Hi,

I'm trying to add another account to my Thunderbird client (already have 2, a IMAP account, and a Hotmail/Live/Outlook), but i keep getting the error "Exchange auth error" and no possible way to manually configure the server or anything, despite the mail server not being an exchange server. Following this, it just freezes the view, although i can close the popup by pressing escape.

is this a bug in the most current version of Thunderbird, or am i doing something wrong?

There are certain emails that I get that in the email list display that show escaping HTML instead of data that would be human readable.

Its not all emails but it seems to be emails that maybe also have an image in the body of the email right away that is perhaps in a specific format that it happens.

I will attach screenshots. Target will be my example.

When I open a private window, my bookmarks sidebar is showing. I can easily remove it but it shouldn't be there. Until very recently, private windows didn't have the bookmarks sidebar. I don't know why this started but I would like to find some way to have the bookmarks sidebar NOT automatically appear when I open a private window (but of course I want to continue to have bookmarks automatically appear in regular Firefox windows). I've looked online and tried various methods that were supposed to work, but they don't. Can you tell me how I can fix this (minor) problem? Thanks.

Using Windows 10, an Nvidia GTX 1080, and a Panasonic VSX-40 receiver, connected by HDMI.

I recently got a new stereo receiver and have been seeing problems with the HDMI connection. The the image becomes discolored and green at times and stays that way until the receiver is restarted or the input is switched off HDMI and back.

After extensive troubleshooting (replacing cables, updating drivers, testing to reproduce the problem) I have determined that Firefox is the issue.

Playing a youtube video or a twitch stream has a small chance of causing the error. Mousing over a tab with a video in it causes the error almost 100% of the time. The same videos and streams do not cause these problems in Google Chrome.

I have disabled hardware acceleration in Firefox settings and that has solved the issue, but now I have the problem that Firefox is not using hardware acceleration. It scrolls poorly and generally sucks to use this way.

Is there a way to change the way Firefox displays these videos without disabling hardware acceleration completely? Chrome renders them without causing issues, and I've been unable to trigger this error in any way outside of Firefox.

I can login to research.gov on Chrome using biometrics, but Firefox is locked into demanding a passkey I don't have. How can I reset it so it offers the biometrics option?

I tried typing about:config in my Firefox address, searching for security.webauthn.enable_macos_passkeys, then setting the value to false, but that didn't work.

So then I searched for security.webauth.webauthn and set it to false but that didn't work.

I'm having an e-mail emergency, and will be very grateful for any assistance. Running TB 128.12.0esr (32-bit) on a 64-bit Win10 PC.

Earlier today, Thunderbird stopped sending or receiving via my main account, on an Earthlink-hosted domain that I own. Turned out that I can still send from accounts on two other domains, one a shared-hosting domain that I own; the other is Verizon/AOL. But I cannot seem to download from any of the three domains.

I checked all the SMTP and POP settings, which worked a few hours ago and have not changed. Restarted Thunderbird several times, inlcusing in safe mode, and rebooted the PC twice. Clicking "Get Messages" - globally or by account - does nothing. The thin blue "working" bar at lower right keeps scrolling, even if I press the Stop button.

I would prefer not to mess around with setting up new profiles and all. Can anyone here please suggest anything less complicated and risky that might get mail working again?

THANKS in advance!

How do I delete/remove/disable/kill the search engine icon on the left side of the address bar in Firefox Nightly on Android? The about:config toggle browser.urlbar.scotchBonnet.enableOverride in the desktop version doesn't exist as an option in the Android version.

Nobody asked for a search engine icon in the address bar and nobody wants it. It's already irritating enough that searching from the address bar instead of loading a search engine URL like an adult is a ~~feature~~ that can't be turned off, and I don't need a crapulous little icon reminding me of that on a mobile device.

We have Thunderbird set up to auto-connect to Plusnet's "Force9" emails, using a saved password, on a desktop machine running on Mint. It's always worked fine until today, when it gets to "Host contacted, sending log-in information"

then after a long pause a box pops up with,
"sending of password for user [ xxxx] did not succeed. "

It offers me the option of entering our password manually, which gets the same result.

If we log in on Firefox via their webmail portal, using the same password, it opens well enough, it's just much more clunky and slow to use than Thunderbird normally is.

Any advice will be welcome, please. Thanks.
