I have Thunderbird 153.2.0esr which runs 2 Email filter (on Inbox and on Outbox)

These filters worked for years.

Suddenly, about at the end of July 2026, the stopped working.

I suspect that one of the latest release of Thunderbird make them stop working.

Is it possible? Any suggest?

Also the filter log registry is empty.

Years ago when I was using Thunderbird there was "fix" for the Advance to next message pop-up, which appears when you press N or P to move to the next/previous message, and that message is on another account. If I remember correctly I think the fix was going into the "debug list" where you could change individual settings if you knew the name of the setting, and set it to off.

Anyway I couldn't find that list at all in the current version (probably a good thing). Is there a setting somewhere or fix where I can turn off this popup?

After update, Thunderbird can't find Trash or Sent folders

On September 5, Thunderbird updated to 155.0 (20260828141248) (on Windows 11 10.0.26200). I use IMAP. Since then, when I try to delete a message, I get an error: The cur… (மேலும் படிக்க)

On September 5, Thunderbird updated to 155.0 (20260828141248) (on Windows 11 10.0.26200). I use IMAP.

Since then, when I try to delete a message, I get an error: The current operation on ‘Inbox’ did not succeed. The mail server for account <email address> responded [TRYCREATE] Mailbox doesn’t exist: INBOX/Trash (0.001 + 0.000 secs)

But in Settings, "When I delete a message: Move it to this folder: Trash" is set. Not Inbox/Trash or INBOX.Trash, which also exist, but Trash at the same level as Inbox. I logged into webmail for this account, and there's definitely a folder for Trash. All deleted messages prior to the update are still there. If I delete a message in web mail, it is moved to the Trash folder.

The same is true of the Sent folder. In Settings, "When sending messages, automatically: Place a copy in: "Sent" Folder on: <account name>."

It looks to me like Thunderbird is doing something different from what the Settings say, and definitely something different than what it did before the update.

Suggestions?

Keep window/tab open on move or delete, but only sometimes...

I'm aware (e.g. https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1277401) of how to toggle whether the message window stays open (opening the next message) when an email is moved or deleted. But I would dearly love for it to happen only sometimes.

Specifically, when a new message comes in, I want to read it, usually move or delete it, then read the next new message, if there is one. But if the next message is an old one, I don't want to keep having it shown to me. I keep my inbox fairly tidy, but I'm getting sick of seeing that message from a year ago that doesn't have a better place to be.

So, after moving or deleting a message, if there is an adjacent unread message, keep the window open. Otherwise, close it.

If there's an unread message somewhere else in the folder, don't jump to that one. Trust that I've left it unread for a good reason, and don't want to now constantly get shown it, and also have to remember to mark is as unread again.

If it's easier to look for other unread emails based on dates, a few days (enough to span a long weekend, for example) would probably be enough, a week at the most. Or make that number user-configurable.

"Play Sound" in message filters no longer working

I used to be able to set message filters to play a sound of my choosing after a message was filtered into a folder (a chime so i know when mail from a client arrives). For a while it was not an option, so I used various extensions that eventually were no longer supported (ToneQuilla, Mailbox Alert, FiltaQuilla, Soundmail). I suspect that the last one may have corrupted my Thunderbird and caused my recent issues, so I removed it (and now I have no extensions installed). Sound Mail is the only extension I can find that plays a sound for filtered mail only.

Meanwhile, the "Play Sound" option has appeared again in v155.0.1, but with no choice of sound file, and nothing plays. It's not a sound issue; other sounds play in other programs, and the normal new mail sound plays when I enable it (but I don't want sound notifications for all mail, just client mail).

Any solutions?

This just started today. I am seeing question marks between the sentences in my messages. I had this issue a number of years ago and do not remember the fix. I am running the latest version on my Windows 7 desktop. It is just the new messages not the older ones in file.

Anyone remember the fix?

Thanks

Al
