I have inadvertently cc'd a person to a confidential email and not there is no recall option with Thunderbird. This is an option available on all other email providers. How do I recall a message sent in error?

115 continues to try my patience, but inflicting threading upon me goes beyond annoyance and into the reign of seriously disrupting my ability to use Thunderbird.

I've read some stuff here that I don't really understand. Is there any way to TOTALLY turn off threading for any and all incoming or stored emails? I found View ==> Sort By ==> Threads seems to have an option for "All" but that can't be unchecked.

If anyone can provide any help, I'll be quite grateful!

I added another e-mail account to "Thunderbird 115.6.1" but its not being displayed in the column on the left, how can I get both accounts to show up? It does show up in the account settings. Thank You for your help! I LOVE THUNDERBIRD, been using it for years, EXCELLENT Program keep up the goo work! :-) Call Keith aka NiceSeeingYou

My Thunderbird updated and how it displays the Email accounts, Emails, and Content of the emails presented to the user as vertical columns as opposed to the previous versions is making it virtually unusable. If I had 3 monitors to spread the application across it might be usable to read the emails but as it sits right now, the email preview pane is like a reading a cash register receipt.

How can I change the "theme" back to the horizontal display of messages and emails with accounts on the left as it was before this update?

on a personal note, I never understood why software companies feel the desire to force interface changes on their userbase. Why mess with perfection?

Hello, I have been using Thunderbird with the Manually Sort Folders app for years. The ability to place folders and subfolders where I need them is essential for what I do. With the latest Thunderbird "upgrade", it was downgraded as the Manually Sort Folders app is no longer useable. Until Mozilla fixes it to where either the app can be used or Thunderbird is improved so that it will let me sort folders itself, I cannot upgrade. Please either render the Manually Sort Folders app useable again or make Thunderbird so that folder can be sorted. Thank you.

After updating TB from 112 to 115 the display window is after starting mostly blank. The email folder tree is hidden left. When I pull it to standard location, when I click to the message folder to see the emails, they do not appear on the right. I need then to reset the screen setting to get to the standard classic theme. This holds only short time and again I have a blank screen as attached. When I click to File and then on Exit, it takes very long to close the TB. Closing the TB wit the right cross top works immediatelly. In my case I have a big folders (few GB each) and multiple emal accounts. I really have to say, that in speed and friendly usage is the 115 step backwards from 112.

I get 100-150 e-mails a day, wade through them, respond to few, eliminate some, but still in a month there's a pile-up of hundreds. How can I set Thunderbird to delete all more than two weeks old? And not to put some at the top of the string and some at the bottom of the string? A method of harvesting and burning off.

Can you please let me know why the coloring of my text which was so simple in the earlier versions is no longer possible.

In such situations can you allow me to use an older version till you fix these bugs?

This is very frustrating and will be grateful if you can help.

I have been a donor and really want to see Thunderbird succeed.

About 2 days ago, all the message header buttons (Reply, Forward, Delete, etc) disappeared on just one of my Thunderbird accounts' Inbox. That account connects to a Microsoft Exchange Server email system via Exquilla. All of my other email accounts are "standard" (not using Exquilla add-on) and all of my other account Inboxes show the message header buttons when I click on a message header to see the full message in the lower message pane. Until about 2 days ago, all message header buttons appeared previously in all of my accounts (Exquilla-related or not). Since Exquilla was last updated more than 2 months ago, I tend to think that use of the Exquilla add-on is not the cause of this problem, but I include this info here to be as completely descriptive as possible. I am running Thunderbird 115.5.2 (64-bit), which Thunderbird "Help" informs me is "up to date".

Since version 115.3.1 (64-bit) to present version 115.5.0 for Linux Mint (using Vertical View and Favorite Folders' 'only), the Compact Folder View is no longer compact at all. Each folder also includes my email address on each line making it take up 3x the space now. I can turn off the Compact View to actually get a more compact view, but this standard view shows a box with my email address above the folders, plus the folder tree. It was so clean looking before.

Is there no way to put the Menu Bar up top anymore? The very top bar is the customizable bar instead. It should be the other way around.

Most annoying is with the calendar when I put in an appointment or reservation for a future date, if I move timezones (I travel a lot), it changes the time with each timezone I pass through. For instance, if I make an appt for 11 am, it should be local time regardless of location. When I change timezones as I get closer to my appt location, it changes my appt to 12 noon, etc., potentially causing me to be late.

Hi Not sure if this is the right place to ask. I am using Thunderbird for my email program I have it pinned to the taskbar at the bottom of my computer screen. I was wondering if there is a way that when I have the mail screen open and I open another screen like Settings, or Account Settings, if they can be shown separately on the task bar, and not combing so only the tab I have open is showing. That way I can flip between each one a lot easier than clicking on the one showing and then having to select the next tab in the actual program itself. Thanks Marc

I am using the current Thunderbird and when I have the email clients collapsed the page is a general one that lets me create new mail or calendar accounts. I would like to not see that and perhaps just see a clean, tidy, blank page. How can I do it?

See attachment. The message box is too narrow. I can barely read emails. When I tried to extend the horizontal bar up the screen, which would reduce the number of inbox emails, it stops at the location I show in the attachment. What's going on here? How do I fix this?

For a long time, I've used the inbox to also receive the outgoing messages, in order to assist with threading of messages that end up creating a thread with multiple messages, but I am finding an issue going forward with the newer version, which is that a stand alone sent message shows my sending mail address, and the subject, which makes it hard to identify who the message was sent to in the list of messages, particularly if the same message is sent to several recipients, but not using the facility to have multiple addresses in the send header, which usually is because there are different attachments sent to different recipients.

I do this by using BCC to my own address, and this does two things, it gives me a confirmation that the ISP mail server was able to process the message, and it helps with managing threads that can become lengthy

I have been looking for a way to edit the order of the fields in the header pane, but can't find a way to do it, so that I could put the recipient mail above the sender mail, but even if I could do that, I can't be sure if the display of the data would then give me the recipient in a visble format.

Is there a way round this, or will it require changes to the package to make it possible?

Thanks

How do I change the folders and toolbars to black text on white. I have change the mozzilla toolbars to black text on white ,and the messages in thunderbird to black text on white, but the folder windows and toolbars are still white text on black. Why is this so hard to find and fix?

Hello,

Within the past week or so, whenever I download my email, I then get a little dialog box telling me that "Could not connect to server news; the connection was refused", and then asking me to enter my username and password. This is something new.

Once upon a time I did subscribe to some newsgroups; I haven't looked at them in years.

I can download email, but have no need to access the news server. I deleted the sub-folders nested within the news server, but I still get that dialog box.

I looked at my settings, but am unable to determine how to stop tbird from polling the news-server.

Hi!

I'm trying to help my elderly father with Thunderbird, but I just can't get it the way he used to have it.

The problem is that he wants to have a reading pane below the list of emails, and he no longer can make the list of emails show less, like only three emails or so. Because he has poor eye sight, he needs to have Windows on low resolution, and because of this, only half of his screen is used for actual showing the content of the email.

I have attached a screenshot of his screen, and as you can see, the reading pane at the bottom shows very little of the email. He can of course double click on it to get a full screen view, but he would prefere not to. So what he is asking for is how to make the box with the list of emails smaller, the box that is right above the reading box.

Thank you very much in advance for any help.

Regards, Ulf
