I used the import and export to get my Mozilla Thunderbird info to my new computer but it did not move my considerable number of saved emails in folders in my Inbox. Everything else went I think. Did I miss something? Are they stored in the profile too? They didn't go.

Thanks in advance. Roger Garman [edited from public] @glastel.net

Hello!

In Firefox android, sometimes when I press the address bar, instead of coloring and deleting the whole address, so I can type new address, it goes into some editing mode, where when I start typing, it starts continuing the address already there. What is this extremely annoying feature? I share a screenshot where an address is colored. The grey "normal" part, and the purple part where the cursor is when I start typing.

I have a lot of mailing lists, newsletters, and a few notification emails I want to use message filters on. Is there a way to force the message filters to search for more than one email address per line, especially for those that I want to also keep the last 2 weeks or the last 30 days? I am hoping for something as simple as a comma separator, but I have not yet found the solution.

FTR, I do know I can add additional emails with the + button, but then I need a separate filter just so I can also filter older than 30 days or any other additional condition.

I want to increase the drop down list to show more frequent URLs. Is there a setting that allows me to do it? I have looked and haven't found it. Also, Can I reduce the number of recent searches displayed on this panel. The recent change of adding them detracts from my usage of the drop down list.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions

Sometime in the past year or two, ONE of my four accounts started starring (putting the yellow star) on ALL emails I sent from that account.

This is not happening in the other accounts, including an account from the same university email system. If I send an email from the affected account (cischair) it is starred when viewed in cischair but not in the other account I sent it to (suthers). If I send an email from the other account, suthers, to cischair, it is not started in either account but my reply from cischair to suthers will be starred, again only when viewed in cischair, not in suthers.

It's very annoying to have to uncheck the stars on everything I send, and makes them useless.

Of course, I have looked in Account Settings for something that turns this on and off, and have not found anything.

Could you tell me where this might be set, or perhaps inadvertently by some keystroke combination (the bane of usability)?

Thanks - Dan

Hi,

I'm experiencing issues with threaded view in Thunderbird (version 139.0.2 on Windows). Some threads do not display all messages -only a few emails are shown (e.g. 2 out of 8), and others are missing from the thread view even though they are present on the server. Rightclicking a message and selecting "Open message in new tab" sometimes works (but still doesn't show all messages), and sometimes it doesn't open a new tab at all. the missing messages do exist on the server, and I can find them using Ctrl + Shift + F , but they do not show up in the thread, nor do they appear via Global Search, even though the global index has finished building.

I have tried the following: -Right-click folder > Properties > Repair folder -Deleted and rebuilt global-messages-db.sqlite (global search database) -Reduced IMAP mailbox size from 140GB to 110GB -Waited for reindexing to complete

But the problem persists. It seems that Thunderbird either doesn’t associate all related messages with the same thread, or skips them entirely in display and search.

What can i do to fix it? Thanks in advance

I would like to move the coloured tag to the left on the delivered email so that It is in my eyeline area. It resides on the right, I would like it on the left. Is this possible?

Thanks,

In the latest update, the search engine toggle needs me to use the mouse. First, I just had to press ↓ and then toggle between the search engines. Now, I have to do an Shift + Tab to scroll through the list, which is tedious!

Can the old functionality be brought back or maybe a shortcut added for the toggle?

After manually deleting a link from my bookmarks, that unneeded link is still suggested in the address bar after the fact.

This is while using the Windows version of Firefox 140. In the Search > Address Bar — Firefox Suggest section of settings, I only have the Bookmarks option enabled. I've tried disabling History > Remember search and form history and enabling History > Clear history when Firefox closes options as well but still have the problem.

I'd really appreciate any advice.

I asked a question yesterday afternoon and left the tab open. This morning there was a response to my question. In attempting to implement the instructions, I inadvertently deleted the tab with the instructions. Now I cannot find it again. I have been through the list of questions both open and answered and cannot find my original post. I would assume that there is a way to search by my user name to find all my posts but I cannot find one.

Often when I am searching for luxury items, I keep getting Amazon and Temu and Target and Walmart. These are not luxury retailers. Why does Manilla insist on sending me to these retailers all the time?!? I am looking for classic quality, clothing, shoes, housewares, etc. I am not looking for cheap plastic from China. How can I permanently delete retailers? I do not want to see in the search engine?

Since transferring to a new mac a few weeks ago and using the latest version of Thunderbird, I've noticed that the search function is not finding all emails even when entering specific names or subjects that I know to be correct. It is showing a mixture of old and new results but certainly not showing all of them. I'm not aware of having changed any settings but this feature was pretty reliable before the change over.

Hello, I have a large database of emails. When i conduct a search from the search bar then it gives me a wide list of search results with multiple emails and different filter options on the left side. However, when i select the option "show result as list" from the top right, then on another window with list view it only shows very few mails and not all.

For example, on initial search it shows 109 emails for that particular keyword search. But on choosing show as list - it shows only 30 emails (instead of 109) !!. Screen shots attached for above example.

Kindly advise how to resolve.
