I now have 2 accounts in Thunderbird: Local (which has years of folders, but stopped receiving email from my Web mail provider) and my webmail Provider that does not download it from the provider. He claimed it is more modern and safer to synchronize across all devices and keep stuff on the web Mail application. I prefer to keep all my folders and emails on my local computer. Should I use POP? iMAP? to do that? Thanks for your assistance?'

I just had a firefox tab with a pop up asking me to try ai features... my options were "yes" or "maybe later". How do I stop the slop sales? I want ZERO pop ups... from Mozilla or anyone else! I didnt see settings that would disable mozilla sales pop ups - is there some way to turn these off permanently? I have already turned off the ai features. Really appreciate any suggestions!

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, seit vielen Jahren benutze ich Thunderbird für meinen Mailverkehr – zur Zeit mit der Version 147.1. Beim Posteingang habe ich den Ordner <TU> mit vielen Unterordnern zum Abspeichern wichtiger Informationen eingerichtet. Seit einigen Tagen ist dieser Ordner „verschwunden“ - lässt sich nicht mehr abrufen. Bei der Benutzung von <OutlookWeb> mittels msx@tu-dresden.de ist dieser Ordner wie gewohnt vorhanden. Nach geöffnetem Profilordner habe ich die Datei <global-messages-db.sqlite> gefunden, Thunderbird geschlossen und diese Datei gelöscht. Nach wie vor fehlt jedoch bei Neuöffnung von Thunderbird beim Posteingang der Ordner <TU> mit den vielen Unterordnern. Es wäre durchaus möglich, dass dieser Ordner <TU> eine Größe von mehr als 2 GB mit seinen vielen Unterordnern besitzt ? Inzwischen habe ich beim Posteingang eigentlich parallel zu <TU> einen neuen Ordner <XXX> angelegt, der auch angezeigt bleibt. Bestimmt lässt sich dies bei Thunderbird mit einigen Klicks wieder aktivieren. Für Ihre Hilfe möchte ich Ihnen im Voraus danken. Mit freundlichen Grüßen H. Köcher

Hi I see that Firefox has the option to ask an AI chatbot, with your options for AI being Claude, GPT, Gemini, and Le Chat Mistral. What I'm not seeing is an option for Lumo, Protons new chatbot. My question is is there any future support coming for Lumo, or better yet, an option to let FF users choose ANY chatbot, not just these 4?

UNABLE TO SEND EMAILS FROM FREE-ONLINE (PLUSNET SERVER)

1. Was able to receive emails sent to my address xxxxxx@xxxxxxx.free-online.co.uk, but unable to SEND my replies. Was getting this notification: 'Send message error. Sending of message failed. An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Unknown sender. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again, OK' (see attached). 2. Checked all settings, all correct as used to be before the problem started. 3. At some stage, I tried changing the password in Settings > Privacy & Security > Passwords > Saved passwords > Saved logins to see if that helped. It didn't. 4. I removed the free-online Server from the Saved logins (Provider: smtp://relay.free-online.net, User: xxxxxxx) with the intention of restoring it with a new password - but found I couldn't restore the free-online server. So I decided the best thing to do was to restore the password as it was before and to ask for help here. >>> That line has now been restored.

NB1. Free-online is a sub section of Plusnet. NB2. Last year I received an email from Greenby saying something about maybe taking over from Plusnet and that I would be notified if and when I had to do anything. I have not received any such instructions so left things as they were. Many thanks for your help from a not-very-techy so stressed old lady.

I just got a new Windows 11 computer. After installing Thunderbird 147.0.2 I noticed there were no columns at the top of the message pane as there had been in the past. I read articles about how to add the columns but could not find the column icon or anything in the header area that allowed me to do what the articles recommended.

I want to add the columns for sorting purposes from time to time but I can't find a way to do it. HELP!!! Please?

Thanks, Clyde
