I became excited about the hype. I downloaded 115 and ran it. Two things I immediately noticed, one is the icon is different, and the other is that the UI looks almost exactly, but not quite, like the old UI. Not that this is bad, I use TB everyday on my Mac and it is my email client. But first impressions were underwhelming especially after the hype. One thing I noticed that's an improvement is that TB now recognized my Mac address book so I no longer need Card Book. Other than that it's much ado about nothing.

Thunderbird 115: Unified Inbox is missing an email account

I updated to Thunderbird 115. One of my email accounts is no longer showing up in the "Unified Folders" view. It is still there: it can be seen in the "Favorites Folders" and "Unread Folders." But I would like to use the Unified inbox.

How can I repair Thunderbird to see all accounts in the "Unified Inbox"? I have already tried deleting the IMAP folder in my profile and letting Thunderbird create it again. This did not change anything. Also, (I do not know if this is relevant) I have four email accounts and two of them have the same domain name and a different username (e.g., mail@xxxx.com and name@xxxx.com). One email from this domain is showing up fine, but one is the one that is not showing up any longer.

Thanks for any advice.

I see that Thunderbird has the idea of "Unified Folders" -- which I interpret as their version of "Smart Folders". As far as I can tell, this is an all-or-nothing option. What I would like the ability to do is to define my own "Smart Folders" to link material I need in that context. I can't seem to find any information on whether this is possible, or it's not obvious (to me).

I am running Thunderbird 115 Supernova.

Thanks.

After upgrading to 115.0, the mailbox display has an all-white background. This is not nearly as easy to read is in version 112, which has alternating lines of white & grey for the background.

How can I customize 115 to have alternating colours for the background of each summary line?

How to get rid of this almost-empty useless stripe above menu bar?

I tried "Customize..." but looks like it doesn't allow to customize anymore, toolbar buttons editing only.

After I've read a message, if I click on the "Move To" box on the TB115 menu bar, as expected, I get a dropdown with my folders and subfolders. But if I then click on one of the folders in the dropdown, nothing happens! The only way I can move a message into a folder is to display the folder I want on the lefthand panel and then drag the message into it. This problem developed only after I started using TB115.

I want the unread messages in the list of messages pane to be "orange". I had the following in userChrome.css which worked prior to TB 115:

/* Messagepane text */ treechildren::-moz-tree-cell-text(new) {

      color: #34ebdc !important;
      font-weight: normal;

} treechildren::-moz-tree-cell-text(unread) {

      color: #34c6eb !important;
      font-weight: normal !important;

}

When I upgraded to TB 115 this no longer has any effect. How do I do this in TB 115+?

Thanks. mike

Just updated OS to Ventura. Downloaded T-bird 115.0. All good. Using System Dark mode.

However, I find the black BG too harsh in the inbox window. NOT the message window in the bottom half; the list of emails in the highlighted folder.

I looked everywhere and can't kind a way to change that BG colour. I want to reduce the contrast a little to make it easier to read. Definitely don't want to go back to Light mode: everything is too white.

Thoughts?

Thanks Paul

Hello!

I've just updated my thunderbird to version 115 and noticed that there's a small bug. If you will receive a new message, there will a badge appear on the taskbar icon.

However, this badge with number of unread messages won't disapear after you read the message.

Nothing concerning but I wanted to somehow pass this information to the Mozilla.

My OS is Windows 11 22H2

Hi I made a mistake. I allowed Norton Software Updater to run the TB 115 as an upgrade, rather than download and install 115 as a new install. It seems to be working fine and I like it but I am concerned that I may get future problems. I don't particularly want to save the profiles and re-install if it is unnecessary. Can you please give me your recommendations? Thanks P.S. I have a small number of errors and warnings in the Error Console, mostly from start-up but they mean nothing to me and there are no obvious issues.

TB 115

Tools>Filters does not open if I am in a unfied folder eg Unified Inbox. If I move to an inbox for a specific account Filters will open. If I re-install TB or run troubleshooter and am in Unfied Inbox, Tools>Filters will open one time and will not open after that unless I move to the inbox for an individual account.

Can this be how v115 is supposed to work? I never had problems opening Filters when I was in the Unified Inbox in previous versions.

I just installed Thunderbird version 115, and it's a mess. When I attempt to write a message, the background color is black, making it almost impossible for me to read what I am typing. I've tried changing it through Settings/Composition/HTML Style, but that didn't work. I selected text color Black and background color white, but if I left the Sending Format as automatic, my new written messages still have black text on a black background. If I also change the Sending Format to Only HTML, then my new written messages have white text on a black background -- the exact OPPOSITE of what I have selected. (And yes, I have checked repeatedly. I have selected black text on a white background.) I'm running Windows 11 Home. I'd greatly appreciate any ideas on how to fix the colors of my messages. Thanks!

With "Unread Messages" filter and "Order By -> Group By Thread" both enabled, the threaded message view does not display the most recent message in Inbox. When a new reply arrives to the already displayed thread, it is hidden underneath the packed mail thread in message list and the user is unaware of having a more recent reply already available there. After clicking another mail thread and then back again, the most recent reply is still not shown in the message preview sub-window.

I am using the new default "card" view with Thunderbird 115.
