I am in sales and am constantly attaching various links to help and info pages inside of emails and I am tired of dragging them from my bookmarks toolbar inside of Firefox over to the message window. Is there any add-on or setup that will allow me to have my links readily available by hotkey, or maybe something like a bookmarks folder/bar inside of Thunderbird? I have looked and can't find a single thing!

Thanks.

I was wondering if there is anyway to rearrange the user interface in Thunderbird. I'd like to put my inbox folder on the left and the email opens on the right, so side-by-side instead of Ontop of the email. This is for a client who is switching from outlook and trying to make it as much like their outlook as possible.

Hello - this image has been working fine in my Thunderbird signature, since I installed the signature about 6-7 months ago:

However, last week my signature stopped displaying the above link/image. When I write a new message the above image is no longer displayed in my message, ie a broken link image is displayed, however, the rest of the signature text, and a second signature image, is displayed as normal. Using Thunderbird 24.4.0, latest version. Anyone know why this has happened now, after working correctly for about 6-7 months. Thanks in advance. Regards, Tony Brown

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 -

When I write or reply to an e-mail, the default spell check is always English. I always have to change it to the language I use for the used contact. Can the preferred language be saved for a recipient so that when I compose a message or reply to one, and the recipient exists in my contacts, it will automatically take the preferred language for this recipient?

Thanks in advance Freefox

How to remove images displayedwith message subject line?

I'm getting an increasing number of emails - mainly from businesses I deal with - that display a large image with the subject line of the mail when it appears in the message pane.

An example would be a music company I deal with has a picture of a guitar superimposed on the subject line.

This makes the message pane cluttered and I find it annoying.. Is there any way to prevent these displaying or better still prevent them from being downloaded?

TBird 52.9.1 (64 bit) on a Linux system

Thanks.

I would like to occasionally add emojis in the midst of or at the end of my emails. I can't find them in my tool bar. I think they should be under "insert" or "tools" or something like that. How can I make them available when wanted?

Every time I send an email I get a popup little window telling me its being sent and a copy has been copied to my Sent folder. After seeing this about 500 times I probably don't need to be notified of this anymore. Is there any way of disabling this wonderful and informative little feature?

I'm trying to create a signature text with a paragraph break.

The instructions and samples I find all show text where just hitting return apparently does the trick, e.g.:

"Thanks,

Bill Watson

Culver City"

When I space down (hit return) for a new line, it looks fine in the Tools/Accounts blank that I'm filling in. But when I open a fresh email to start writing, all the lines are smushed into one paragraph.

I've tried hitting return twice - no luck.

Am I running into some kind of character limit? My sig text is in essence a tiny FAQ about our company, with information every new contact will ask of us. Certainly not enough for a template; it's about five sentences. I'm trying to space down (paragraph break) before the last sentence - example:

"Our company deals in widget, thingies, and stuff. We have affiliates nationwide, with distribution centers in Hoboken, Newcastle, and French Lick. New affiliates are welcome. Best times to call us are midnight, midnight, and midnight, Sunday through Monday.

Our website doesn't work but our heart is in the right place."

It looks just like that when I'm creating it. On a new email, it looks like this:

"Our company deals in widget, thingies, and stuff. We have affiliates nationwide, with distribution centers in Hoboken, Newcastle, and French Lick. New affiliates are welcome. Best times to call us are midnight, midnight, and midnight, Sunday through Monday. Our website doesn't work but our heart is in the right place."

No return; no new para.

I'd create a v-card but I don't like sending introductory emails with an attachment. Besides, I'm curious why this isn't working!

Thanks!

The old notification was unobtrusive and listed multiple new emails, but the new one is big, bold yellow and only lists 1 email. Is there any way to customize the notification back to the way it was before T-bird 60.
