The SEND button has vanished in Thunderbird. I don't recall changing anything or performing any updates, though my memory is getting to be unreliable.. In addition, the LINK button has vanished as well. I imagine I did or am doing something stupid and it's an easy fix, but what that might be totally escapes me..

When writing a new message, the Menu bar does not display so I cannot Send a composed message. This happened all of the sudden, and I have unsuccessfully searched to find out how to restore the Menu Bar. My 32 bit Thunderbird is up to date. Up to date Windows 11, & Firefox (default browser). Thanks for your help. Bob

I went to View and tool bars... Composition was already enabled. Alt and F10 did not reveal "Send." I tried to use the "Customize" menu and it did not include "Send." I do appreciate your help, even if everything suggested so far has not worked. My fear is that I may have to delete my Thunderbird in its entirety and re-install. If I do this, is there a way for me to save my address book? Is there still a way for me to get my Send back.

I may have to just settle using <Ctl> Enter on my keyboard. Bill

Greetings,

I just downloaded Thunderbird onto my new laptop. I use AOL as my mail server (not voluntarily; they own the verizon.net email domain). This is also my 1st foray into IMAP.

On Thunderbird, there are two "Drafts" folders (identical spelling). My draft emails go to one of the two. I cannot unsubscribe from either by using the any of the methods I found on here (including: uncheck, close Subsribe, close the program, wait a few mins, then open the program). The result is that both "Drafts" folder remain on the LH panel and both remain checked in the Subscribe window.

An interesting note is that the properties of the "Drafts" folder that does not receive draft emails is: "imap://w5mt%40verizon.net@imap.aol.com/Draft" with the Name in the Folder Properties window as "Drafts" (this cannot be changed in the Folder Properties window). The properties of the "Drafts" folder that does receive draft emails is: "imap://w5mt%40verizon.net@imap.aol.com/Drafts" with the same Name, "Drafts".

Just to make things more entertaining, AOL Mail also has two "Drafts" folders; one is in the list of folders below Inbox and does not receive draft emails, the other is in the Hidden Folder List and that is where draft emails go. The "Draft" in the main folder list can't be manipulated (e.g. moved). The one in the Hidden Folder List can't be moved to anywhere outside the Hiden Folder List.

In Thunderbird, I would just like the "unused, undesired" "Drafts" folder to either be deleted or hidden. At present, neither option seems possible.

Thoughts appreciated.

Thanks Matt T

My send button has disappear from my Thunderbird Email Client. I can still send messages by using <Ctl> Enter, but I would still like to get my send button back. Everything works well, including my "send later" add on.

I have reloaded Thunderbird, I have rebooted my system and <Send> is still gone.

Any ideas on how I can get it back , without deleting my program and re-installing it.

Sometimes an email I receive contains text whose right margin and text is chopped off. I thought this was because the emails were formatted for Google's gmail, but I just received an email from Thunderbird itself that is truncated this way. What's going on?

I'm enclosing a screen shot. I can also send the .eml file if that's helpful.

I have been using Thunderbird since over 7years on pop. I am facing issue since few days. I Have my personal mail linked to my website hosted on a unix server. I use thunderbird mails latest version. All sent mails were earlier visible in Sent folder. But now since a week only yesterday's mails are visible. All previous mails are in a subfolder by year 2026 in Archive. This makes it difficult to search sent emails. While this is not an issue for the Inbox where I can see emails from 2017.

Please suggest how can I restore all my previously sent emails since always, to my Sent folder.

Since some time my standard number of print copies in Thunderbird has changed from 1 into 2. I have to adapt this number each time I print. How can I change this back?
