On many sites, various elements are in a strange font, that I think is "Impact." I have tried a couple things to fix this, but I have not got anything to work. I have noticed that this is only an issue for some elements on every site, and not every single element on every site. My best fix has been to use a "Font Changer" add-on that changes the font of the site back to something readable, but this tends not to work on many embedded webpages and things like that. I am very unsure of what is causing this, or where this font even came from. I have attached an image of a random eBay page where the issue is particularly prevalent, but this happens on most sites.

Thanks in advance for your help! - Benjamin

I use Thunderbird POP3 on my PC and iPhone. When I delete a message from my iPhone, it is almost instantly deleted from the server. When I delete a message from my PC, it isn't deleted from the server. I want messages I delete on both PC and iPhone to result in the message being deleted from the server.

I have been using Thunderbird since its inception ( & Netscape before ) and I have never encountered this nor do I understand why Thunderbird while its up & running all of a sudden NEEDS to have the password !

Thanks in advance.

Dear reader, im using Thunderbird now for yearssssss and very happy with it !

But all the time when i insert a table I am setting the border thickness to 1. Everytime I insert an image into my email I am setting the border to 1.

This is so annoying...is there a way to set those border values (or in general the layout of a table or image) by default to 1 ?

Would love to hear that !

Bye, Ivo

In TB 102.9 after clicking on the name of a contact and viewing the info on that contact's card, I can't return to the list of all contacts in my address book. How can I do that? Please see the screenshots attached. The first shows part of the list in my address book. The second screenshot shows an individual contact card covering the list of names in the address book. How to leave that individual contact card and returning to the list of contacts has eluded me. Thanks for helping me learn how to do that.

Some of my incoming emails have become displaying at plain text instead of HTML in Thunderbird.

I have tried toggling View>Display Attachments Inline, View>Headers>All vs. Normal, and View>Message Body As>Original HTML vs. Simple HTML vs. Plain Text. Nothing seems to correct this handful of emails.

When I browse the same emails via a browser at mail.yahoo.com, the appear as normal HTML.

Until this occurred, I had not made any configuration changes to Thunderbird or my Windows laptop.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

When typing addresses for a new email (To or CC), Thunderbird normally offers frequently used contacts first. This feature does not seem to work when address book synchronization with Google via CARDDAV is enabled.

I have it set up this way and Thunderbird still offers me email addresses I've never used as first. Is this a bug in my setup or a limitation of the program? Is there a workaround for this?

To the Thunderbird support group,

I am not tech savie when it comes to software. I have been reading through the links related to this issue and I am now at a total loss! I have had to go back to Outlook to to refer to emails with links within them. I have only until 31-Mar-2023 before the email server will stop sending emails to Outlook. I am desperate to get this issue resloved. I ask your team to please help me!

I'm, using TB version 102.7.1 (64-bit) on Windows10. An hour ago I received an email in TB which was displayed perfectly normally. Having read it I moved on to other emails, but then wanted to go back and re-read the first one. In moving out of that first one then returning to it, either it is doing something automatically which I do not want, or probably more likely, I unintentionally, and unknowingly, clicked on something. Either way, that first email was no longer being displayed in my Inbox. After a while of searching I found it sitting all on its own in an obviously automatically newly-created folder labelled 2023, in Archives. I have been using TB for many years, but I have never needed to archive anything and never have intentionally done so. I don't even know how to do this. So although I'm sure that archiving is a very good feature and probably worth doing, I really don't want my emails disappearing from my Inbox without me intentionally shifting them. So how can I prevent this happening again (it was quite an important email)? Did I accidently click on something. If not, is there some setting or other that I need to learn about, please?

Hello,

A few Firefox for Mac updates ago, the Wells Fargo website colors changed with Firefox for Mac, and the other browsers still display Wells Fargo the right way. On the current versioin of Firefox for Windows, the Wells Fargo website still looks the way it should.

Attached are 2 screen shots of Wells Fargo's website. One screen shot, using Chrome for Mac shows the Wells Fargo colors correctly. The other screen shot using the updated Firefox for Mac shows the colors wrong, pretty much without colors, etc...

How can this be fixed so that we can use Firefox for all browsing?

Thanks,

 - Alan
