This might also belong under accessibility. Or how to organize the screen? At this point I cannot get some messages because there is no space left for it. This has happened gradually but now its impossible. I will attach a screen shot to show the problem. (I would have a tiny bit more room if I could get rid of that line of tags since they come on a dropdown anyway. Thank you so much,

Hi, I just started using Thunderbird for Android and - so far - I am loving it. One thing I cannot seem to figure out is how to change the color scheme of the widget. Is it even possible to change it? I would like to set it to use the same dark theme I have for other widgets, but the Thunderbird widget stubbornly keeps its white background.

Whenever I have a website bookmarked on my home screen from Firefox Mobile, it opens a separate process where I have no access to my tabs, address bar or settings. I'd like to regain the full functionality of Firefox regardless of where I open the website from. I don't know if this is immersive mode or some other mode.

I copy/paste emails a lot for my job, which needs to include from, sent, to, cc, bcc, and subject:

From: Sender <sender@email.com>; Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 2026 at 11:27 AM EST To: John Doe <johndoe@email.com>; Cc: Jane Doe <janedoe@email.com>; Bcc: Subject: Email Subject

Currently, I am using the plugin ReplyWithHeader, which will produce this style of header on reply/forward, but is there a way to display this in the email body on view, without me having to reply/forward to produce the headers in the email body?

How to remove or hide anchors in Thunderbird

Update: Apologies, seems it was my mistake. While setting up the signature in the first place I *did* pick up a named anchor from a template <a name="_MailAutoSig">. It was buried in the generated HTML, and I have now found and removed it. Problem, such as it was, now solved.

Is there any way either to remove the yellow anchor symbol which Thunderbird inserts in front of my signature, or to tell the client not to display the symbol? I didn't put one in the HTML signature that I use. There's no "remove named anchor" command. It isn't related to the double -- marker, which I've already removed using config. I have no use for anchors, which for me are simply a visual distraction.

Thunderbird is so good in many ways (calendar synch is great - one of my major bugbears with Outlook - also recipient privacy when sending out group invitations) and it can be quite frustrating in some others (e.g. unwanted features that I've had to dig around in config in order to turn off)

Thanks everyone :-)

When I open an email that contains a thread, each response (or reply) shows up in its own window. This results in LOTS of email windows on the screen, and I have to fish around to find the one I want to see. Then I have to close all of them one at a time. How can I change this so the email thread is in one continuous window?

Context Menu Assistance - How to add "Open Link in New Tab" to Context Menu when Right Clicking on an Image in the Image Tab in Search Engines

Hello!

I am having an issue where when I right click an image when on the image tab of a search engine, it only has the "Open Image in New Tab" choice in the context menu, with no ability to open the website the image is on in said context menu. ("Open Link in New Tab")

I know this is the opposite of what most folks want, but I see it this way: If you open the image from the context menu right from the search page, it only opens the tiny, fuzzy image that you already could see on the search page. I don't want, nor need, the tiny, pixelated image that I am already looking at.

I want to be able to open it right to the page that the image is on. That way I can see the image in full resolution, or look at the page it is from.

Is there any add-on or code or anything that could help me? I've searched and searched, but nothing I've found has worked.

TL;DR I want to remove "Open Image in New Tab" and replace it with "Open Link in New Tab" from the context menu when clicking on images in the image tab of search engines on Firefox. Is there any add-on or code or anything that could help me?

[DESKTOP VERSION] The font display size in the email composition window is at least 2 'clicks' smaller that what is actually displayed in the received email. When writing an email I need to do a double Ctrl+"+" in order for the text to be easy to ready. When I read the sent email (sometimes I need to send emails between accounts - I have 14 between my business domain and my personal domain), the text that I entered is the proper size. I can easily see this because of the graphic image in my signature, which is the same size in the composition window as it is in the received email. See attached composite graphic.
