This has been consistent for over a week now. One folder brings TB to a halt if I try to open any message in it. I have many folders and many I rarely open so I can't be sure it's just this folder but certainly all other folders seem fine and fast. This particular folder did have many messages in it but I deleted them all, accepting that I didn't really need them. I then repaired the folder but was a bit shocked to find the problem continues. The folder says it is 20.9Mb and that it contains three messages each of 7Mb. That's plausible as it just gets one Email per day from my server with some information. The size can vary quite a lot. I could just delete the folder and recreate one with the same filter rules, or I could delete the filter rules before doing that, or ... what?! Technical is that it is TB 140.3.1esr running on a fairly powerful Kubutu machine with 64Gb and really nowhere near any resource limits. It's pulling messages from the one IMAP server and, as I say, everything else seems fine. Any thoughts welcome, TIA, Chris

Hello,

does anyone observe an issue that Thunderbird [140.4.0esr (aarch64) / macOS 26.0.1 (25A362)] freezes for 5 seconds after sending an e-mail? This is super annoying...

Hi I was using TB 142 without problems. When upgrading to 143 ou 144.B4 I have problems sending mails to all users after some times. Usually the first mails are sent immediatly but after around 10 mails, I have very slow response (varies from 5 sec to more than 1 minute and sometimes timeout). Usually quitting TB solves the problem but this is very annoying. I went back to 140LTS and sems to have no longer this problem. This was tested on many diffrent networks. I am running under Fedora release 42

Thanks

Latest version on W10 desktop machine.

1. Setting to open message in a new window does not work. Insists on making a new tab instead.

2. When Thunderbird window is active, kills attempts to use desktop icons for other programs.

3. Cannot minimize Thunderbird via taskbar. Have to hit minimize(-) from window.

Can any of these be remedied?

I have a message that is still listed after being deleted. When I highlight the messages listed above it and below it, I can see their contents with no problem. However, when I click on the "ghost message" listing in between them, I will see the contents of the last message viewed, not the contents of the ghost message that is highlighted.

Also, when I first open Thunderbird and highlight that ghost message first, the review pane is blank, like there is no message there. Then if I click on a different message, that message's contents will show in the preview pane. Then when I go back and click on the the ghost message listing, that pane is still showing the previous message's contents.

When I click on "delete" message, I get the constant blue indicator light in the lower right glowing and nothing happens.
