Sometimes I want to change the color of a single sentence in an email I'm composing. I get the Color Selection from the menu, but the text color remains black. (I don't have this problem with any other software I use, including a couple of "ancient" software tools.)

Please advise.

I installed Thunderbird 136.4 (64-bit) today on a new windows 11 Pro PC. I created 4 - POP3 accounts. The 1 gmail address downloaded all older emails from the servers, but the 3 TDS email addresses only downloaded a couple of months of emails. I can't find a setting that will find and download older emails. I checked the online TDS accounts and they have years of emails on them. Anyone else have that problem? Is there a solution anywhere?

I updated, then I un-installed, then re-installed Ver 136, but still no confirmation request. after shift -delete. Highlighted Messages were immediately deleted with no confirm message displayed. What do I do to reinstate the "confirmation required" prompt?

During my messing around while trying to solve a UI problem arising from a migration to a new-to-me used Mac, I found a way to change the font size in the "Subject" field of e-mails in their own window, and as an experiment made it larger. It did not change the other problem, which has been solved.

Now I can't re-find that place in any of the settings, and want to change it back to the default. Please, someone, anyone, where is it?

Using TB 136.0...

Every few months, my message sorting will switch to threaded mode. It did it again within the last couple of days.

I thought maybe it reverts to defaults whenever an update comes through, but update history shows my last update was Sept. 12 (exactly a month ago), and I used T-Bird yesterday, and messages were not threaded then.

I'm thinking that if I change the defaults to "unthreaded", this would stop happening, but I'm curious if it's common for it to randomly switch to the default irrespective of updates.

Would the computer rebooting (whether manually or automatically for, say, Windows updates) cause it to revert to defaults - is that what's going on?

Please add a feature to disable the unread message counter on certain folders. I don't want to see how many messages I have in the Trash folder, they're in this folder because I don't want to read them, but this counter annoys me

Hello,

I wanted to customize my Firefox new tab with a local HTML file, such as "/path/to/my/index.html". It was possible to use this workaround: https://github.com/Jangsoodlor/Firefox-New-Tab-Config/tree/main https://github.com/Jangsoodlor/Firefox-New-Tab-Config/tree/main

Which implied a configuration file (sometimes named "autoconfig.cfg", "firefox.cfg", "local-settings.cfg" depending on the guide since the name is arbitrary) with javascript code. In the new Firefox 136, this code fails to execute due to a new API being used.

If you want to customize your new tab, follow the previous guide, but on the configuration file write this code instead:

// My new tab
try {
  const ff = {};
  ChromeUtils.defineESModuleGetters(ff, {AboutNewTab: "resource:///modules/AboutNewTab.sys.mjs"});
  ff.AboutNewTab.newTabURL = 'file:///path/to/my/index.html';
} catch (e) {ChromeUtils.reportError(e);}

Note that the file must start with a comment

Adapting the "/path/to/my/index.html" to your needs.

Thanks to @mkaply (github) on this thread https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/discussions/1190 for the new API method.

I post this here in case someone has the same issue, because is quite recent and hard to find on the internet.

If this is possible, how do I create filters for incoming emails from specific writers and/or subjects to go directly to specific folder/sub-folders? (I'm looking through the info here, but haven't come across this.)

I've used TB for years, but never had this problem until I had to download and install the latest version (after one of my laptops crapped out). When replying to an email, everything works correctly EXCEPT when I try to change the color of my typed text, it will not display the new color. I have no idea if it's changed on the recipient's end or not, but it always used to show the new color on my screen. Everything else seems to working beautifully, as usual . . .

Whenever I open a message from the inbox into its own window, the message text and images are tiny and unreadable until I zoom (Shift-Cmd-+) them larger. And when I reply to a message, the text is also starts out tiny, but gets larger when I Zoom it up with the original message. Similarly, the column-header icons of the inbox are tiny, while the text is OK.

All the rest of the interface is normal and readable, except for the tiny text and buttons in the interface-command/confirmation boxes.

I have experimented with the suggestions in these question-replies, but to no avail:

I can adjust the font size and density from the "hamburger menu", just fine. And the MacOS 15.3.n-on-Intel settings seem right.

What am I missing? What else is there to change?

Thanks in advance... Alexander, long-time T'bird user

How do I stop Firefox from opening Finder in a new window? I don't want to have to go back and forth between windows. The same thing happens when I open a PDF. Thanks.

Hello,

I tried to change the position of my signature, but I can't find the setting to this. I read this article for help. However, I can't find "Account Settings" in "Tools" menu(see attachments).

Is there any way to change the position of the signature?

I have tried the delete key, I have dragged items to the trash I have trried control clicking What do I have to do to remove items from the Spaces Toolbar $#^@%@$#@%!!!?????

One Gmail account imported all of the settings, including the Inbox. The other Gmail account recieves this:

Please sign in We'll redirect you to your email provider to sign in. You need to grant the app access to your email account.

Sign in with Google

Then the following error, as it won't open to Google to confirm (it did with the other account)

Please sign in Oauth sign in failed OAuth 2.0 is currently not supported with this provider Retry

I cannot add a Gmail account to Thunderbird (136.0 (64-bit) JPN) because the message "Verifying password" keeps appearing. Please let me know how I can resolve it.

Thank you.

I can't control the font size in messages displayed in conversations on the main display. Ctl-Shift-+ enlarges the space allocated to each conversation but doesn't change the font size. In a separate conversation window, things seem to be OK. T-bird 128.8.0esr (64-bit) : Conversations 4.2.4

Thanks for your help. --Len

I've created the email account, and it can send and receive emails ok. In FiltaQuilla, I have checked "Save message as file." On the screen that shows my incoming emails, I have right-clicked on the account, I click on New Folder, and I created "Sales." So, Sales shows under the main entry, but there is not a physical folder named Sales. Under Tools / Message Filters, I have it set to move to Sales under the main entry.

When the mail is received, it is moved to Sales. But... There is a file named "Sales" (which I assume contains all of the Sales emails), but there is not a physical folder. And I cannot find .eml files.

What am I leaving out?

(You'll notice in the attached screen shot that I have changed the default location.)

       Thank you.
