I can't copy/paste the information in messages in some of my e-mails. How can I unblock these messages.

I can copy/past these messages using other e-mail applications.

Hello, In my Mozilla Thunderbird email client I'm sorting received emails into 'conversations' which in Thunderbird is known as 'Threaded View'. I find this to be useful functionality but one problem I have is that it's not obvious when there's a new email in that thread. The only way to check for a new message in a thread, is to click on the '<n> replies' in the very first threaded email, so that when that expands to show all content in that thread - one can then see that there are new emails that haven't yet been read. Is there any way that new (unread) emails in Threaded View can be made obvious ?. Regards,

I got a new computer, and after installing Thunderbird, it took forever to get it set up with the information from my old computer. Now, the unified folders aren't working. All of my mail is going into each account's inbox. There's no option to choose anything on the unified inbox, only the same thing as the other inboxes have. Help, please!

I've followed all recommendations to fix that, but nothing works. Should I remove the browser, boot up, and download it again? Remove all my personal settings, etc? Also, I download my emails, I erase the unwanted emails, and suddenly, many copies of my previously erased emails show up after I get a new email. This happens with Gmail and Yahoo Mail. Please help me, this is driving me crazy and taking up my time. Gratefully, have a swell day! Isis

Every time I open the new version the following comes up in a window. By agreeing, you’ll allow Thunderbird Mail to access: Yahoo Contacts read and write Yahoo Calendar read and write Yahoo Mail read and write

The Yahoo Contacts and Yahoo Mail I can understand, But, I don't want a Yahoo Calendar. Is it somehow possible to allow Contacts and Mail, but exclude Calendar?

I have lost the send, attach buttons on my new emails? not sure what I touched.

I can recieve emails and reply but when I want to write a new email I am not able to send it as the button to send is gone.

also the New Message button is gone.

In my effort to solve a different issue, I have made things somewhat worse.... I do not see the option to display listing of unread/all messages. I do not see a Settings tab in the menu bar.

Please help. TNX.

I have Thunderbird 148.0 with windows 11. I have 5 email accounts. How do I turn off those unwanted and unneeded notifications of email messages. There are TONS of them and they are very irritating and serve no useful purpose that I can see.

At one time before several updates ago, all messages in my inbox were separate. After a previous update, reply or messages with the same header started be be nested, each one showing only the sender and the subject, which is now the same. I am forced to read through them all to find the one I want. Deleting any in the change can be hazardous.

How to go back the old way of message display?

Hi

When Thunderbird is started maximized it overlap taskbar if is set to hide and taskbar won't show until Thunderbird is minimized and maximized. Another way is to press the Win key two times. Then the hided taskbar can be shown/use. The same thing happens to Firefox. Only when is first started. Then if Firefox is minimized and maximized, press Win key two times, press F11 two times then the hided taskbar show/hide normal.

It is a setting that can be changed to start Thunderbird and Firefox in full screen and do not overlap hided taskbar?

Hi!

I'm losing my mind by the fact that you can't hold to scroll or click to toggle scroll with MMB in Thunderbird, instead it opens a new tab which is completely useless to me since I share inbox and mail reader in one screen.

Is there any way to fix or change this?

If not I'd really like to request this as an option or feature.

I started using Claude in the side panel instead of a dedicated tab, but there is something noise about it: every time I click to open the side panel the chat starts from scratch. Getting a clean slate is nice, but it takes too much time loading. So I would like to not unload the content of the panel when I close it, just hide it, so when I click to open is already loaded. There is a way to do that?

I use folder icon colors for various purposes. I prefer my color selection "menu" to look like the first included image, after I define and Add to Custom Colors.

After a restart of TB, my custom color choices go away. I believe the color choices should survive and be permanent until changed by the user. Please advise, thank you.

I have found in the settings where it looks like I can increase the font size to better see and read my emails, but it does not affect what I have.

How to increase font size to make reading easier?

There is a way to add a folder to a Thunderbird account that combines other folders. The one I want to create would be "Inbox and Sent emails combined". I did it in the past, but I can't remember how to do it anymore. Can someone help with this? I am running Thunderbird 140.8.0esr (64-bit) on Linux Mint.
