To begin with, as there isn't an option in the drop down, I thought settings would be the best place to begin.

Hi,

 I'm curious if there is an avenue to customize FF, first for desktop and maybe the mobile,  and possibly even enterprise if accepted, via source. If it is possible, where exactly can I find the code? This is a preliminary question and I do plan to check git. The reason I'm starting here, one may ask of me. The answer is simple enough, like any other enthusiast dev, time is a resource best spent doing something you enjoy. So, where better to ask than the experts and community who may have a link on speed dial. 

Thank you all for any help!

When I used to click on Minimize, it would minimize to the system area down by the clock. Now it minimizes to the taskbar, something that it's never done before. When I clicked the X, it would close out the program completely. Now it minimizes the program down to the system area. Is this a bug, or is this the way you people do things now?

I have Win11, Thunderbird Windows MSIX packagethunderbird-MSIX - 1.0, and several accounts (The box below won't take anything past "Thunderbird Window.")

I'm looking for some way to make a different ring either for one of the accounts or for certain domains or for a subfolder -- any way that I'll know when something comes in from specific domains. The special ring(s) can be for each of the two domains or both of them. Can that be done?

I've been using Thunderbird version 155.0 with only a few issues (reported in other posts).

To investigate one of the issues I've had to create a new profile for testing. I've managed to set everything up except for my default font for outgoing emails. If I send an email with say, four lines of text, I can format each line to be a different font and the received email reflects the different fonts for each line.

But Thunderbird isn't remembering the last selected font. So if I send a second email (without re-selecting any font) the recipient receives it in some naff mono-spaced font. I guess there's somewhere where I can set up the default font for my outgoing emails but I haven't managed to find it yet. Can anyone help?

For a long tome Chrome use to be my go to browser, but with all the recent changes and google buckling to legislation changes, I returned to Firefox as my primary browser. You see, because proxy settings can be set within the browser instead of system wide as with others, I primarily used Firefox to access private networks I was given access to. I still use Firefox for this, but mow for everything else too.

I see that there can be multiple profiles set up, which I hope would allow me to quickly swap between proxied connections and non-proxied connections. The problem I ave found, is how hard it was to find this setting with the latest iteration of firefox. It used to be a simple matter of scrolling all the way to the bottom of the settings screen, now I've had to hunt high and low just to find it. Whilst I have mentioned multiple profiles already, if this does not allow me to quickly swap then its pointless. So, can we PLEASE have the proxy page put back where it was, nice and easily accessible,

When composing emails in Thunderbird for Android, I can't find any options to format text.

I can't select a typeface (even the most basic html tags for serif/sans-serif/monospace aren't available) or even make text bold, italic or underlined.

This makes it very hard to create emphasis where necessary, and it feels like ancient emails from before HTML formatting.

Is there something I am missing, or does this depend on the phone?

NB: I can do this with my messaging apps and the Gmail app, which I prefer not to use.

Enclosed are jpg copies of the current sets of filters failures in my TB email program.

TB Error0 shows the 6 emails that have arrived and are placed in the INBOX. However, each of these has a corresponding filter set up to move them upon arrival to a separate subject email mailbox.

Note: If I highlight the INBOX and then go to Tools > Run Filters On Folder ... all of these INBOX email messages will be correctly filtered and moved to their respective email mailbox, BUT each of them is shown as having been "read" and unless you pay close attention, you may not know where these INBOX emails were sent.

I am also enclosing TB Error1 & 2 that show the last couple of days message filtering errors.

I can find nothing wrong with how each of these filters are set up, yet they seem to consistently fail to operate when new emails arrive.

Note one of them is for incoming emails from ... schiffsovereign.com. I have edited this filter repeatedly, even deleted it and re-input the information. Yet the filter never takes hold and does what it is designed to do. I am enclosing a jpg of that specific filter as TB Error3

I am looking for suggestions on how to fix this problem.

Thank you and best wishes,

Using the system color theme, where my Windows 10 system is set to the dark color theme, I see Thunderbird 153+ Meadow showing popup menus with weird dark teal background. The standard Window menus (File, Edit, ..., Help) appear to use slightly different background, which still doesn't match my system color. Is there a setting I'm missing to have these menus shown with my system dark color theme (like current Fx, and previous Tb versions)?

I'm using my system color accent setting, but I'm seeing changing this Tb setting doesn't seem to affect the menus background.

I've also noticed I'm not seeing this on Windows 11 – the menus background is fine, although on Windows 11 I'm still noticing this teal "accent" appearing in certain elements of the popup menus, f.e. the color of menu item keyboard shortcuts.

I'm currently on Thunderbird 155 and previously I just had one email account configured and cards view was working fine. However, after adding an additional email account (gmail), which displays fine, my original account is now showing my name in the cards view, instead of the sender. I've tried clearing the cache, repairing the inbox, but that didn't fix it. If I switch to table view its fine, I see the column for "From", although the new account displayed "Correspondents" instead of From, but I switched them to using From to make them consistent. Still not showing correctly for the original account.

I have "Allow remote content in messages" turned off. However I receive many messages for which I wish to allow it for that message. I do so and it works fine.

What I would like to be able to do is to have TB learn the message senders for whom I have allowed remote content so I don't have to click it every time. Is this a feature that is available that I am missing, or is it just not possible?

If not possible, please advise as I will submit for an enhancement.

Notification requests I would like Thunderbird to 1) notify me that I have received new email(s) even before I have opened Thunderbird. Partly by changing the icon on the taskbar and partly by playing a sound. And 2) also retrieve the emails that are there automatically when I open Thunderbird. Is that possible? How do I do that?

Ask Gemini Option Persistent on Firefox for Android

Any text selected in Firefox for Android on a Samsung Tablet has the "Ask Gemini" option with no way to turn it off.

This only appears on Firefox, does not happen on the same tablet in DuckDuckGo, Google Play Store, Fossify Notes App, Wikipeida app. Only in Firefox on Samsung. (Does not appear on Firefox on Sony phone).

Gemini is not installed on the Samsung Tablet, and ALL of the possible AI settings, assistants and apps are disabled, turned off or opted out of in both the Samaung Settings, the Google Account, the Mozzilla Account and the Firefox browser settings. There is no active assistant running on the device and Gemini is not even an installed app.

As this is ONLY ever appearing in Firefox for Android on the tablet and absolutely no other apps without Gemini even being installed and actively being blocked from running makes me think this is a bug specific to Firefox.

Screenshots included as this shows it the different apps listed and that this menu is different per app as some have their own context items, which again supports this being a potential bug specific to Firefox.

How can this be sucessfully reported, removed, turned off or customised to stop the accidental activation of an AI Assistant from Firefox when selecting text? (Either as text already on a page or text that has been typed into a form or doc via the web.)

My folders are in disarray and it is cutting into my productivity to file emails. I have tried but it in settings but it doesn't work. Many are in alpha order but there are 2 different two different sections of the same name, and some odd files end up in an alphabetized section.

For instance there are 2 different ZBV sections with other stray folders in the same area that should be in there own alpha folder area. It's a mess to find the right folder. I have to scroll up and own and look for the folder I need to file in. I would be happy to donate, and i have in the past, but I really need this to get fixed. Please, please, please...
