The Delete button (I've just begun using Thunderbird for Android) sends email to Delete-land: gone for good. There is no way to reprogram it to send to Trash. One can, alternatively, hide it on the main screen by setting swipes left and right to None. But it is still there in the Read screen....and potentially dangerous. If you try to set a swipe to Trash rather than Delete, there is no Trash option. So you have to set it to Move and choose Trash each time. This reduces the utility of Tbird Android and means you have to be extra-careful when reading emails.

Also, no way to reduce image sizes (by percentage) when attaching large picture files...unless you reduce them in advance in an image processing program.

Instructing Thunderbird to arrange Sub-Folders in Inbox back into alphabetical order

Have been using Thunderbird and Firefox for decades, naturally, and have several email accounts. Within each account, I'm a prolific user of folders within the respective Inboxes. For years, these folders have remained in Alphabetical Order, as when they were set up. Recently, however, for no reason that I can suss, the sub-folders in the Inbox of one of my accounts have been gone "all agley", ie. they're listed all higgledy-piggledy in random order. This isn't a problem for my message filter - but it's a real problem for me, having to scan down a very long, disorganised list to find any particular folder I want to open. I've searched for an instruction to instruct Thunderbird to arrange the Folders in my Inbox in Alphabetical Order and can't find anything. Can anyone help me, please. Many thanks in anticipation to all you helpful Thunderbird Users and Contributors. Cathleen (London, UK)

Strange Response To Strange Email Link

Hello,

Thunderbird is my default email program and if I receive an email containing an email link of the form Fred.Bloggs@example.com I can click the link and Thunderbird opens a new message to Fred Bloggs. Today I received an email with the following link: email:customerservices@zen.co.uk. When I clicked it a little dialogue popped up asking me which program I wanted to use to open the link. I browsed to Thunderbird and selected it, but when I clicked OK nothing happened. Why isn't Thunderbird automatically handling all email traffic? What settings do I have to make sure that links of this form will be handled properly in future? Why wouldn't the system be told to use Thunderbird?

Alan.

I don't know if feature requests should be made here or elsewhere, but both chrome & edge have policies to force safe search in google (and bing in edge) in addition to a policy to force restricted mode in youtube, so I wish these get added to firefox.

Also, there is no policy to block firefox task manager (about:processes). I don't know if it's a security vulnerability to add it or not.

I use Thunderbird 140.11.1esr with Ubuntu 24.04. I also use LibreOffice 26.2.

When using LibreOffice, if I want to delete a number of contiguous characters, I put the cursor at the start of the characters I want to delete, press the delete key and hold it. Holding down the delete key means that delete works its way through all the characters I want to delete.

When using Thunderbird, if I want to delete a number of emails, pressing down and holding the delete key doesn't result in the deletion of a number of emails. Instead, I have to keep pressing delete again and again.

Is there some setting in Thunderbird that I can change that will result in delete automatically working its way through all the emails I want to delete?

Thanks,

Leslie

Hi. Now that the 'Open Link in Split View' has annoyingly replaced the spot previously held by 'Open Link in New Window' i keep clicking on it accidentally (muscle memory).

I don't want to have to retrain my muscle memory, but despite creating css file generated by Claude that should in theory remove the option, and putting it the Profile Folder, it will not go away.

How do i remove it?

Due to muscle menu or not needing to think about it. Split should either be near the bottom of the context menu or you should be able to toggle it in settings. The amount of times I have gone to click a link to open in a new window only to split the view is driving me crazy.

Hallo, ich habe vorgestern ein neues Win11 aufgesetzt und dann die neueste Version von Thunderbird installiert. Mir ist jetzt aufgefallen das sich die E-Mails nur mit einem Doppelklick öffnen lassen und das dafür ein neues Fenster aufgeht. Früher waren die Mails mit einem Klick zu öffnen und der Inhalt wurde auch direkt unter der Mail angezeigt . In den Einstellung steht der Doppelklick nicht in der Auswahl sondern als einzige Möglichkeit. Gibt es da irgendeine Möglichkeit um das anders einzustellen, einfacher Klick und direktes anzeigen ohne extra Fenster? MfG

Hello, the day before yesterday I set up a new Win11 and then installed the latest version of Thunderbird. I have now noticed that emails can only be opened with a double click and that this opens a new window. Previously, emails could be opened with a single click and the content was also displayed directly below the email. In the settings, double click is not in the selection but is the only option. Is there any way to set it differently, single click and direct display without an extra window? Best regards

Feedback on Firefox Widgets – Missing Indian Standard Time (IST)

I noticed that the World Clock widget includes Pakistan Standard Time (PKT) but does not provide an option for Indian Standard Time (IST). This is surprising given that India has one of the world's largest internet user bases and a significantly larger population than many countries currently represented.

India operates on a unique UTC+5:30 time zone used by over 1.4 billion people, making it one of the most widely used time zones globally. The absence of IST while neighboring time zones are available feels like a major oversight and reduces the usefulness of the widget for Indian users and anyone who regularly works with Indian colleagues, clients, friends, or family.

Please consider adding Indian Standard Time (IST) to the World Clock widget as a standard option. Its inclusion would greatly improve the widget's global coverage and usability.

Hello,

I have this problem. On only 1 PC from 5, with same mailboxes installed and same configurations, on one of the mailboxes, Thunderbird does not accept setting to "not read" the letter. I tried making time to read the letter and it worked for 10 min, and then again stopped. At final, no matter how it is set, when I push to read the message it always read it.

Tried repairing the folder, but doesn't work.


Any Ideas will be great.

Thank you

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
