some time ago I configured by thunderbird account to announce "You have mail" and it worked reliably until frontier moved email support to yahoo. Since then I get the "you have mail" announcement for a low percentage of new mail messages received. I contacted yahoo mail support and they responded that this is a problem with thunderbird and has nothing to do with yahoo. I suspect it's a matter of which process "sees" the new message first - thunderbird of yahoo mail. I've tried not having a yahoo mail window active, but that makes no difference. Most of the time now I get only a "gong" sound when a new mail message is received rather than "You have mail" voice notification.

I was trying to get an email to come back at a future date and I right clicked on the email and clicked on "tag" and entered a date. Then T-Bird suddenly eliminated all the dark printing on unread messages. Is tat reversible? I need to go back to many previously unread message, but they are no longer clearly marked.

I LOVE y'alls new splitscreen feature, BUT I also noticed ya'll put the X on the tabs so that at any time even if unselected, you can close it; Is there any way to make that x appear only when selected because the main reason I used firefox in the past was because middle click was it's own dedicated way to close tabs making selected tabs literally careless and SIGNIFIGANTLY time efficient, but now that that x is on the tab at all times, it gets in the way and IT'S MAKING ME CLOSE ALL MY SPLIT TABS. Please, as a loyal firefox user, with either tell me how to remove the x's or please make it an official option to have them off. Thank you for your time.

As an older person, having to learn and relearn and constantly relearn how my browser functions is becoming more and more aggravating frustrating and put off ish.

Back in the day, these things didnt change automatically, another version was released instead for download with build notes.

It is starting to feel like having a computer and using it is becoming a troll. Im being serious.

One day the tabs are smaller on the left side, the next week the tabs are somehow grouping together and even though I didnt ask for it to happen, nor did I make it happen, its happening!. Now I have a mute button on the tab, even though my computer already 9 different mute buttons.

One day I had my grand daughter over and it took me 45 minutes to realize why there was no audio on netflix for her to watch. These constant feature changes are being a major part of my and everybodys lives. We are all becoming more impatient with these things.

The majority of new features seem to be unused, from my perspective, by the majority of comments I read on here, facebook, x, etc, they are just simply jammed down our collective throats seemingly at the whims of a designer thinking to themselves "I'm going to move this button over here!" This stuff is not making our worlds better. This stuff is not making our lives easier. This stuff is not making our lives simpler.

The effect is the exact opposite. I read a story last month about an autistic teenager that had a cell phone, because everyone else has a cell phone. When they couldn't get their phone to do whatever it was they wanted it do, they threw it in frustration. Turns out they broke a window at school that cost $5000 by throwing the phone. i don't know what app this person was using or attempted to use, and what caused the frustration, but I sure feel that pain sometimes. The parent posted that because the school sent them a bill for the window replacement.

Let me repeat that: The parent received a $5000 invoice for a window their child broke at school, because they were frustrated with phone.

Is there a way to limit the feature changes or stop them while maintaining security updates?

I literally find myself using the internet less and less, and I feel like this has a lot to do with it. As your product becomes more and frustrating to use, I am using it less and less. And I know thats not what anyone wants.

Why can't we have the best of both worlds??

Good day, thank you in advance for your help.

I have two questions: 1. Which Thunderbird version is better than ESR? Could you share your opinion?

It's faster and it applies all changes more quickly, that's how it seems right now.

If there are still 32-bit and 64-bit versions available simultaneously, I'll test it sometime. I have no idea what kind of channel that would be.

Problem question:

In Thunderbird 64-bit POP3, the font changes to blue for every second email, including in replies. Can you tell me how to display every email in black? Only the second email in the inbox is displayed in blue, so the text isn't blue when receiving emails. When composing, everything looks black. What do I need to change?

Question 2: Regardless of whether it's 32-bit, 64-bit, or any channel, I see updates to the latest version, and in the program itself, there's an option to view older updates, but everything is white. I only see white and nothing else. Is this intentional? I can't see the update, but it's still current?


``` Thanks for the information
