First off, mucho thanks to Wayne Mery for kindly guiding me back where I should again ask this question. Here's a copy of the message I posted that Wayne responded to --

> Hi Kelly, et al, > > If this isn't an appropriate place for my question / comment / suggestion -- please advise how to do it properly. > > Several months ago, I had a brief exchange with Wayne Merry(?) in which I communicated that I was "certain" that TB was not showing me ALL (99.99%) of the emails I receive for my several hosted domains. I mentioned that I used to receive 20-30-40 spam messages everyday -- mostly in "junk" (not all). Then suddenly that stopped -- perhaps after upgrading to a new version. Wayne seemed little interested in my problem, but suggested I upgrade to a newer version -- which I resisted (just want a "stable" version that works) -- but I did -- to 140.17 esr. > > That upgrade made little difference (maybe one or two more). That is very problematic for my "business-like" use of TB. I live by email. My business card minimizes my phone # (landline) and mainly shows two big, prominent e-addresses -- my old original e-address from an evil ISP in ATL (druw@oneimage.com)-- AND above that -- my main e-address which is identical to the ISP, but with DRU added to the domain (druw@OneImageDru.com). > > I verified this week that a banker business contact -- sent to both e-addresses -- and I only received the one sent to the ISP e-address. Never received the one sent to druw@OneImageDru.com -- at all. This is similar to dozens of similar situations -- in which I never received any (expected) email -- and had to assume that -- just maybe that party never sent an email (not a lot of email lovers left). > > How can I SEE ALL (99.99%) email sent to my TB -- including seeing ALL spam sent to my TB -- just verify that there aren't any unintended NON-spam messages that are being mischaracterized as spam -- but are not? Is there a particular TB version that has potentially solved this problem? > > Any suggestions for running an other particular IMAP client (not deleting) -- to compare with what I get with TB? > > Merci, > > Dru

Hello Dru. You were close with the name :)

Through https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/user/druw/ I see you previous posting No longer see ALL messages, including spam after upgrade to TB 128.14 Oesr (64, Win 10) from 6 months ago and your older posting More "granularity needed" to "How to turn off Junk filtering / TB 115.10 from a year ago.

The description of planning at https://thunderbird.topicbox.com/groups/planning/settings indicates this group is not for bug reporting and support. The place for support is https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new/thunderbird. You will want to state that the problem is seen with version 153 or newer, and in Troubleshoot Mode https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-mode-thunderbird Thanks

How to stop Thunderbird from constantly trying to check email

I'm using Thunderbird 153.5.Oesr (64-bit) on a Linux machine (Zorin OS).

Most of my email addresses use POP, but with a new email address, I decided to use IMAP. When I'm disconnected from the internet, that particular email address keeps checking for new emails and saying it can't connect. I don't WANT it to connect. A message pops up every few seconds or so and is very annoying. I need to unplug my ethernet cable/adaptor periodically, since it seems to overheat, so keeping it connected to the internet continually won't work.

I have un-selected the boxes in Server Settings to check for messages. See the images below.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Current Thunderbird setup: Computer: Pop3 Phone IMAP

Until last week, I could leave the emails on my phone all day until I accessed them on the POP3 setup on my computer. That would remove the emails on the server and when I went back to my phone, it would show an empty inbox. Now, the emails do not clear out of my inbox on the phone, and I have to delete them manually. This happens on both the production version and the Beta version. Also, accessing via webmail, the inbox will be empty after accessing email on my computer.

I updated today because of the CA issue but this version of Firefox seems not to be able to save PDF files. This might be a bug.

What I did to try to resolve:

1. Tested saving PDFs from different websites: no PDFs were saved. All failed silently (Save as PDF dialog closes as normal after I select the destination for the file. No file is produced, no error message is shown.)

2. Checked to see if a different application could save PDFs today on my computer. No problem. It's just Firefox.

3. Restarted Firefox: same problem

4. Restarted my Mac (mini m4, Sequoia 15.8.1): same problem

Note: Printing on paper from Firefox still works.

Any ideas have to fix that issue ? Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Apparently, there must be a flaw with Mozilla Account where it relates to being logged in and the browser crashing within 2 minutes of use. WHENCi'm logged into my Mozilla Account to sync bookmarks, etc., the browser crashes within about 2 minutes of browsing after the fact. I know about there being some issue with Java causing the issue, (see prior questions posed in this forum), but it's getting pretty dawned annoying. Ai have to LOG OUT of the Mozilla Account to be able to use the browser.

This mainly occurs on a Samsung Galaxy Tab running the latest version of Android and Samsung's One UI. this is still occurring despite updating to the current Android version of the browser. I'm attaching a screenshot of the most recent crashes that Haven't experienced for review.

Can someone please look into this issue? If a solution can be found, can it be pushed out automatically?

THANKS!

How can I customize url and search fields to remove the search engine dropdown, and ideally make the URL fields ONLY work with URLs and the search field only work with my default search engine?

A recent update has completely broken my muscle memory: I'm used to typing Cmd-L to move to the URL field, then a single tab to move to the search field, where I immediately start typing.

Now, that single tab moves me to the search engine dropdown, which I don't even want to use, so every time I try to search I have to stop and back up and it's badly affecting my workflow.

How can I either change the tab order or just get rid of the dropdown completely? If I want to use a different search engine, I can always just go to their page instead of using the search bar.

Also, is the URL field now exactly the same as the search field? I really want them to behave differently - I don't want to touch search if all I'm doing is re-visiting a URL in my history. Is there a way to have a URL field that ONLY works with URLs and avoids search, and a separate search field that works with my default search engine?

Thanks for your help.
