Hi,

I want to apply a Message Filter to all Messages where the "Cc" Field is empty. That means I want to filter all messages where I am the only official recipient .

If I look at the filters there is no way to Filter "Cc is empty" If I just leave the text field blank there is no effect.

I learned about the "FiltaQuilla" Plugin:


I enabled "Header Regex match" screenshot-1099

Now if I go to "Tools -> MessageFilters -> I can match "Header Regex Match"

I want to match "If Cc is empty" screenshot-1100 As I recall the "Cc" field is part of the header -> Can anyone help me to get the correct regular expression.

The Color Folders add-on was one of my favorite add-ons and worked in Thunderbird 60.0. Now, with the release of 60.3.0, it is now automatically disabled with the message: "... incompatible with Thunderbird 60.3.0"

If I had known this would happen I would not have upgraded. What was changed and why? I could not find a substitute add-on. Why doesn't T'bird publish a list of add-ons that won't work after an upgrade? I did not see anything so critical about the actual update and could have lived without it.

I also don't know why there were so many gui design changes. They were not necessary and, IMHO, made the gui less attractive. Are such changes evaluated in beta releases? Thanks to any and all who have answers to these.

Hi. Is there a way to select multiple emails and reply/forward/compose to all of them at once?

Consider this scenario: You've asked multiple people to RSVP for something. Let's say you have 20 replies. I'd like to be able to select all 20, and be able to compose a message to them, instead of having to copy/paste each of the 20 emails into a new reply.

Please advise as to if this feature already somehow exists... or maybe even an extension that does this?

Thanks.

I recently installed Thunderbird because I need to batch print a folder of emails. Apparently, older versions of Thunderbird allowed this function; but I can't find this print function on 24.4.0. I also have not been able to find any batch-printing add-ons via Mozilla.

Does anyone know of any reliable freeware that will allow me to print multiple email conversations/threads at once?

Thanks

Using TB 60.3.1 32 bit Windows 10

After this update, I have to allow remote content - even if I allowed it from the sender in the past, and even if the sender is already in my address book.

Did installing this update essentially delete all my previous "allow" selections? Is there a way to allow remote content if the sender is already in my address book?

Thank you -

How to turn off attachment size warnings.

I call Thunderbird from a program to send out emails in batches. When an attachment exceeds approximately 14 MB, Thunderbird stops sending and requires manual intervention. The messages become stacked in a queue. I then must click the "Write" button for each message. As I do this I get a warning message dialog advising that the message exceeds 20 MB and I must confirm. Once I confirm, the message will send normally.

How do I avoid this requirement to address the warning dialog?

Is it possible to open a specific mail file in Thunderbird from the command line (Mac OSX)?

I see `/Applications/Thunderbird.app/Contents/MacOS/thunderbird` has a `-file` option, but that doesn't do what I was hoping - it opens a Compose window with the file as an attachment.

Thunderbird does have the ability to properly open and display these email files if I open a given file via the "Open Saved Message" menu item under File in the UI.

Is there a CLI equivalent to the File -> Open Saved Message action?

I'm a teacher, and there are very strict privacy rules regarding email. I regularly have to send class emails to all parents, and I need to use BCC. I have on more than one occasion nearly sent out an email to TO rather than BCC, which would be a breach of privacy. I've been using the excellent the "Use BCC Instead" addon, but this is no longer supported. Is there another way to set the default address to BCC? This is very important to me, as school takes privacy (especially in regard to students) very seriously.

I am setting up a client to receive emails from an online service request form.... he's not tech saavy and wants all incoming emails to print out on his printer upon arrival. When he gets in at the end of the day, he wants a stack of printed emails/forms from which he can return calls. I know this can be done in MS Outlook (ugh)... hoping you can do the same or better!! I'm a longtime user and rely on Tbird...

Good afternoon!

Since the last update, the Latin dictionary add-on by Leszek Życzkowski has disappeared. I tried to reinstall it and I am getting the message it could not be installed "because it is not compatible with Thunderbird 60.3.0."

The Latin dictionary add-on is a great tool and I use it regularly for private e-mails and as a quick spell-check for my articles in Latin. It should remain available to the public. It would be a pity to see it go.

Kind regards, Gregory
