1) I selected all text and cleared formating. After doing that, the cursor completely disappeared?????? 2) I should even have to do #1, but editor is crap when coming to formatting. Not ability to display formatting/paragraph marks is absurd. Copy/paste text from anywhere and you almost always get a mixture of formats. For example, I had most text and big font and one paragraph and a level smaller. So you think you can just select all text and make them the same. 3) Can't save drafts anymore because my e-mail address is setup at recent:username@gmail.com. If you save the draft and come back you get an error message. If u then try to send it, it does not work.

The people who answer questions here, are other Thunderbird users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or Thunderbird developers.

In a forum where those answering you are volunteers, it is always a good idea to moderate your language. So I will moderate your posting for you. This is a public forum, not the local pub

That is a bug in Mozilla's core. It was reported some 15 years ago. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=226301

Agreed, but it is what we have.

You can expose the HTML that makes up the message using a couple of different add-ons. But not many people are fluent in manual composition of HTML. But are you sure you want to see /BR on the end of lines when you press enter?

Copy/paste text from anywhere and you almost always get a mixture of formats. For example, I had most text and big font and one paragraph and a level smaller.

I find paste as plain text (ctrl+Shift+V) is the best way to past into Thunderbird. Especially from Microsoft programs that include MSO Binary data in the stuff they paste.

So you think you can just select all text and make them the same.

I select Cut and paste as plain text when I mess up and paste stuff from the web. But Thunderbird has no "format painter". A number of Microsoft Office programs, including Excel, PowerPoint, Publisher and Word offer the pre-defined Format Painter tool.

3) Can't save drafts anymore because my e-mail address is setup at recent:username@gmail.com. If you save the draft and come back you get an error message. If u then try to send it, it does not work.

What are the error messages. Verbatim please.
