Just was updated to Thunderbird Supernova. Now when I perform a search with the unified toolbar I get a list of results, but anytime I select one of the results a new tab is open with a Blank message.

I've re-indexed my emails as per : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/rebuilding-global-database but that hasn't helped.

Anyone else having this problem and found a solution? The only work around I have so far is to use the Ctrl-Shift-F which works, but is a little slower.

Thanks, Robert

I have version 102.11.0

I am trying to add email addresses to my contacts folder from the email header. I right click on the address and a box opens up that says "add cardbook contact" and I choose the address book I want the address added to.

Then a full screen opens up for the contact - at the top it says "register a new email address"

(It sure would be nice if all the language was the same. Is this a cardbook? an address book? Am I adding a contact or registering an email address? What does "register" mean? All of this variety only adds confusion.)

That screen has the email address and contact name entered in the proper fields - I scroll down, look all around, but nowhere can I find a "save," "done" "ok" or other button to click. And sure enough, when I close the screen, no contact has been added that I can find.

I would really like to be able to add contacts this way - otherwise I have to copy and paste, etc. etc.

Can anyone help? I'm on Linux Mint 21.1 Cinnamon

I'm a long-time Thunderbird user (since TB 3.0) finding myself having to rebuild my TB install yet again.

Thunderbird 105 had been working fine since I installed it on this laptop 189 months ago. Suddenly, in early July, it was unable to write to mailboxes on several of my gmail pop accounts. (it suggested I was out of disk space or didn't have enough permissions. Neither was the case.)

I was forced to create a new TB installation and I'm now trying to rebuild my e-mail life from scratch. Not fun. I've got most things working but whenever I open a gmail contact using CardBook, the "Add a new address book" dialog is opened as well. Very annoying. What would be causing this and how do I get rid of it? (I tried all the options it gave me and none helped.)

Here's how I rebuilt my TB installation:

Downloaded and installed latest TB. Turns out it's 115 for which many add-ons aren't ready yet. Installed QuickFolders, QuickFilters addons (beta versions) Installed Lightning and Provider for Google Calendar add-ons Recreated my 3 gmail accounts (2 pop and 1 imap) plus my ISP account (pop). 1 pop gmail account uses Local Folders, the others all have their own folders. Set up my Google Calendar in CardBook. Shutdown TB. Copied all my mailboxes in Local Folders over to my new profile (having first renamed Inbox to Inbox-old.) I haven't tried copying my old TB address books from the old profile, yet.

All of a sudden, without installing a new release, no change to settings, send does not work any more. Windows 12 TB 128.3 I push send, screens gets less contrasted and nothing happens. I bypass the problem by leaving the message, saving it to drafts and with my smartphone I srnd the draft! Something else happens since some time, do not know if it is related: when I open TB and go to inbox, it shows an inbox that's not up to date. After a minute it refreshes to the present inbox. Pls help, TY
