Dark mode for the message body failed all of of a sudden.

- theme is set to dark - it works

- message view theme is set to dark - header is dark, body is light

- composer theme is set to dark - it works

Light theme works properly everywhere. I tried clearing cache, uninstalled/reinstalled, imported saved settings.

Heya - This issue has being going on for quite some time.

I have four pinned tabs (two of which I no longer use, ever) and often change up the visual theme of my browser as well. However, when I change these (unpin the tabs & change the theme to how I want it to be), when I open Firefox again after, it restores my old pinned tabs & old theme I don't want.

I have tried playing with the sync settings but to no avail.

On opening Firefox, when it asks me what account I want to use (I just have the one) it does visually still use the last saved theme from my previous session, but on logging in it changes back to the old theme (and old pinned tabs).

Thank you so much in advance & let me know if you need more info

Why doesn't Thunderbird clear the "newly downloaded" bit when archiving a message?

tl;dr: I'd like to argue that a user who executes the archive action has seen the email in question, and that executing this action means that the email is no longer "newly downloaded" and doesn't deserve the highest of visual markings anymore.

We're not talking about the read/unread bit here (the green dot and the grey numbers in the folder pane). We're talking about the "newly downloaded" aka. "new and unseen" bit (the yellow star/rhombus and the blue numbers in the folder pane).

When a new email arrives, it's marked as "newly downloaded" and the inbox lights up blue because of it. Fair enough. It's also unread, of course. I often archive emails right away without opening/reading them. But I have seen the subject line of course, and I have a pretty good idea of what the email is and why I don't read it. I have the message pane disabled, so I can easily select an email without it being displayed and being marked as read. In the past, I used the message pane combined with that "mark as read after 1min" setting.

Now when I archive the message, the archive folder lights up blue and when I go in there, the email that I just archived has a star/rhombus. But I don't want my archive folder to look interesting with a blue color only because I just moved an email into it. All the blue colors are supposed to be for things I haven't seen yet and still need to look at. In fact, any email I move to a place should not be able to make that place look blue. Blue color should be for things that appeared for other reasons.

I'm aware that switching folders (e.g. away from inbox and back to it) or restarting Thunderbird will clear this "newly downloaded" bit. But I'm not doing that. I stay in the inbox, I get emails, I read them or archive them immediately. And when a folder on the left lights up in blue (that can happen thanks to my filter rules), then I take a look at that one as well. My Thunderbird application runs for weeks.

I just updated to 159.0 TB seems to have a new annoying behavior. I have reproduced it on two different PCs.

I enter an address, then tab to the subject, and then the next tab should take me to the field where I can start typing my email. Instead it takes me to two horizontal blue lines just above that field. See image. The next tab takes me to the field where I can write. It's not a big problem but a new minor annoyance.

Thoughts? Am I missing something?

I use HTML as my signature. It has been working just find, but lately when people reply to me, their messages were coming in blue text. So today I changed the: Settings > General > Plain Text Messages > Quoted text formatting from blue colour to black (I have no idea how that was set to blue in the first place). that is all I did. Image attached of the change I made.

In any case, after that, when I tried to send a new email my HTML signature no longer displays the correct font (Pristina) but shows only variable text. The HTML file is not corrupt, it still looks fine in the actual file I saved, but, Thunderbird is changing it somehow. Even when I look back at sent files, Thunderbird is showing me the variable text and not Pristina.

Any assistance would be much appreciated. With thanks, NM

I have tried various suggestions, but they all seem to send me to menu options that just do not exist.This is a really old problem and I can't understand why it has never been properly addressed.

Automatic spacing is pretty much universally not standard (It does not occur here.)

So how do I stop auto/double spacing when composing a message, please?

For sometime now, I've been unable to use the any of the Halve commands via my keyboard.

Its set to Option + any of the arrow directions, and once it worked just fine but maybe it was after an update for Firefox that it suddenly no longer worked? Granted this same command works fine for other software I have open - Discord, Calendar, Notes, etc.

I'd love to figure out why this command has stopped working or if something is preventing it from working.

The folders from my TalkTalk account keep disappearing and reappearing. I have tried lots of fixes suggested by a guy who helps with tech issues but nothing has worked yet. Just before it happened, I clicked to 'compact folders' when prompted. I've done this loads of times before with no issues. I have used Thunderbird for a long time and never had this problem before. The folders seem to disappear when I shut down and restart the computer. Yesterday they came back in about 5 minutes. Today they haven't come back and I've had the computer on for about half an hour. Every time the folders come back, they are Threaded (which I never choose) and Ascending (I always choose Descending). I change them back but next time they revert again.

So far, we have: backed up the profiles checked the server settings checked the password checked webmail - working fine refreshed the folders (subscribe) deleted a .msf file

Any other ideas? Much appreciated!

Using TB for many,many years under the POP system, when I trashed an email, it remained until I opened Trash and physically removed it. I had about 5,000 listed and would delete the oldest month on a monthly basis. When I switched to iMap, my trashed messages are automatically being deleted after about a month. I have searched account setting, but can't find any way to reverse this feature. I am running TB in a iMac running 10.14.6. Would appreciate any assistance. Thanks, Gary

On `about:keyboard` I rebound 'Full Screen' from F11 to Ctrl+Shift+F. This works for opening full screen, but it doesn't work for exiting full screen; I have to use F11 to exit.

I can't find any other setting for exiting full screen mode, so I assume this is simply an oversight by the devs, but if not, I'd appreciate help figuring out how to rebind exiting full screen as well.

Forgive me, I'm not very tech savvy, and besides that I'm a Mac user, so basically tech-illiterate, but I'll do my best to describe this.

I'm running Firefox (which I keep updated pretty regularly; currently 159.0.1) on a MacBookPro from 2012, currently operating MacOS 10.15.7 (Catalina). I use a trackpad the majority of the time. One finger to move the mouse, two fingers to scroll the page.

When scrolling up or down on a very long webpage, the first scroll goes at a steady pace, the second scroll (in the same direction) goes at an identical steady pace, and the third scroll (in the same direction) *rockets* me all the way to the bottom. Or top. Whichever way I'm going.

This can be very difficult to work with when trying to reach somewhere in the middle of a long page. Or if I just want to go at a stable, predictable speed. (I don't mind scrolling a few extra times to get through a particularly long page.)

I have tried toggling so many settings in the "about:config", turning off acceleration, setting things to zero, but nothing I have tried has been able to turn off the RocketScroll. Would be very appreciative of any suggestions. Please let me know if there is any more information I can provide to solve this issue.
