In both my desktop older installation (now updated) and my new laptop installation, when I go thru Account Settings and check off what I want, it all changes when I leave the setup. I uncheck the startup page, and when I open both versions of Bird, the startup page is there again. Same with table/card setup, and other options. Isn't there a "save" in Account settings? Thanks, Stacy

I have multiple accounts to keep different tasks separate(ish). Let's say forums, work, school, family, and shops.

When I ask to 'download messages for all accounts' it doesn't even start with the default account, 'work'. There's no rhyme or reason to the order. It'll trundle forever working on 'forums' when what I want is 1) work, and 2)school so I can start dealing with those while it can take as long as it wants on the others.

I have tried and tried and tried to find a way to tell it what I want, but it keeps ignoring me. The closest I've come is entries in user.js, but it's still not working because I'm not at all sure of the syntax.

What should I have for these lines in user.js? (Pretend those account numbers refer to my five categores above.) Or am I on the wrong track?

user_pref("mail.accountmanager.accounts", "account2,account3,account4,account5,account1"); user_pref("mail.accountmanager.defaultaccount", "account2");

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Has any body else found Firefox relay to be mostly useless? I put up with the annoyance for a few days and then had to get rid of it.

I did use it once to get past the id page for a purchase just to look at the freight cost. Too much, so the tab was closed straight away and the masked email did not leave my computer.

The problem is that signing up to new accounts or providing your email online is something that is done only very rarely compared to the number of times your email has to be used to login to an existing account but relay has to be in the way every time.

Just a hint to the developers, those accounts already have my email and they will never lose them. Also if I need to use my email to sign in, giving a mask email is not going to work very well.

Relay is a great idea if only it could determine the right time to get in the way.

I am having my Thunderbird run so very slow. It can take up to 10 mins to load my emails even though if i load my emails though Gmail it comes in immediately’

I contacted my server and they went though all my settings and found that there was no problem from my server. When I opened my email on my Gmail or on my Cell phone using my gmail server it comes in immediately.

Does anyone have some help that could fix my problem. I sure do not want to abandon Thunder bird after so so many years having such good service with Thunderbird.

Thunderbird (140.2.1esr) suddenly stopped downloading emails on 8th Sept 2025, although new emails are still accessible on my email server's webmail, suggesting the problem is with Thunderbird not accessing the server. Sending messages in Thunderbird is unaffected. Have tried every solution I can find online, but problem still persists. When I click 'Get messages' , at the bottom it says 'Host contacted, sending login information', then 'Checking inbox for new messages', then 'No messages to download'.

I am using firefox on ubuntu (firefox 142.0.1 (64-bit)) and using vertical tabs in the side bar. I recently started using the new(ish) feature of tab groups and I absolutely love it. I was using STG (simple tab groups) before and that fine, but this is way nicer. The only small annoyance I have, which could be a mistake on my side. Is that some of my tab groups are shortend seemingly randomly? If I for example make a group named "phone" it is visible like that, but after a couple of hours it goes to "ph...". I thought it may be sidebar width not being wide enough, but you can see in my screenshot that is not the case. Strangely if I make a new group it is always complete.

So I was wondering if I am missing a setting or config entry.

Thank you for reading and hope you have a great day!

My Thunderbird updated on Thursday (9-11) I believe. Since then my autoback comes up when I close the program but it no longer backs up to OneDrive. Typically it engaged promptly and was done within 30 seconds or so. Now it just sits on this screen and doesn't backup.

Hoping whatever is stopping this can be fixed. I am a user of the program and not a programmer so if there are steps involved please know you need to provide the A,B,Cs if you will!

When I close the browser, recently it is leaving a lot of background processes running. As a foreground application, when I close the browser, I want it ***closed***. That is, no remaining processes/services. File|Exit should mean exactly that.

@Mozilla, please fix this, or add a very clear/obvious setting in Tools|Settings for "Close all browser processes/threads" on exit. I shouldn't need to get into about:config to start finding things to disable.

This has been interfering with backups because of files remaining open/locked even after the browser is closed.

Not sure if "performance and connectivity" is the correct category. I recently bought a Mac-mini and set it up via iCloud. All seems to be working as before, except that website check boxes don't work properly. In some cases, check boxes are not visible; and when they are visible, there is no visual indication upon selecting the check box. The attached image shows two check box. Upon clicking on a circle, it does not turn black. And sometimes, the circle doesn't even display. Any help appreciated.

Ha, the checkbox below on this form "Email me when someone answers the thread" does not work show "checked" when I click on it.
