Just what it says in the summary. I went to settings to check/change something, and found this new (I think) message in colour at the top of the page. I have no idea what it means, as I am not part of any organization. The statement is a link, and when I click on it, it takes me to the page shown in the image What if anything, does this mean? Do I need to do anything about it?.

So I have a list of folders some of which are the default folders some are custom created.

When I try to re-order these it is very hit or miss: I select a folder, drag it to where I want it to go, wait for the blue placement line to appear and it may or may not re-locate. Or I simply can't move the folder I want to move and so I move folders around it in order to achieve the layout I want.

It is as if success depends on whether Thunderbird is in the mood for a particular move to happen and I find it really frustrating. It should or shouldn't work, it shouldn't be that it works sometimes.

What is going on with this?

Thunderbird version 140.11.0esr (64-bit): I can't make new message filters

The oversized menu box cuts off the the "Save" key and I can't re-size the Message Filter/New Filter box nor can I slide it up for access to the button on the very bottom. Windows 10 Home, Version 22H2, Installed on 9/14/2021, OS Build 19045.6466.


I've tried a dozen fixes suggested by Duck AI and none had any effect on the Filter box. Here’s a concise list from Duck AI of every fix I tried:

   Hold Shift while opening the Filter menu (compact popup).
   Shorten long filter names (Tools > Message Filters).
   Change system UI scale (Windows Display scaling).
   Toggle toolbars / layout to reclaim space (View > Toolbars / Layout).
   Use Tools > Message Filters dialog (resizable) instead of the menu.
   Add userChrome.css rules (multiple variants) in profile/chrome/userChrome.css to force max-height, scrollbars, reduced font/padding:
       Generic menupopup rule (max-height: 420px, font-size: 11px).
       Targeted rule including .filter-menu-popup and #createFilterFromPopup (max-height: 300–520px, font-size: 10–11px).
       Final variant replacing values with 360px (no effect).
   Attempted diagnostics via screenshots and Developer Toolbox (Ctrl+Shift+I) — determined screenshots showed Filters dialog, not popup.
   Determined the "Create Filter From" list is likely a native Windows popup (userChrome.css cannot style).
   Workarounds proposed:
       Use the resizable Message Filters dialog to create filters manually.
       AutoHotkey script (Ctrl+Alt+F) to open New Filter and pre-fill From/To/Subject from the selected message (provided full script).

I had received several emails from an individual over the past few weeks. All emails displayed in the inbox (on my desktop computer) as they should. This afternoon suddenly all of these emails disappeared from the desktop inbox. The emails are still on the server and are and can be viewed in the inbox on my laptop but not on my desktop. If I use the quick filter function in the desktop the emails are there but not in the inbox. I assume some sort of filter accidentally was activated (I did not attempt any filter changes) but I can't find how to remove this filter function so the emails again appear in the inbox as they should. Please provide detailed instructions how to get these emails to reappear in the desktop inbox.

How to toggle body text to a fixed lenght font with a single click ?

Hello,

This would have been a reply to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1390397?utm_source=chatgpt.com which is one of the top google results for "Thunderbird make font fixed length addon"

Some html text is hard to read, I would like a button, to make it all one more readable font. (font override toggle button to variable lenth font) and a button to make it a fixed length font (font override toggle button to fixed lenth font) Maybe a button to also strip formatting like bold/italic/coloring etc..

The solution

Preferences > General > Language & Appearance > Fonts & Colors > Default font > Advanced > Font Control > Use fixed width font for plain text

Which is too deep into the setting to casually flip for one message and then bring back to normal. I don't want this forever, just when there's one hard to read email.

I don't use Archives or Templates. There is no folder on my servers that correspond to these and they are not subscribed in my IMAP settings.

They don't appear in the per-account view. But they somehow appear in the unified folder view.

I am not able to figure out how to make them disappear.

Help.

Threading - why does it keep coming back? I have just realised it's back again on my Thunderbird and I never knowingly turned it back on.

Why does Mozilla keep trying to force it on users?

This has been an annoyance for users for several years now and the message has still not got through it would seem.

For an open and user-facing organisation, this is strange behaviour that I just do not comprehend. Include it if you want, but make it optional and easily so.

I know this is only the community forum, not Mozilla, but one would think that a wise organisation would keep an eye on what their customers were saying & feeling.

Hi,

I have been using Thunderbird as my preferred email client since around 2004 on Linux, macOS and Windows.

I am current running Thunderbird 150.0.2 64-bit on macOS Tahoe 26.5 ( Intel ).

When I attempt to create a new 'Folder' or 'Sub Folder' on either an iMAP account or, more importantly, my 'Local Folder' the displayed dialogue box is sized incorrectly and I am unable to complete the action.

Specifically I can type into the 'Name' text box and see the 'Create as a subfolder of" drop down dialogue but the two buttons below are barely visible and I cannot select either with my mouse. Nor can I resize the dialogue box itself [ make larger ] to enable to be select either button.

I can use the <TAB> key to cycle thorough the various items and the <RETURN> key to select an option.

I have attached a sample image of the issue.

Thanks.

Hi,

I've just updated my Thunderbird for Windows to 151 and I got this nasty surprise (this is why I hate updates these days).

The message list in dark mode, in a table view, now has this awful pitch black background instead of the normal dark brown as it used to have. It looks OK in cards mode, but I don't like cards mode.

I certainly hope this is a bug and not by design. Can this be fixed, please? It looks terrible, it's hard to look at, like old Windows 10 dark mode or some high contrast accessibility mode.

Thank you!

What in the world are you thinking!?!

Firefox fails to obey OS-defined DNS and instead overrides this to use …….Cloudflare? Are you nuts?

Whoever told you Cloudflare is private or secure failed to educate you on Surveillance Capitalism.

For the love of all that is good in this world, rekey Firefox to allow user-defined DNS- whether that is through DHCP, manual config or a management profile.

For the past week, I've been trying to set Firefox as my default browser on Windows 11 Pro (I've been using Firefox for years), but after restarting, the Edge browser reappears, even for PDFs (we use Adobe Acrobat) and Paint for TIFF and JPEG files! It's outrageous that Microsoft is forcing users to use Edge. This never happened to me with Windows 7 or Windows 10. I'm completely dissatisfied with Microsoft's policy of forcing users to use Edge! I've tried configuring regedit, gpedit, taskchd, etc., in a thousand different ways, and after restarting, the intrusive Edge returns! Is there any way to prevent this? Mozilla should fight this! It's unacceptable that we have to be tied to Microsoft's monopolistic whims!. Do you have any solution? Thank you very much!! Leonardo

Hi, I've been using Thunderbird latest version for a few days. Too much I have a problem that is bothering me. I have 20 accounts and if I choose Unified Folders, on the six of Tunderbird I see only a part of the Accounts and precisely 14. To solve my problem I also used the "Unified Folder Debugging" add-on but it didn't solve the problem. Why do I have this problem? I would like to use Unified Folders but I can't do it because I don't have any Accounts. Thanks for some info.

FF used to have a "Close right tabs" menu point. EXCELLENT. Fast. Useful. Since some time, feature creep has expanded that into "Close several tabs" and the sub-menu close right tabs close left tabs close all tabs

Minor point: I use close right all the time, never though close left or close all ("Close all" would be "move to start", then "close right", anyway) So, I go one level further down for nothing added.

Major point: Inadvertently closing to the left or closing all destroys a lot of tabs I do not want to go.

This new "feature" is annoying and harmful. At the very least, developers should ask users whether they actually want that stuff. Before spending/wasting time on it.

Now, "close left" and "close all" being unfortunately present: Is there a way to remove the two dangerous options and stay - as before - with just "Close right tabs"?
