Hello,

Referring to your article https://mzl.la/3TS8WcA (Import settings and data into Thunderbird for Android) . The first step is : Export Thunderbird Desktop settings

  Click ≡ > Tools > Export for Mobile. 

However, I am running version 128.3.3esr (64 bits) "Nebula" and the menu "Export for Mobile" isn't available under "Tools" as mentioned in the article.

Please advise

Thunderbird puts a LOT of my mail into Junk/Spam boxes and I am missing some important stuff. Rather than go hunting for stuff I missed in other mailboxes, I'd rather deal with them as they come in. I've checked online and turned off everything I can find to prevent the Junk filters from working, but stuff is still showing up in Junk/Spam filters. What do I need to do to turn it ALL OFF? Thank you.

Hi, I am new to actively using Thunderbird. It's been my backup in case Outlook fails (which it does with some regularity). I've been using Outlook for many years and have finally given up with all its problems (crashes, loss of data, and lastly, loss of my entire .pst file!). I may be doing something wrong in Thunderbird, but here is what is happening: 1. It prints incoming emails as pages of what looks like code and no message details. 2. It prints outgoing emails OK, but the header contains a lot of useless code. 3. I like to be able to use other fonts for things like signature etc., but can't find how to do that. So, what am I doing wrong and how do I fix it? Any advice will be very much appreciated.

The text size of all my menus is so small I have to squint to read them. Surely there is a way to make that text larger?

I found a post where it said to go into General and then way down to the bottom and click on that Config box. I did that but what was supposed to be there as stated in that post was not there so I didn't go any further with that.

I've got to do something to make it larger. Please help if you can.

Just been upgraded to current Supernova on a laptop while away (misclick by family member) and can't back out til I'm home, so really struggling with all those topics that were hot a year ago and now archived.

But specifically with message threading.

I have never used threading ever on any of my clients. I organise with subfolders, deleting and archiving because my primary index has always been date or sender I have here 6 email accounts and about 500 folders and subfolders.

Magically post upgrade they all seem to have threaded view enabled and that, along with the changes in the highlighting of new messages, the garish styles used and the loss of screen real estate on a small laptop are making everything take five times as long while I try to find fixes but mainly workarounds to get at the information I need.

Please, can anyone confirm that threading has been turned on by default in Supernova (If so I'd love to know why but that's for another day and the grumpy old man forums) Please can anyone tell me a way to quickly disable this across all my email accounts and subfolders - one command per account would be acceptable but a command per subfolder is useles to me.

...and for when I get back to base, now we're over a year from Supernova hitting the streets, can anyone confirm whether I can just downgrade the Thunderbird installation or am I screwed with new TB data structures and need to delete all and just install the old client, recreate the accounts and just sync with the Imap servers again.

Appreciate these Qs have probably been asked before but having spent 45 minutes searching, I've only found partial answers and I need to spend time on using and doing.

Thanks

At the bottom of each 'card' for an email in 'card view', there's an entire like of empty space. Given that each card is only three lines high, that means 1/3rd of it is wasted and my display view for emails shows only 66% of the emails it could. That is not helpful.

Is there any way to get rid of that giant empty line?

Is there a way to cleanup perfs.js? I was looking at the file, 3788 lines, that contains printer information for printers that do not exist.

I've been using TB over 24 years and it has grown through four systems. A system replacement involves a new CPU, mother board and C: drive. Data exist on other drives that are moved. Sometimes the content is copied from old drives to newer faster larger drives.

References to software that no longer exists user_pref("plugin.flash.path", "C:\\WINDOWS\\SysWOW64\\Macromed\\Flash\\NPSWF32_32_0_0_465.dll");

Some sections look like they have been replicated further down.

Entries that look like they have accumulated over time.

user_pref("mail.smtpservers", "smtp50,smtp32,smtp52,smtp45,smtp10,smtp38,smtp19,smtp25,smtp39,smtp6,smtp24,smtp16,smtp33,smtp18,smtp9,smtp2,smtp29,smtp7,smtp1,smtp13,smtp17,smtp12,smtp5,smtp4,smtp3,smtp15,smtp20,smtp21,smtp23,smtp26,smtp27,smtp28,smtp30,smtp35,smtp36,smtp37,smtp40,smtp41,smtp43,smtp44,smtp46,smtp47,smtp48,smtp51,smtp53,smtp22,smtp8,smtp11,smtp14,smtp31,smtp49,smtp42,smtp54");

Also, is there documentation about the various entries in prefs.js? user_pref("mail.server.server1.ageLimit", 1); user_pref("mail.server.server10.ageLimit", 30);

Just to mention a few.

Thanks
