Title. Thunderbird is a really cool client but it's pretty slow. I blame that on the thousands upon thousands of emails that my hotmail and gmail each hold. I don't necessarily want to delete these emails, but I have seldom a reason to have any email older than 2 months in my thunderbird client slowing and crashing the program whenever I want to combine inboxes.

To this end I went to "Synchronization & Storage" and told it to "Synchronize the most recent 2 months" but it didn't delete the huge cluster of older emails. The next option is to tell TB to delete these emails in the same menu but as I understand it that would also delete them in the server, which I don't want to do for posteriority.

What do I do?

Thunderbird 15.4.2 was made available today. Since 15.4.1 reintroduced bugs from 15.0 (Hot Mess Edition first push) that had been fixed by 15.3, and I had bugzillad one, I wondered if 15.4.2 had fixed the bug they introduced in 15.4.1. I installed it and clicked on the usual place for release notes, and got an error message -- that page doesn't exist! They always put out release notes when a new version comes out. This time they didn't. Things really seem to be falling apart at MZLA.

And no, they haven't fixed the bug. Mailnews_scroll... in advanced settings still works backwards (set it to false if you want it to work).

Since the big update I cannot read my messages in the message window without scrolling as I read each line. The message window is so small that I can only see about four lines of text at a time. I can't get the messages to open in a new window unless I click on them and choose "open in new window" even after setting them to open in a new window on their own.

The last update fixed the font on everything from being too big in spite of settings so now I can read a little more at a time. It's still very frustrating having to scroll constantly.

I installed the beta version of Thunderbird without realizing it's incredibly difficult to switch back to stable, so I'm stuck with beta. In beta, can someone explain the reasoning to me behind why calendar shows a view-only window when double clicking an event title instead of going directly to the editing window? It was so much easier to edit events before:

double click the title > start editing

Now, in beta, both ways to edit an event require extra steps:

right click title > click edit > scale the window larger > start editing or

double click title > scale the window larger > click edit > scale the window larger again > start editing.

It doesn't make any sense. I can't think of any reason for having two separate window states for an event - you don't need a display view and an edit view, because they both display the same information. Just have it open directly into the edit view like it used to.

I made a video to attach but it doesn't allow videos. Let me know if I can provide something else instead.

I already downloaded my thunderbird to a new desktop and my profile and all my mails are visible. But, ehen Im only trying to export my addressbook/contacts which are missing still from new computer pressing the address book under tool and export lets me only download a complete zip file. And the desktop when i want to import the addressbook coz it wants it as a first choice as csv and then some similar choices. Where has gone the possibility to download only addressbook to usb stick and then import only the addresses as csv to the new one. This seems to be very complicated. Or are there any specific files in the system which contain the addresses and I could just copy them from my laptop and replace them to the same place where contacts are ususally stored to make the new computer understand and get use of them. I see many people have hard time with this issue and now it seems itsbeen made very difficult. So better to move to another email svc or do you have an easy solution for this?

I was about to donate to Mozilla as I am a long time user of Thunderbird. Do to my computer being hacked and entire password file stolen I've decided when placing any charges to my credit card I use a generated virtual card number. The app that generates the number is an extension in my Chrome browser. I've used this app before when making purchases; The app auto generates a virtual number and can send the required information to the vendors credit card purchasing page. However, I tried this when donating to Mozilla and the popup locks me out of the virtual number app so that I can't "send" the information over to the Donation popup. I don't use G-PAY, PayPal or any other third party processor. Maybe Mozilla doesn't allow the use of virtual credit card numbers. Anyway, my intention was to donate. Any suggestions that will allow me to use my preferred payment method?
