Using Tbird 78.14.0 (64 bit) with Windows 10. I can no longer access the Page Setup screen properly. I suspect it's because I accidentally put a very big value in for the top margin. The print preview for even a short email says it's many pages, there's no text visible on any of those pages, the only part of the Page Setup screen visible is OK and Cancel at the bottom, and I can't get to the top of the screen. I've tried closing and re-opening Tbird to no avail. How can I get to the top of the Page Setup screen to fix the problem?

Hello,

I recently reinstalled Windows on my PC and had to upgrade Thunderbird to 128.3.0esr. Now, when I open an event from the Calendar, it opens in a tiny window with an Edit button. When I click on the Edit button, it opens the event in a slightly larger window that has to be manually resized in order to properly edit the description and other details. There is no standard "Maximize" icon on this Event window. In older versions, the Event simply opened as a new tab in the main UI, which was vastly more efficient and user friendly. Is there any way to reenable this functionality? The current functionality is a bit frustrating.

Thank you.

Hi dear Mozilla-Community,

I have run into the issue that is described here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Thunderbird/comments/1fdwv49/what_is_thunderbird_doing_to_fix_this_outlook_in/ and solved here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/microsoft-oauth-authentication-and-thunderbird-202

Now, the issue for me is that i cannot select the OAuth2-password option on my outgoing server option because it simply is not there (see screenshot attached - it's in German but you will get the idea). Ingoing has been changed (automatically, I suppose) to OAuth2 and works just fine but the outgoing is broken.

I am on the newest Nebula 128...esr.

What can I do? Thanks a lot in advance!

Best regards, Konrad

Installed TB on my new laptop, got `128.3.0esr` (64-Bit), and now I'm seeing this utterly wasteful layout where every email takes up three lines instead of one (see screenshot where the density has already been set to "Compact"). I was not able to find the setting to go back to the one-line layout. I've gone through all the view options and plenty of search results.

Im trying to change some folder text color pernamently, regardless of new or unread messages. I tried something like this for inbox but it seems to be depreciated.

1. folderTree > treechildren::-moz-tree-cell-text(folderNameCol, newMessages-true){

color: red !Important; }

What would be the correct way?

Hello, sorry, but Thunderbird has been a real pain for a few months! It takes up to 10!!! starts for everything to display correctly. I'm really thinking about changing. See the crazy screenshots! Best Regards Ronnie

Hello, How to hide particular email account in folder view if for all is set Local folders? I wold like to have Local folders view only instead of visible accounts. More over - I do not have Folder Panel Bar Best Zbigniew

Before the last update, when you assigned a colored label to the message (e.g., work, important, etc.), the entire title, header of the message, took the chosen color. Now you only see a small tag.

'The previous system was definitely more practical. Can it be reactivated?

Attached is a picture of the relevant setting where you can see it is indeed set to move deleted emails to a specified folder. I am using Thunderbird 128.2.3esr 64bit on Fedora 40 and a gmail email address. I can also not find any other settings that may be affecting this.

In my Linux installation, there is a folder /home/.thunderbird/<account name>/Photos It contains many small images of people in jpeg format. They have name similar to 69c143ed0a9180b5_1551971368866.jpeg or d36fef86-48fb-4fe5-b036-a42676e2e39f.VALUE=URI-JPEG. I do not know from where these files come, nor what purpose they serve, nor if they can be deleted without creating any problems. In particular, I would like to know if the creation of files in that folder can be disabled. If so, how? If not, can they be deleted without creating any issues?

As originally asked at [Mozilla's Discourse instance](https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/how-to-allow-thunderbird-to-render-columns-outside-the-viewbox/135399?u=rokejulianlockhart):

With 128, it appears you guys have taken away the ability to choose where our signature should be placed, as we could in 115.

Can you advise how I might get this functionality back?

My reply Signature

Original Quoted message

It makes no sense to me to have a signature below the quoted text.

Thank you

Ok, I have read several posts, and contacted support at mail.com. I have tried the fixes I have found. mail.com says I have it all set right. They have tested my account from another computer. They said they DO support Thunderbird.

I shut off my firewall. I shut off my anti-virus. We tried SSL, we tried STARTTLS. Just won't send. Said to check password, we did that. I sent mail.com screenshots of all my settings. They say it is all right. I can get mail from them but can't send. I needed POP3 to make sure I could save all the important emails to my computer AND offsite backup.

I'm baffled. They are baffled.

Prior to being pushed the Thunderbird update to Version 128.2.3esr this morning, I had always received a popup window to confirm message deletion. After the update this morning, I am not getting the confirmation window and I have not been able to find a setting that might have been turned off with the update.

The closest setting I can find is extensions.webextensions.ExtensionStorageIDB.migrated.confirmbeforedelete@caligraf which is set to TRUE.

Has this functionality been removed from Thunderbird? I sure hope not.

I am using following userChrome.css modification for zebra stripes:

/* Message List colors */ /* Odd rows color */

1. threadTree tr .card-container {

 background-color: #27272a !important;

} /* Even rows color */

1. threadTree tr:nth-child(2n) .card-container {

 background-color: #2d3237 !important;

}

It partly works, but I miss default system color in background, there is only border line. Please see attached images.

Many thanks in advance!

Microsoft require the incoming and outgoing servers to use the same authentication method which is OAuth2. This does not appear in the dropdown for Authentication method in my version of Thunderbird (128.2.3esr ). Is an update coming? I hope so as I cannot send messages directly from my laptop at present.

I solved this problem already by finding this thread previously :

https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questions/1399586

If your thunderbird window shrinks when being displayed on your internal laptop monitor but expands when displayed on an external monitor (or vice versa) it is because if the value for

layout.css.devPixelsPerPx (Edit -> Settings -> General -> (all the way down) Config Editor -> (search for) layout.css.devPixelsPerPx)

is set to a positive value. It seems like the value has a reverse effect in between internal and external monitors (shrink one and expands one).

To fix this issue, set the value for layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to -1

I am posting this question to display this solution to the public if anyone else experiences a similar issue.

Hello, On my old computer Thunderbird gave me two horizontal planes - the top one listed messages, the lower on showed the selected message text. On my new computer, the full screen shows just the list of messages but does not have thew lower pane to display the selected message. How do I reset this please? Grateful for any suggestions. Thanks, Paul
