I'm running Thunderbird at the desktop on various Linux and Windows boxes. These instances, along with other interfaces like RoundCube and the like can use my IMAP server to access all the folders in any given email account, move mails between them, add/remove/edit folders etc.

Thunderbird for Android can't even see them, not even the standard sent/trash/etc. options - only .INBOX. I have all the folders in my subscriptions file but nothing shows when I query the folder list from the client ("Manage Folders") and in any case I have unchecked "only list subscribed folders" in the settings for my account.

Any idea what I need to do to get at folders in this instance, because this setup is rendering the client semi-useless for me?

Message sent has red texts (all containing an hyperlink). When vizualized in Thunderbird they all appear in blue. When vizualized in Gmail they appear in red! Texts written in red in Thunderbird messages still appear in black in draft's message!

Recently my email subfolders stopped being visible on my Thunderbird desktop. They are still visible and accessible on my Thuderbird Android app on my phone. Any suggested remedies I see call for steps that I don't seem to have in my settings. My desktop SW version shows as 148.0.1 (up to date)

Before I recently (& reluctantly) upgraded to TB 140.8.1esr, I used to be able to paste the following in the Error Console to get a URI for an email message (or template) that I wanted to access from my calendaring app (EccoPro -- yeah, I know, one of those "from my dying hands" things, but it has never been equaled much less surpassed, just choked in the cradle by MS Office).

var hdr = gFolderDisplay.selectedMessage; alert(hdr.folder.getUriForMsg(hdr));

I would highlight the message I wanted to use, hit Shft-Ctrl -J, and paste that in the console.

I would get a notice with something like this which I could copy

"mailbox-message://nobody@Local%20Folders/Templates#10"

I could then put a clickable link in my calendaring app to run

"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" -mail "mailbox-message://nobody@Local%20Folders/Templates#10"

That message would open. Then I could hit Ctrl-E to edit it, paste as needed, and send .

This worked very well. I did not come up with it. I struck gold with Google and just copied it. With something similar to AutoHotKey I was able to automate it.

Now those URI codes no longer launch at all, and I cannot get new ones because when I paste

var hdr = gFolderDisplay.selectedMessage; alert(hdr.folder.getUriForMsg(hdr));

into Error Console I get

Uncaught ReferenceError: gFolderDisplay is not defined
   <anonymous> debugger eval code:1
   getEvalResult resource://devtools/server/actors/webconsole/eval-with-debugger.js:306

   evaluateJSAsync resource://devtools/server/actors/webconsole.js:788
   makeInfallible resource://devtools/shared/ThreadSafeDevToolsUtils.js:103

If I had known what I was doing in the first place, I might be able to adapt to this version of Thunderbird. Something obviously changed in how the Error Console operates or something.

Does anyone know anything about what command could generate a message URI so I could open it from another app using the command line?
