I'm up to date on Windows 10 with version 151.0.1 of Thunderbird. My preference is to discontinue using Windows and move to Linux Mint. The Software Manager in Mint installs and manages Thunderbird updates. I like the idea of Mint managing my software. However, the latest version is 140.11.1esr. Consequently, moving my data from Windows to Mint is not possible. A profile problem is flagged.

I've switched off automatic updates. I'm wondering how long it will take Linux Mint to catch up to v150. One solution is to install v150 independent of the Mint software manager, but I'd rather not do that. I'm wondering if there are any workarounds.

Thunderbird 140.7.1 i have a subfolder called "purchases" which I add to on a regular basis. Suddenly no messages appear after May 2014 I have logged in directly to the mail server, and all the missing messages are definitely on the server. I have checked the local filters, none are set. I have tried properties/repair. I have tried removing ~/.thunderbird/xxx/ImapMail/mail.myserver.com.au/INBOX.sbd/purchases.msf

Could it be a problem with dovecot indexing on the server? all the other subfolders seem to work fine. It's just this one.

Why Does Thunderbird Hang When Saving Draft? Right after creating a new email, and I "Save to Draft", Tbird says "Copying messages to Drafts" at bottom left of GUI.

The only way I could see to clear the "Copying..." message was to have Tbird check for mail in a different account. When I check for the draft in Drafts, it's not there - it's no where I checked except the original still in it's own opened GUI that opens when using "New Message"

Bottom line - can't save drafts.

I asked about troubles with passkeys in Microsoft password manager, not Windows Hello. The question was denied. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1585824

I am only a home PC customer and have Windows OEM vendor's support only. It supports operation mises about Windows OS and preinstalled applications, but doesn't support Windows's bug trouble shootings. I was denied supporting from FUJITSU CLIENT COMPUTING LIMITED (known as a Japanese company, but a subsidiary of Lenovo now). I copied the raw Japanese text to avoid my failure of translating.

By the answer, I lost any support about trouble shooting.

I ask questions. Have Firefox development team previously confirmed that it works? Does you have Bugzilla ID about functionality check with passkeys in Microsoft password manager or something like it?

My email provider provides "Disposable Email Addresses" - aliases which still direct mail to my inbox but don't expose my primary email to any web sites etc. I provide them to. It's very handy for registering for mailing lists, product vendors etc. since if one gets leaked, it's no big deal. I can drop the email again, but at least I know who was responsible for leaking it (I still get spam to my old Myspace account). My problem is that I'll occasionally have a need to reply such an email, and by default my From: address is my primary email address, not the one in the To: header. This is confusing to the recipient (since it's from some unknown email) and also exposes my email unintentionally. Is there any way to configure Thunderbird to always reply using the To: address? If there are multiple To: or CC: addresses, it could perhaps be specified with a wildcard matching any of my aliases. I can do it with Identities, I know, but I have to set that up before replying and I frequently forget.

It’s not every link… sometimes it feels like it just turns on suddenly which will get me by surprise because it’ll open past the tab i have open so you cant see it. Until i go up to my tabs and scroll over. The number of tabs i have open just says infinity. I am using iOS ipad version. i just looked in setting and couldn’t find anything that was open a new tab every link. I know this must be some setting somewhere but when you have over 600 tabs open and I attempt to close some of them its driving me insane…

1. Have read some recent questions which are similar. 2. My current Firefox is 151.04 (64 bit) I use Windows 11 Home 3. My problem relates to payroll in QuickBooks and has only occurred for payroll run after 20th May 2026. PDF's for payrun dated 20th May 2026 open with no problem. Any payroll reports after that date fail.

     I download payrun report and the page in firefox browser tab shows a 0 of 0 display (not the normal report)

      The file is sitting in browser download, as well as my C drive file explorer under 'downloads'

      When I double click, or highlight and select open, or highlight and select open with - my SodaPDF app displays a message indicating it failed to open a file.

4. Queried QuickBooks who believe it is a compatibility error.

5. Queried app provider (Soda PDF) and have been doing checks with them, but not able to resolve at this time.

6. Last resort went into QuickBooks using Microsoft Edge - file opened in SodaPDF with no problem.

As my preference is Mozilla browser, would like to have resolved ASAP, otherwise I need to use another browser. Await your advice - Kind regards

This is a Thunderbird question so be patient :). All of a sudden I was locked of MyMail and Mail on iPad and iPhone so I updated my comcast password but I can't update it in Thunderbird because it isn't accepting my old password. When I try to send a message there's a window that pops up that says why it wasn't sent and it says enter new password but when I click on that it goes away and doesn't let me enter one. When trying to figure this out I googled and it suggested removing all providers if I wanted to use all new credentials. So I have to add Comcast back in but I don't know how. So now it doesn't give me the option to show passwords. So i screwed up. How do I straighten this out? Plus it is now almost midnight and I have not received any new emails since this morning. I think part of this is the business about having to change to a new Comcast email system. But I still need help with the password issue. I have an appointment with Comcast tomorrow afternoon so hopefully I can start to get emails in MyMail. TIA.

There are audio and video files for which I receive in the console that they can't be decoded. Media resource could not be decoded, error: Error Code: NS_ERROR_DOM_MEDIA_RANGE_ERR (0x806e0069)

I want to collapse all folders in my email account.

I have a lot of them, and I don't want to close/expand them all individually. I want to quickly close all or expand all

Is there a button to do that ?

it can be useful if u create a system of syncing which actually works, why my passwords dont sync when i log in and also i had to put my exact same passwords 6 times before the stupid system recognized it was correct, the fuck is happening i had changed devices before and this never happened i dont know why now but im very upset

Example: Clicked on a link in a emai from THIS GROUP trying to answer this problem. The responses did not fit so I hit the back button and again got the Fastmail.has stopped working screen.

Has also happened when accessing a site directly through Firefox and the backing up
