Zenos, thank you for your message! It is helpful.
In fact, I was trying to find where in Thunderbird the default button is hiding. I want to default to another established ema…
Thank you Bruce for your speedy response! I backed up the profile and did the uninstall/reboot/reinstall . Sadly, the problem hasn't been cured. At least the new installation foun…
Wish I had known of the culprit lying in hiding inside CCleaner's setup before uninstalling it. If you know where to look, it's an easy fix.
Now I hope someday someone will ad…
Since my remarks are continuing to be misread, I will thank the two contributors Matt and Zenos who assisted me in finding a solution and suggesting the possibility of an unrelate…
We are mired in terminology misunderstandings. I am not an IT person. I try to use terms I hope adequately illustrate the concepts I'm trying to communicate. Despite the fact I ha…
Just right click on the toolbar containing the '''Quick Filter''', then drag and drop the '''QF''' button in the Customize box. It's gone.

The Unread IS a useful filter. Sometimes senders of spam purposely antedate an email to force you to look for it hidden among older emails. thinking you'll be less likely to bulk …
Matt,
It seems a button labeled "'''Unread'''" would display unread emails. In fact it once did. With all due respect, I would not agree that a button functioning as it is label…
I'm sorry but I don't understand your reply. I am saying there ARE unread mails in my INBOX. I know because the Inbox is '''bolded''' and the number of unreads is tallied, as is "…
Ok, I posted a screen cap. Do you see? The Unread button is one of the buttons you can install in the Thunderbird toolbar directly above the email list. Some of the other buttons …
Oddly, today this anomaly is not happening. Last night I did some cache cleaning, updated T'bird to the current version, and restarted. So I don't know if any of these steps are r…
I am using AVG (which I keep updated regularly). I temporarily disabled it, closed and re-opened Thunderbird and tried to send an email. Same problem appeared.
After opening Windows Firewall in the Start box, I discovered Firefox was not even showing in the list of allowed programs. I have added it and am optimistic this was the problem.
