I have a Microsoft Online Exchange email account configured in Thunderbird 142.0 as an exchange account (not IMAP). I had a draft email in the drafts folder that was created using Outlook Web Access (OWA). Upon saving the email in Thunderbird, the email completely disappeared from the drafts folder. This email was not found in trash, sent items, outbox or anywhere else. Further if I create a new email message and click save or save as draft it appears momentarily in the drafts folder then completely disappears and cannot be found.

In Account Settings > [Exchange Email Account] > Copies & Folders > Drafts & Templates > Keep draft messages in: I have "Drafts" Folder on: [Exchange Email Account] set. If I change this to Local Folders, the draft message does not get lost (but also does not sync in exchange).

I also have a Gmail account in Thunderbird which does not exhibit this behavior of losing drafts. This is a fresh installation of Thunderbird.

i love 65 because it is SO much faster but i would like to be able to sync my calendar.

the older versions just do not work very well for me. too slow

thanks, scott

Recently the email composing function has ceased working in Thunderbird (ver 65.0b3 (32-bit)). Other functionality also recently changed ie clicking the get messages button no longer downloads new messages so we now have to select Get all new messages from the drop down arrow attached to that button. We are only able to type in the email body text area when replying to messages but not when we compose a new message from scratch. The compose new message screen allows us to put in send from and send to as well as type a subject line but doesn't allow us to click in the body text area. If I update the subject line and then tab to try and get to cursor to move to the body text area, all that happens is a dotted line border shows around the body text frame box. I have tried safe mode without addins and removed silverlight but nothing has changed. My wife said she accepted some update a few weeks ago but can't remember what it was for. I will attach a screen shot of the compose page to assist in helping resolve this issue. Thanks

Does anyone know how to highlight in the 65.0beta version of Thunderbird?

I can change the color of text and the whole pages background color but I can't highlight specific text only. I searched for an add on and had no luck. All the add on's I could find stated that they are not compatible with the 65.0beta version.

I frequently highlight text in email correspondence. I can do this in Microsoft word and every other email application I have used. I am resorting to saving my email in Thunderbird and opening it up in my old email application to highlight and then send the email. It's really annoying!

Hi

No spell checking available (greyed out), add-on dialogue says Dictionary has been added to TB ( refer image).

Any suggestions?

thanks

Very aggravating, I specifically set to ask before installing updates, and it updated anyway. Reason being I was using a plugin that is no longer supported in the new versions and I cannot find any evidence that he is still an active developer. It was ExQuilla for Microsoft Exchange. I was using it for exchange and my Microsoft live account. Now I do not have access to these accounts and it is quite frustrating. It looks like I will be starting my search for a mail program once again since your update setting does not do what it is suppose to be designed to do.

PDF Viewer just loads a white screen on the 130.0b1 (64-bit) build, I have to manually save the pdfs and open them with another program.

I have restarted TB several times, restarted the computer, checked for any and all malicous firmware and still its not working
