I am using Thunderbird 24.4.0 on a MacBook Mountain Lion. I have three email accounts - about to drop one having changed provider. Each account has different message pane buttons, not by intention, none have the full set, and the full set cannot be restored by right-clicking to customize and selecting 'restore default set'. Thanks. Tanya

I'm from the Outlook.com team at Microsoft and would love to get "Outlook.com" as one of the free options for 'New Email Address' within Thunderbird.

As far as I understand, Thunderbird is run by this community, rather than Mozilla's corp team. Who would be best to speak to, and what would you need from us?

Thanks,

The Outlook.com Team

How to to disable the obtrusive message that crops up in incoming messages: "To protect your privacy, Thunderbird has blocked remote content in this message."

Is there any way to disable the large and obtrusive message that crops up in most of my incoming messages: "To protect your privacy, Thunderbird has blocked remote content in this message." I'm still struggling with the many terrible new "features" of Windows 8, one of which is incongruence of font sizes and inability to scale them properly as in previous Windows versions. The obnoxious Thunderbird warning above, takes up most of the space of what otherwise would be the message itself. I then must use the tiny scrollbar to see the actual content of the message, or take an extra step in the "Other Actions" menu to open the message in a new tab. I'd just like to be able to see my actual incoming message, but Thunderbird's warning takes up at least 60% of the space. Is there a way to hide or disable the warning, while still maintaining the block on incoming remote content ? If not, there should be, in your next version. Thanks.

In my opinion, it would be a great feature to have "Archive" as a filter action. That way I could create a filter that finds messages older than X days and "archive" them. This way we, the users, will not depend on other users writing and maintaining add-ons, which do this very simple action. I hope this is consider as a feature request.

Thank you.

I am setting up a client to receive emails from an online service request form.... he's not tech saavy and wants all incoming emails to print out on his printer upon arrival. When he gets in at the end of the day, he wants a stack of printed emails/forms from which he can return calls. I know this can be done in MS Outlook (ugh)... hoping you can do the same or better!! I'm a longtime user and rely on Tbird...

Thunderbird's address book has columns for telephone numbers. Is there a feature or add-on that allows one to click on the telephone number and have it dial that number through a PC's modem? Wordperfect Office had that feature in its address book but it has been removed in versions that work with Windows 7. I feel lost without it.

Hi guys,

I was hoping there might be a feature or add-on that will allow me to automatically print an email after I send it. For the purpose of creating a paper trail we have to print out at least the 1st page of all emails sent to our clients. Love using Thunderbird and would like to keep using it. I know there is a feature in Outlook. Hope you guys have one too :)
