I have several errors associated with the unified folders display. I have 6 email addresses coming in to Thunderbird. 3 are IMAP and 3 are POP. I have the POP addresses consolidated into the "Local" Folders Inbox, Sent, Trash etc. In the "All Folder" account views, the Local folder correctly displays one Inbox, one Sent, one Trash etc. The 3 POP emails accounts are being consolidated appropriately. However,in Unified folders, the Local folder as well as all of the individual POP addresses are now listed for the Inbox, Trash and Junk folders. There is now no consolidation.

Also, the Unified folders themselves are extremely slow in working. Accessing the properties for the Unified Inbox, Trash or Junk folders results in a long wait with Thunderbird entering a not responding state. Right click operations on the unified folders do not work at all. I cannot select properties, I cannot mark as read, empty or otherwise manipulate the folder. I must go to the individual accounts to manage any folder content. Which I would think makes the whole concept of Unified folders moot.

I am not at all certain what may be the root cause of this rather longstanding problem. I have deleted the smartfolders directory, have deleted the virtualfolders.dat and foldercache.json and foldertree.json files. Nothing seems to work.

Any suggestions?

I would like to be able to click the little fire icon on an email in my "list of emails" window to Mark as Spam, then have Thunderbird automatically move it to my Bulk folder after that.

I looked to see if I could set up a filter to do that, but don't see "Marked as Spam" as one of the selection criteria.

Is there a setting to accomplish what I'm looking for?

Yesterday when I tried to open my gmail in Firefox I got this page coming up Clear cache & cookies

When you use a browser, like Chrome, it saves some information from websites in its cache and cookies. Clearing them fixes certain problems, like loading or formatting issues on sites. Computer AndroidiPhone & iPad In Chrome

   On your computer, open Chrome.
   At the top right, click More More and then Delete browsing data.
   Choose a time range, like Last hour or All time.
   Select the types of information you want to remove.
   Click Delete data.
       If you delete cookies while signed in to Chrome, you won't be signed out of your Google Account.

I'm concerned about deleting data, it's always worked until yesterday.

Should I follow these instructions?

I have tried reinstalling Ffox ad nauseum but the zoom settings will not 'stick' and don't survive a quit and restart. In an effort to sort this I have installed Firefox 128.5.2esr but now the zoom setting does not work at all.

Tried everyting, including deleting all ref to Ffox and reinstalling but nothing works.

Note that I install in the admin account and run as user. This worked fine with MacOS Ventrura but fails with Sequoia. If I install from the user account with admin privileges zoom does work but fails on a machine restart.

Safari, Vivaldi etc all work as expected. It's only Ffox that has the problem. Shame as I've used it for years. If I can't solve this I shall have to go over to Vivaldi and give Chromium another shot in the arm.

Any help appreciated.

Hello everybody, I'm facing an issue with an icon appearing on some sites and propagating down to the print out of the pages. Let me give an example: I'm interested in an article published on: https://www.electronicdesign.com/technologies/analog/article/55246421/modeling-on-mondays-nonlinear-spice-models-of-vacuum-tube-triodes-part-3?o_eid=9960G5790701E5D&oly_enc_id=9960G5790701E5D&rdx.ident[pull]=omeda|9960G5790701E5D&utm_campaign=CPS241216087&utm_medium=email&utm_source=ED+Power+%26+Analog When I open this page, an icon appears in the low left corner. And when I try to print the page, the icon appears on each page. If I use the simplified print mode, a kind of background of the icon (white box) is still visible on each page and can hide the text behind. On top of that the images no longer appear in the print out...

Any help to sanitize that is welcome.

I am using Thunderbird 128.5.2esr, Win 11. My screen resolution is 1600 x 900, when using for example Message filters I cannot see all all of the image to allow me to accept what I have done. The buttons are off screen and cannot be accessed. If I change to 1920 x 1080 everything is accessible.

Any suggestions other than change my screen resolution.

Hello all,

Ever since an update to Firefox from a few weeks ago, I have been having issues with white backgrounds displaying incorrectly in Firefox. I have attached two identical images from the NYT homepage: the first is a screenshot from Chrome and the second is the same exact image but taken from Firefox.

I have also attached another screenshot taken in Firefox from REI.com. You'll see that it's not necessarily just a white background that is causing the weird blue color. It also happens in products images being displayed incorrectly.

I figured this might be a Firefox website appearance setting, but I have played around with it and selected many different permutations and I haven't been able to solve this issue. I have also tried refreshing Firefox, using Firefox in Safemode, disabling all of my plugins/themes, etc. and nothing was fixed.

I am pretty sure this isn't a system wide issue or a monitor issue because these websites are being displayed 100% correct in Chrome and Edge. This is only an issue in Firefox.

Can someone advise?


Thanks,

DC

I need to enable popups for a site that I use frequently for work. I keep getting an error message saying to enable them, but I don't see a way to do it. The dialog box asks if I want to allow the page to open, but it just goes to a blank page. It works fine on my laptop. I run strict ETP, but have turned it off for this site.
