How do I configure the new "Local Folders" archive set just created - so they'll be displayed and searchable in the Email folder view?

Thunderbird v128.9.0esr (64-bit) on Linux Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS

I have archived emails on my IMAP server for some time.

Now to avoid a full quota on the server I have reconfigured the Archive to "Local Folders" and changed the configuration to yyyy/yyyy-mm.

After archiving "fresh" emails and re-archiving from the IMAP server archive folder

I can see the respective sequences of folders under the menu

• Account Settings
• email@account.com
• Copies & Folders
• Archives on Local Folder

and within the file selector menu

• Archives on Local Folders
• Local Folders
• Archives
• 2023
• 2023-01
• 2023-02
• etc

The result in the email account folder shows the old "Archive" folder - but now emptied - alongside new (unarchived) emails.

On interrogating the Archive folder properties the location reported is the (previous) IMAP address.

So how do I:

1. identify the location of the newly created "Local Folders" archive set, and
2. make the Archive folder set display and be searchable in the Email folder view?

I open the calendar "Algemeen" on my Windows 11 installation and see this message:

All calendars are currently disable. Enable an existing calendar or add a new one to create and edit events.

How do I enable a calendar? If I click the three dots next to the calendar "Algemeen" or right click "Algemeen" I and select properties I see it is enabled:

Before the last Firefox update, I was able to view jpeg attachments in emails (before and after sending) in Windows phot viewer - now I can't!!?? The options it offers to view are weird - adobe, media viewer etc - rather than before where it was Paint, Picture viewer etc? - and in settings, the ascribing options are the same, and I can't find any other on offer? How can I ascribe something like Windows picture viewer to attachments? (I have managed to get t to accept Photoshop - but that is a slow-opener) Mike

I successfully subscribed to an online .ics file but I found the resulting calendar entries inadequate and I want to unsubscribe but I can't figure out how to do that. I've tried searching for instructions but haven't found any.

With the new version of TB the address book has become unusable. It is not White Text on white background. I can't find any settings to reset or apply a theme or fix the colors of the text within the address book. There are many settings and themes that one could apply to the mailbox but if one can't see the address book that pretty much it useless to try to use the email.

How does one just set up the ENTIRE program to apply a theme? Or can we get a working White and Dark themes that address all Text and All backgrounds to make them legible so there are at least useful. TB has become very frustrating. Sorry to rant but before the big changes to use native Darkmode it was really good email client but like so many that try to embrace the darkmode trend (which isn't a bad idea) they are falling short of addressing the entire product.

Any help to address the color issues in the address book would be greatly appreciated.

Had to reinstall, so starting over. When I look at the Junk log, there are tons of messages listed that are not junk. How do I rescue them? and how do I make sure they are not treated as junk in the future?

Hello, I have three free.fr email addresses in Thunderbird under Windows 10. Several of my folders and subfolders, along with the corresponding messages, have disappeared. I can find their traces in my profile in the Mail folders. How can I restore them? Thank you.

I'm getting junk mail that uses my wife name as the sender. My wife died a year ago and I do not like seeing her name being used this way. Basically, the email (fake billing) has: her name as the sender my email address real sender address (junk/spam name from gmail).

I need to have any email as she being the sender to automatically go to junk and trash.

Please, tell me how I can do this. I'm getting up there in years, so any help and a "how-to do it", I would really appreciate it very much.

I was not able to "see" any way within Thunderbird on how I can do it. BTW- the version of Thunderbird is: 128.9.1esr (64-bit) and my OS is Ubuntu 24.10

Thank you for your time.

I have been using Thunderbird since its inception. I am currently on 137.0.1 using W10 Pro with all updates as well as another DELL machine running W11 Pro with latest updates. Suddenly, on BOTH machines, the calendar popup notifications have ceased to appear. I am able to perform all other calendar functions ie: new events, edit, etc. Weird to say the least. No changes have been made to the event notifications settings. Wassup?
