Hello, I have migrated my thunderbird onto a new windows system but I now get not automatic download of messages, the only messages I might get is if I close down Thunderbird and reopen. Get messages does not do anything - not even sure its attempting to communicate with server .

Is there anything I can do or change ? I have literally spent almost trying various things and I am the point of giving up and trying a completely different email client. There should be a seamless migration method but it appears there is not.

So the problem is most prevalent on YouTube but other sites as well. I'll click full screen on a video and it'll look like it's going to maximize the video but then it boots me back to the home screen. I have to click on Firefox again and get the page pulled up again and then click full screen and it usually works. Sometimes I have to cycle through this once or twice

It gives me the options of Yes, Skip or Cancel. What do I do?

Hi all

I have an IMAP account which has altnamespace enabled (i.e. my folders are on the same hierarchy level as my inbox, not subfolders of it), and a server-side filter that sorts incoming mail into either one of the folders or the inbox.

When I enable message filters in TB, they seem to run only on the inbox itself, not the other folders. I can select a filter and then click "Run now" with the appropriate folder selected, and the filter works. But that of course beats the purpose of the filter (which is to delete messages based on sender address).

Is there a way to have message filters automatically run on the other folders?

Thx!

1. Often TB won't show new message, it'll list a number of new message, maybe I can actually scroll down & view a few of them, but quite often, I'll try to scroll down and can't see that new message that TB indicates exists. Or I have to click on an old message, then try again, click on another message I've already viewed then scroll down to where the new message is. This morning, tried both several times, still couldn't see the new message that TB insists is there. 2. At one time, when you opened TB, you were automatically taken to the end of all the messages in your inbox or if you fllter emails to folders, to the end of messages in that particular folder. No more, you have to scroll down to the end. Why? It's a waste of time for me to do that and as far as I know, TB places no limit on the number of emails in an inbox so . . . why was that changed? Because it was user friendly? In my search I noticed that there was one TB user who was so upset he/she/they wanted to return to v. 102. I wonder how many people, seeing the response, also have returned to a previous version. I know I'm really tired of getting additional bells & whistles i don't use, changes to what you see that don't help me at all, plus making using TB more of a hassle--see above. Please fix the above problems. If it's not fixed in the next upgrade--which I'm hesitant to install given the result of the last few upgrades that introduced the above hassles--then I'll probably go back to an older version too.

This happens on both iOS and iPadOS. It is inefficient, obtrusive, and (to be civil) annoying. To see an example, go to https://www.techmeme.com which is an aggregator for tech journalism. For each headline you’ll note after it a series of links to various stories on the same topic. For example, say Bloomberg publishes an article on Apple and Google getting together on AI. After the link to that headline, Techmeme carries a series of links to similar stories elsewhere, like Verge, PCMag, ABCnews, New York Times, and on, and on…

Now, here’s the rub. View Techmeme in Safari. Touch one of the links after the headline. The browser pops right into that source. Now try in Firefox. I get a popup citing the other source’s article title and maybe author. I haven’t a hint as to what to do to get to the selected source. I may touch the link again and get the source’s home page/table of contents; I may touch the writer’s name and get a bio; or other things: hard to get to the target. When I get back to the Firefox display of the Techmeme site, it takes a time-consuming amount of tapping to get the little popup for *this* article to vanish. Tedious!

I know Firefox wants to protect me from wicked creatures great and small. But this is too much. Efficiency is king in my aggregator browsing: Techmeme, Memeorandum, Mediagazer, wesmirch are four examples.

How can I control the bubbles?
