I am using Windows 11 with the latest Thunderbird 151.0.1. I have been trying to add color to the column title background in the message list using the userChrome.css with the following:

  1. sizeCol {background-color: #dcfffc !important;}
  2. recipientCol {background-color: #dcfffc !important;}
  3. subjectCol {background-color: #dcfffc !important;}
  4. dateCol {background-color: #dcfffc !important;}
  1. spamCol {background-color: #dcfffc !important;}
  2. fromCol { background-color: #dcfffc  !important;}
  3. attachmentsCol { background-color: #dcfffc  !important;}

They work except the 'from', 'attachments' and 'spam' columns title backgrounds. Can anyone see what I am doing wrong? Or is there a way to color all column title backgrounds in one line? Thanks

Previous to version 151.0.1, when I pressed ctrl-L, Firefox focused the URL bar and I was able to edit the URL. Now, on 151.0.1, pressing ctrl-L clears the URL and a dropdown for the search engine appears in the left of the URL bar (see attached screenshot). I have verified this on a new, blank profile. Is there a way to restore the old behavior?

I am trying to disable the text segmentation behavior in latest Firefox(v151), but I have encountered an issue where changing the preference in [about:config] does not seem to have any effect.

Details:

   Target Preference:  intl.icu4x.segmenter.enabled
   Current Setting:       false
   Problem: 
   Even after setting this to false (and restarting the browser), the text segmentation behavior (such as word selection logic) remains unchanged and appears to still be using the ICU4X engine.
   Reference:
   https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1440483#answer-1638092


I would like to know:

  1.  Has this preference been deprecated or hardcoded to true in recent versions of Firefox?
   2. Is there any other way to disable the ICU4X-based segmenter or revert to the previous segmentation logic?
   3. If this is a known change, is there an alternative preference to adjust how word selection handles specific languages (e.g., Japanese)?

I am using the latest version of Firefox. Any insights or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help!

Thunderbird version 140.11.0esr (64-bit): I can't make new message filters

The oversized menu box cuts off the the "Save" key and I can't re-size the Message Filter/New Filter box nor can I slide it up for access to the button on the very bottom. Windows 10 Home, Version 22H2, Installed on 9/14/2021, OS Build 19045.6466.


I've tried a dozen fixes suggested by Duck AI and none had any effect on the Filter box. Here’s a concise list from Duck AI of every fix I tried:

   Hold Shift while opening the Filter menu (compact popup).
   Shorten long filter names (Tools > Message Filters).
   Change system UI scale (Windows Display scaling).
   Toggle toolbars / layout to reclaim space (View > Toolbars / Layout).
   Use Tools > Message Filters dialog (resizable) instead of the menu.
   Add userChrome.css rules (multiple variants) in profile/chrome/userChrome.css to force max-height, scrollbars, reduced font/padding:
       Generic menupopup rule (max-height: 420px, font-size: 11px).
       Targeted rule including .filter-menu-popup and #createFilterFromPopup (max-height: 300–520px, font-size: 10–11px).
       Final variant replacing values with 360px (no effect).
   Attempted diagnostics via screenshots and Developer Toolbox (Ctrl+Shift+I) — determined screenshots showed Filters dialog, not popup.
   Determined the "Create Filter From" list is likely a native Windows popup (userChrome.css cannot style).
   Workarounds proposed:
       Use the resizable Message Filters dialog to create filters manually.
       AutoHotkey script (Ctrl+Alt+F) to open New Filter and pre-fill From/To/Subject from the selected message (provided full script).

I had received several emails from an individual over the past few weeks. All emails displayed in the inbox (on my desktop computer) as they should. This afternoon suddenly all of these emails disappeared from the desktop inbox. The emails are still on the server and are and can be viewed in the inbox on my laptop but not on my desktop. If I use the quick filter function in the desktop the emails are there but not in the inbox. I assume some sort of filter accidentally was activated (I did not attempt any filter changes) but I can't find how to remove this filter function so the emails again appear in the inbox as they should. Please provide detailed instructions how to get these emails to reappear in the desktop inbox.

change the font weight of unread messages

Hello,

I am on Thunderbird 150.0.2 for Windows.

I am really suffering here. I need to change the font weight of unread messages. In a non-threaded list.

The default weight I get with my preferred font (Trebuchet MS) is not bold. It is BLACK. When I say BLACK, I mean ultra bold, display font, heading weight. Heavier than the boldest font that even exists in the font family. Thunderbird is creating this ultra mega black font by taking the bold font variant and applying a faux bold effect to it. The result is that the text is so heavy that it takes up twice as much horizontal space as the ordinary bold font variant. This becomes a usability issue because it's not possible to see the date, sender, and subject at the same time.

I have struggled and strived with userchrome.css. Spent hours combing through forums here and elsewhere. I've already enabled the mystery setting in the config editor. I put userchrome.css where it is supposed to be.

I saw a blog post from Mozilla that says "userchrome.css is not supported". What is the actual meaning of this? That it has been actively blocked from working anymore, ever, for anyone? Or that users are taking risks if they create userchrome.css? Why can't developers speak plain language? "Not supported" could mean many things.

When I go to the Style Editor, userchrome.css does not exist there. Which leads me to believe that user customizations are absolutely deprecated and we are not permitted to use userchrome.css.

I tried editing some of the rules in the Style Editor, but could not determine any way of actually storing the changes. When I click Save, I get a dialog where I can **EXPORT** the file. But I can't seem to actually save the changes, because CSS files do not appear to exist in the installation directory. It must be compiled into some library.

This is extremely unsatisfying and super frustrating. Just getting straight answers to things is super difficult, nothing stays the same for more than a couple months, and up to date information either does not exist or is not found by any search engine.

So, please help. I just need to change one setting, the font weight of unread messages. Since Thunderbird is allegedly open source, I thought I would have some ability to make such changes. But the Style Editor doesn't seem to actually be an editor, but merely a read-only interface to precompiled rules? If I wanted to change the font weight of unread messages, would I be forced to compile my own version of Thunderbird? I'm not competent to do that, and it would probably either prevent updates, or the updates would break my changes.

Please help, I am super desperate. I need to see the date, sender, and subject all at the same time. That doesn't seem like an unreasonable ask.

I would gladly pay for an email client that gives me control over my data *and* allows me to control the UI, but apparently that doesn't exist.

Hello (this might fit better in "performance & connectivity?): Tbird 140.10.1 & .2 esr. W11p laptop v23. As of tonite (15may26), after update from 140.10.1 to .2, in a message, the "buttons" for a web link no longer appear, in the msg body. Instead the link is shown in full. How can I fix that?

Here's an example (others are longer) from our local rag "Press Democrat."

I also closed & re-opened tbird, did NOT reboot laptop. Problem remains.

Thank you.

Earlier in the year I installed Thunderbird onto a new PC having previously used an older version on an older PC. When visiting a web site (and clicking on an email hyperlink there) my previous version used to automatically launch Thunderbird but the new version doesn't do that any more (i.e. clicking email hyperlinks doesn't do anything at all)

I'm running on Windows 10 and using Thunderbird version 150.0.2. I this likely to be due to some setting in Thunderbird? Or is it maybe something I need to configure in Windows?

TB crashed so I uninstalled/reinstalled it. As part of the reinstallation, I selected the "load more" value as 1000 more. This was done rather casually and without any consideration. Afterwards, I thought perhaps this might slow Thunderbird down. Is that true? And how do I change "1000 more" to some other value? I've searched extensively but can't find a solution anywhere. Thanks, Ian
