I have placed a question, did not get any response and can't even find my questiomn. Cost me masses of time to scrol throughj the forum

How can I find my questiomns

Using Desktop version 140.10.esr with Windows 11, I am pasting a link to a gifted article from The Atlantic. If I paste the link into a messenger window, it works -- but when I paste it into a newly composted email in Thunderbird, it's blank. What's up?

How in the heck do you reach tech support for Thunderbird? I have NEVER in my life seen a company so elusive to contacting them. I appreciate the help in here, but there are times when a forum can't help and you need the actual company to be accessible to get that help.

I am about to that point of uninstalling it and throwing it out the office window.

Originally I installed LINUX MINT Cinnamon 22.3 and all worked extremely well this was on JAN 5 2026, Installed a series of updates and everything was fine. Installed the last update and it changed everything from the font size and type of font to startup and now I have only use of one (1) display monitor whereas both were working without an issue before. Both are working fine and and are plug in properly and have power. I can not seen to add a second monitor. Please advise, thanks

Hi all

First time user here, so forgive me if I do or ask something stupid!

I'm the old fashioned kind of user, so I like to have some kind of manual to read through at my leisure, thus saving me from asking daft questions on forums like this.

I have found something at Floss, but it seems to be in a large number of sections which I guess I could doenload individually but it seems a considerable effort.

Can anyone suggest where I could download such a manual? I'm not bothered too much if it relates to an older version of Thunderbird, I just want to have a handy reference to the program in general.

Thanks in advance for any responses.

Dear Team,

I am continuously receiving email notifications from the Bugzilla system regarding Firefox bug updates. I am not involved in these bug reports and would like to request that my email address be removed from the notification list or component watch. Kindly unsubscribe my email from all Bugzilla bug update notifications. Thank you for your assistance

Thunderbird is what Outlook was striving to be. It looks like Outlook, but out performs every thing I have tried. and it Works!!!!!!!!!!!! Cudo's Love this product.............................................................

Sometimes Thunderbird asks for a donation. But in order to donate I need the indication of a SEPA account. Other options are too cumbersome for me. Because this topic is not listed in the topic list, I have selected "Accounts".

ho appena inviato un post, replica ad una vostra risposta... purtroppo ho concluso con il button "solved the problem" ... per favore, ho giusto ri-raccontato il guaio, non è per nulla solved... non mollatemi, grazie. Giorgio Chiantore, 10015 Ivrea.

Thunderbird is so difficult to use. Please improve. I don't know how many users only continue with Thunderbird because they agree with your philosophy. Maybe a lot. I am always fight to make it work. You have to a geek to made perform in an easy way.

Of course there is no category for general concerns, so category choice is wrong by default, sorry about that.

The recent "year in review" included this attached bit. Does that mean that the Mozilla foundation is deciding to not allocate any of their overall revenue to Thunderbird and rely solely on user donations for it? If so, why does it own/manage Thunderbird? To me the entire purpose of an entity like Mozilla managing a project like Thunderbird is like most companies, to be able to allocate extra revenue from more lucrative projects to ones that are less so. Seems that the userbase of a project you own doesn't matter, money^s somehow better allocated to stuff that nobody asked for?

As the title suggests, I find this forum incredibly bad. It's so difficult to even get to the point where I'm able to post a question, I assume that most who search for help give up and browse for a different forum to get help.

Speaking of other forums - I'm not sure if this is supposed to be the official place to get help if you have problems with your Thunderbird install. There is also this one, but that seems to be strictly a place for developers? Or is that for users reporting bugs too? If that other forum is for developers, then my next question would be if Thunderbird developers even read about posted bugs in this forum? If not, then what's the point of this anyways?

In short, I would like to know if this right here is indeed supposed to be the "official" place for Thunderbird users to report bugs and make suggestions or should this be done somewhere else. Just the fact that I as a user can't tell already says a lot.

Please Mozilla or Thunderbird - shut this down and create a better forum for your users! For example, other software that I use has discourse forums that work very well for connecting users and developers. If you can create a better place for your user base to come together, report bugs, make suggestions and give feedback, you make the whole experience around using Thunderbird more enjoyable and ultimately gain more users.

Thank you for your work on Thunderbird.

I use the email address [email 2 removed]@interia.pl. The account is configured in Thunderbird on a Lenovo laptop. The laptop is protected by ESET Smart Security antivirus software. As recommended by Eset, I added ESET VPN to my protection. After enabling ESET VPN, the address doesn't configure. It requests a password. I receive messages that the server is disconnecting. Other addresses work. Disabling ESET VPN causes the address to work. This problem doesn't occur on my other Outlook email client. I would appreciate your help in resolving this issue. Sincerely, Paweł Jędrzejewski

Hello

I just tried to make my first ever donation to Thunderbird, 3 USD per month which won't leave me short at the end of this or any month, (rather than a 36 USD donation once), but it got refused as the minimum amount is 5 USD

Very surprised by this. I know 3 USD per month is not a lot but if every user donated instead of just 3%, it would be a fortune for TB
