I have lots of filters to organize my copious incoming mail. Messages get moved into topical boxes. Recently I've noticed that a mailbox has unread messages in it and when I open it, I see the new messages for an instant and then they disappear. And another mailbox now has unread messages. So it seems that the filters run on the inbox when the mail is received and then they are run again (but a different set are applied) when I open the mailbox they got moved to by the first run. I see no settings in the Filters dialog that has anything to do with this behaviour. Why is this happening and how can I stop it?

BTW, most of my filters have Stop Execution as the last step. (Most only have a single Move to... action followed by Stop. And for performance reasons, all newly created filters should have Stop as an automatic 2nd step since most users wouldn't think to do this. )

Hello! I have used Thunderbird for many years. Lately, it waits much too long to prompt compacting all accounts. When "Compact all folders when it will save over ..." is set down to 1MB total, it still does not prompt until it has to clear 30 or 40 MB.

It didn't do this in the past, prompting me every 2 or 3 days at higher settings. So, I'm curious if this is "normal" now and I need to manually compact, or if there is a problem with 'Account Settings > Disk Space > Compact all folders' ... ?

Good morning- This is the fourth time in 5 days that my Thunderbird email server has crashed. Manu Andino most recently helped. Can Manu or any support personnel get my email account back online? Thank you- [edited] @mailfence.com

I am running Mozilla Firefox on Windows 11. I am using Rogers Yahoo Mail. Unfortunately the mail program has "Spell Check". It can best be described as intrusive. Every letter I type in my mail the spell check keeps popping up and bothering/interfering me to the point where it is very annoying and frustrating. I need to get rid of it permanently. I saw some suggestions where I could go to 'settings' and uncheck the box that says 'check your spelling as you type', it was unchecked and the spell check keeps popping up non stop! PLEASE show me how I can stop this aggravating feature. Thanks, Larry

Dear Sir,

Username: [email]@malcolmgmiller.biz

I am unable to sign into my email account.

A fault notification comes up advising incorrect username or password.

I have checked and all is in order.

Perhaps I have put in the incorrect information earlier when setting up.

Please reply to

[email]@aol.co.uk

until issue rectified.

Yours faithfully,

Hello

On some website (example : https://tasmota.github.io/docs/Commands/ ) the "find in page" search field will just vanish in the middle of typing or while pressing the up/down arrow to go through findings.

Firefox version : 131.0.3

I don't what or how it happened.

But one night all I can remember was I updated my Firefox in Windows and my account was synced. I use to have all my browser history on my Macbook air. But suddenly the next day I discover that all of my history is gone. I have no idea what caused or how I can recover it again. I tried the internet and nothing helped me with my problem. So now I'm resorting to this and hopefully someone can tell me what to do.

Hello! Yesterday (03/16/2025) I received a message that the ChatZilla add-on to Firefox will be disabled on the next restart of FireFox. The message indicates that the extension could not be "verified".

I am using a VERY old computer for ChatZilla only: Windows XP Firefox 48.0.2 ChatZilla 0.9.92

I don't care about the age and inability to update any of the software, but I need to continue to use ChatZilla on this platform.

I have used ChatZilla on this machine for a very long time and do need to continue. Is there any way that I can make this work without having ChatZilla automatically disabled at the next restart of Firefox?

What a dirty trick! I updated Firefox to version 136.0.1 to stop all the nagging, and my tabs disappeared! Nothing I could do brought them back. I asked the internet and finally learned about the sidebar, where tiny icons are shown (which I hadn't noticed). Nothing I could do with the sidebar brought the tabs back. Asked the internet again, and finally I found that buried in the Preferences is Browser Layout. When I deselected "Show sidebar," the tabs came back. What a dirty trick to make that the default, with no clue how to undo it! Nothing in the menus or the Help was any help. P.S., I am not a computer novice; I was a systems programmer in my professional life and have been using Firefox for many years.

Due to the current transition from Skype to Teams Free, I was wondering about what reported here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/teams-client-system-requirements In the "New Teams for web" section I can read that the latest three versions of Firefox will be supported for Windows, macOS and Linux. In the "New Teams on Linux" section I can read that "Linux users have access to New Teams for Web and new Teams as a progressive web app (PWA)"

So my question: Will I be able to use the new Microsoft Teams for Web Free from the latest Firefox on Linux Mint 21.1?

Thank you

Best Regards

Videos on Bluesky have never appeared for me, instead they all say "Your browser does not support the video format. Please try a different browser." This seems to happen regardless of the video source.

Firefox says versions earlier than 115.13 will be impacted by the certificate expiration. I've updated to 115.21 My add-ons are still disabled. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/root-certificate-expiration

It seems many don't know or haven't noticed but merely running an esr branch (rather than a developer edition) will also give you the option to enable add-ons with expired certifications via about:config.

Anyway, the "legit" way isn't working.
