88 year old to follow for at least a better diagnosis. (I guess I'm saying that many words need definitions for me.) I hope I've bookmarked that long discussion with varying ideas so I can look at it again when I recover from this week. Thanks for any help.

I'm right clicking on a desktop file (or any file) to Send To Mail Recipient. When TB 60 is not open nothing happens. When TB is open is closes and no new dialog boxes or windows open as they use to with the previous version of TB I used.

I've checked default programs and TB is set. I'm using Windows 7 Pro and TB 60.0b9 (64-bit),

We've just upgraded from TB 2.0.0.2-- great release, just needed to be able to view more remote content so after looking at all the different releases I chose 60 for us with Lightning and Provider for google calendar integration. Quite a change after all these years. I'm happy to downgrade if this is a known glitch that hasn't been fixed or isn't available.

Is it possible, for the sake of clarity, to have a separate account page (each with it's own shortcut) for each of 2 different email accounts ?

When I open Thunderbird, both of my email accounts are shown in the left hand column. And though the names are different and the servers are different, the appearance is so similar that I have, at time, found myself working in the wrong account. I would simply like to separate the accounts so that each has it's own sign on shortcut and each appears in it's own window. Please advise if this is possible, and if so, how it can be done.

Wie kann ich herausfinden, in welchen Listen ein Kontakt enthalten ist, ohne in jeder Liste zu suchen? Es gab in der Kontakt-Anzeige einen "Suche"-Button, der alle Listen anzeigte, in denen dieser Kontakt enthalten ist. Dieser Button ist jetzt "ersetzt"(?) durch einen "Karte anzeigen"-Button.

If a contact belongs to more than one list, how can I find out in which ones it is (without looking into each list)? In the older version there was a Search-botton, when showing the contact details. When pressing this button, the related lists(s) of this contact were shown. Now this button is replaced(?) by a "show- map"-button.
