not a real question and not waiting for answer.

the "Open all in tabs" menu that appears at the bottom waiting for you to click on it by mistake. we need a way to remove that option while also disabling the middle button over the folder to open all bookmarks over the tabs. It also should be a default because been using firefox since version 1 (previously Netscape Navigator back in 1998) and I rarely had the need for something like that.

Firefox under linux x64 v 148.0.2

Linux madcat8.local 6.12.30 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu May 22 18:38:20 CDT 2025 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-14900K GenuineIntel GNU/Linux


asked chatgpt and it suggested some fixes but apparently userChrome.css is actively being ignored. from the look of things, seems like I will have to stick to an specific version like I had to do with Thunderbird after version 102 where ugly UI changes were implemented.

have fun.

Hi,

I am looking for the option to have each email row display ~3-5 lines of preview text directly under the subject line in inbox pane. Without it, it's very difficult to manage the email load.

How do I do that?

There is a folder in my Downloads folder ('~/Downloads') called 'thunderbird.tmp' Whenever I delete it it reappears whenever I open Thunderbird. How do I relocate this because I like to keep my Downloads folder neat? I have not found an option for this anywhere in settings on the app.

This is the only place I thought might match my request.

Well, maybe not so much support, but a request.

Any chance of adding a dedicated notes tab?

There are times I need to jot down ideas on an email, or quickly need to have data available readily.

DON'T want to have to open another application JUST to take down info.

Thank you for a great product.

In Thunderbird, I am trying to create an email filter, however, the screen/window display will not show the "OK" button to allow the filter creation to be saved for usage. After several hours, I have tried all the resolution changes, "resizing" the screen/window, "window" stacking, cascading etc, - nothing works to lengthen the screen to show the "OK button. I have other filters created previously, that work, but editing with changes have the same display issue. (HP Pavilion laptop-Windows10, i7) It appears that the bottom of screen is in a fixed position -see screenshot.

Any suggestions appreciated,

Using Acronis True Image for Western Digital (ver 2025 build 41936) to backup my files on a daily basis. Recently the backup program has been stopping and reporting that it cannot access some Thunderbird files, even when Thunderbird was not running (1st image) I tried 'Compacting all Folders' in Thunderbird but the result was the same (2nd image). Lastly, I tried clearing the cache - the result is the same. In all cases Thunderbird was not running during the backup.

i realize that this is not a Thunderbird issue, but I've been unable to get help elsewhere. I wondered if anyone might have a solution since Acronis apparently sees the file as being accessed - is there a way to remove that?
