Hi, just asked how to create distribution lists (mailing lists) David responded with the solution and asked for the URL I was refering to so it could be corrected. Not sure how else to get it to him so here it is. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-create-and-use-mailing-lists-thunderbird#w_create-a-mailing-list

Although OK 2 days ago, I am no longer receiving emails on one of my email addresses Instead, I am asked for a new password. I would certainly do that but I don't know how. Google tells me to click om the hamburger icon and then how to get to "saved passwords". But when I click on "show Passwords", thinking I might be able to change an email PW there, I am asked to verify my identity and provide a password. I haven't a clue what password is wanted here. My simple Thunderbird PW I set up many years ago does not work. So how do I change my Password for my Email address that no longer works?

While transferring Mozilla Thunderbird from my old MAC computer (OS 10.11, TB 78.14) to my new MAC computer (OS 12.7.6, TB 128.1.1) everything went well except that the “inbox” for 2 of my main accounts were not placed at the top of the left hand column with my other account inboxes. I found them in the account “envelopes” at the bottom of that left hand column. 1. How can I move them back to the top of the left column under the “main general inbox”? 2. How can I reorder these inboxes so that my main inboxes are at the top? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Can no longer send/receive email. Error message about "certificates", ports?, IMAP? settings......... Have tried various combinations and receive a variety of error massages.

After taking the latest update to Mac OS 15.0 - Sequoia I am not able to pull up any resources on my home network. I'm not sure if it was just added in this latest version, but there appears to be a privacy setting under Settings > Privacy and Security > Local Network that is likely the culprit I've discovered after testing another browser (MS Edge) that was having the same issue. The only issue for me is Firefox doesn't show as an app on that list for me to enable the setting so I can work with my local resources. Hoping someone can help.

Hi,

At my work, we use Windows AppLocker to allow only trusted code to be executed. Firefox works great in this environment, but I do have a request.

We were regularly getting notices of untrusted code being attempted from the "%windir%\temp\NS?????.tmp\" folder, which was a mystery to us for a long time. We finally tracked the cause back to "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe", which extracts DLLs (e.g. system.dll, shelllink.dll, userinfo.dll and accesscontrol.dll). It's my pleasure to report that the extracted DLLs ARE signed (btw, thank you so much for that!!). However, I had an embarrassingly hard time getting to this point since the code is code only exists temporarily, and I sadly never had the thought that NS might mean Netscape.

Incase there are others in my situation, I was wondering you'd like to prepend the .tmp folder name to include moz- or Mozilla?

I think there may be others in my situation, since our instance that followed the best practice of exempting all DLLs in Program Files from the exclusion policy, and since Firefox keeps all DLLs in Program Files, these were the only Firefox DLLs being checked.

Thank you for 30 years of a great product!

Hello, I recently bought a MacBook Air 2024 with G3 chip (Sonoma 14.6.1) and used Time Machine to transfer all the data from my previous Apple MacBook Air from 2015 (Mojave 10.14.6) to the new computer. This also transferred my Thunderbird profile folder. It has the extension .default and an 8-digit combination of letters and numbers in front of it. Since the old version of Thunderbird no longer ran on Sonoma, I installed Thunderbird 115.15.0 and then opened Thunderbird on the new MacBook Air. Since then, Thunderbird has been taking an extremely long time to open (much longer than on the old MacBook Air with Mojave. Yesterday I updated to 128.2.0esr, which didn't help either. I deleted a deactivated extension in the add-ons, so that there are now no extensions, only a few dictionaries that I deleted as a test, which also did not bring any improvement. Switching off the hardware acceleration, clearing the cache and changing the themes did not improve the situation either. With the themes, I can only switch between dark, light and system theme - automatically. I checked and made sure that Thunderbird actually loads the .default profile folder from my old computer as the active profile. However, Thunderbird has also automatically set up a second profile with the extension .default-release. Could this be causing the problem? My active profile folder has a size of 15.21 GB and the new .deault-release profile folder has 18.6 MB. Both profile folders are located in Library/Thunderbird/Profiles I am quite desperate and hope that someone can help me. Thank you very much!

I have been assiduously marking all the junk and non-junk items coming into my junk mailbox for over a month. The situation was better, the volume of junk mail was decreasing by half every two weeks. Now it is rising again to pre-thunderbird levels. Has something happened to the junk mail filter to stop it from working? Why does it take so long to identify junk. The same words keep appearing: debt, lawn, lawyer, cancer, zantac, loans, credit, glasses, frames, windows, insurance, fitness. If I can spot these why can't a the filter. Honestly, this spammer is driving me nuts. My account is with hotmail.com.

Right now there is an annoying hybrid Reopen Closed Window or Tab feature on the Ctrl+Shift+T hotkey. But Reopen Closed Window already had the Ctrl+Shift+N hotkey, even prior to this change. I can't find anywhere to change this behavior.

Why is Firefox Browser no longer an acceptable browser to access some on-line accounts? Business entities are no longer recognizing Firefox. When utilizing another browser connectivity is no issue.

On my Mac with current OS X update, Firefox is great except for one website: kaiserpermanente.org - it will not respond. Attached is a copy of the Firefox response page when I try to login, or ask about cookies, or anything besides their home page. PS, everything works perfectly on my i-phone.

Thanks.

Hi!

I've been a Firefox user ever since I've had an internet connection (probably around 2008). Whenever I would do a clean Windows installation every 1 or 2 years, I remember I would have my passwords, history, and extensions synced. Today I performed a clean reinstall again after maybe 2 years and I don't have any of my old history, passwords, extensions.

I'm a bit desperate, I have really important stuff saved over the years. I use Tree Style Tabs and I've customized my browser client to fit my needs and it was perfect, but I seem to have lost everything and I don't know what happened. It didn't even cross my mind something like this would happen.

Is there anything I can do? I have old emails from 2018 and 2021 from Firefox Accounts which show I used the same email.

Today when I tried to log-in into Firefox Accounts from inside the browser (button at the top right corner) it seemed that none of my passwords worked, so I clicked the "Forgot email" password and set-up a better one, but once logged in there was no sync with the old data I had. Then I thought maybe I had the wrong account so I logged in with my Google/Gmail account but there was nothing there as well.

Is there something I can do? I really need my old history, passwords, extensions, etc. Especially now as I'm graduating from University and I have important events coming up.

And no, I don't have any local profiles any more since I did a full, clean reinstall on my primary SSD. But I remember I've never used local profiles, everything would sync up again once I logged in. Maybe forgetting and resetting my password logged out my previous session and I lost it forever?

I hope you can help me sort this out.

Thank you for your time!
