Thunderbird Support Forum

My last update Thunderbird (111/112) changed layout UI to "Supernova" (I think, it's changed now), which uses 2 lines per message (with no more detail Tabs)

I HATE IT

I want my compact 1 message 1 line back

How do I do that? Is that even possible?

Using Thunderbird 102.9.0 (64-bit), Windows 10

To clarify what I mean in my title: I've set up a message filter that is supposed to search in the body that contains a word. I know the word is in the body, but yet the filter is not being triggered.

I have tried a different word that has spaces before and after and it seems to work, so I guess that's the problem, but how can I allow thunderbird to work when there's different characters before or after the word also?

I used to be able to have a few months of incoming emails in Thunderbird. As updates came in, my settings got all messed up and I am lucky to have a few emails in my inbox. No good to search because there are not many there. My internet provider has very little support for Thunderbird, so I cannot reset my preferences to keep my emails in the inbox. Sometimes emails don't send, and the app has become a real hassle. I had used it close to 20 years and have given repeated donations to Mozilla. How can we get our Thunderbird back to being a good email app, like it used to be?

Hi,

I'm not sure the topic I chose is the best, but...

I have many(!) accounts and it's become a bit unwieldy. I would like to know if there is a way to set up my main window so I can see my favorite inboxes at the top of the list, but in a unified view. Then the rest can be "un-unified." The current unified view shows all the inboxes and there are too many to sift through. I would like a few prioritized ones to be grouped together. The rest can be grouped (unified) separately.

Thanks,

L

I am pretty sure that at one time mouse-over on the From field would show the sender's address. I am running 102.9.0 (32-bit) and it is not doing that, so I would like to know how to turn it on ? Given it works in Gmail, Yahoo and AOL, this is a pretty common feature.

And I see this as kind of a Security issue as it means I have to open the message to see if the email address is bogus or not. For example, I just got an email from "ADT Security Services <laughing@n4.funnyeditor.com>" , which shows up in From as "ADT Security Services", and accidentally clicked on Unsubscribe. It obviously did not go to ADT.

Thanks Jack

Thunderbird used to have a great edit address GUI. Simple - all on one screen. Now it is on the bottom, one block at a time and all the data is far apart vertically. And above that is a dark screen of other addresses I don't about. YOU screwed up a perfectly clean product to make it the end all data base. I used to recommend it to others. No more. Carl Keil

Hi, I’m using a software that generates customer invoices to be sent by email then sends to thunderbird. Are email server only allows us to send 200 emails an hour. Is there any way to set thunderbird to delay each email I think by 4 seconds Many thanks

To solve another problem, I changed "Message Archives" in Account Settings from "Other" to my email address. But next time I booted up the computer, the change reverts to "Other". Is there a way to make this change permanent or must I make this change on boot up?

The yahoo mail/att.net account I'm having this issue with is set up using IMAP. The yahoo mail/att.net SPAM folder is not being pulled down into Thunderbird. This has caused me to miss deadlines because I was unaware that important emails were being marked as spam by yahoo mail/att.net. How do I fix this?
