Hello, When I open the window to write a new email the toolbar is missing. I can't see the buttons for "send" or "attach" or any other options.(you can see it on the picture) How can I restore the toolbar? Thank you for your help. Best regards, Bokor Vanessza

I don't know Macs.... in Windows, the Alt key . I did find this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1095601 which indicates there is a setting in Settings>general to do that. Please check and let me know. Thanks.

in the compose screen, click view>toolbars and tick the composition toolbar if menu bar is not shown, press Alt key

Unfortunately there's no view. There's nothing above the email address. Next to it it's "copy" etc but nothing that could help...Anything else? Also I have a MacBook!
