As a public librarian, when I do a monthly update for the public computers I also update Firefox. Every time I do a Firefox update, I have to at minimum open Firefox twice, once to get the "here's a bunch of advertising for a thing you already use!" Out of the way, and then at least another time so I can make sure there isn't another ad page, so I can clear the history. Doing this every time I update Firefox is just a small pain point, but I don't enjoy having to do it a dozen times when I update our computers each month, and this month I had to do it three times because of the number of advertisements.

When I launch Thunderbird via icon ( version 158), it always brings me to sign on page for Thundermail.. If Thundermail is by invitation only, how do I get back to the real TB page. I can access webmail, my account, and portal. I only see Version 156 in download folder and only have default-release and default in the profile. I have no clue then what is happening. Will bringing back an earlier version. "ABOUT" shows version 158 and nothing else.

Also, my android email & passwords have remained constant and I did not have to change anything.

PLEASE STOP RELEASING UNTESTED UPDATES

I use a number of add-ons that greatly enhance Thunderbird but they keep breaking as new updates are released:

Cardbook is a very useful address book add-on, integrating with my Google address book. However a few months ago it stopped working when a Thunderbird update was automatically installed (I think it was V158). The only way of overcoming this was to revert back to the ESR (Extended Support Release). That wasn't compatible with the database that had been modified by the latest release. Fortunately I had a back-up copy of the previous database which I had to recover.

A couple of months ago a new release stopped Cardbook working. By trial and error I discovered that Cardbook had been updated for compatibility with the latest Thunderbird release so I was able to restore normal operation by updating to Thunderbird V158.

Now Thunderbird has updated to V159 and Cardbook has stopped working again. If I open Cardbook it shows the address book completely empty. The Add-on Manager doesn't flag any compatibility issues. This is disasterous for me as I am totally dependent on using Cardbook.

Lightning Calendar Tabs is another useful add-on, giving access to my Google Calendar through a icon in the task bar. However that has also stopped working under V159. The Add-on Manager shows it as being incompatible with V159.

So why does Mozilla keep releasing updates that stop add-ons from working?. Can I revert back to V158 and stop further updates?

Hey there, I've installed Firefox and let it create the shortcut in the start menu, which results in a shortcut under `C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs` (as expected), but every time I update Firefox via the "Menu > Help and Report > About Firefox" dialog, it creates a shortcut under the current users Roaming folder `C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs`. Deleting the file will only work until the next update. Does anyone know a way to stop that behaviour?

When will an ESR version of Thunderbird with Microsoft Graph support be available

I have had messages about EWS support being ended from 1st October from the Beonex ExQuilla Add-On which I have been using for many years.

So I installed Beonex's new Owl Add-On which supports Microsoft Graph Protocol and migrated my Email accounts. However, this just renamed my existing account with "Old" at the end and created new ones which cannot connect!

The IT provider for the Email Domain will not allow the Owl Beonex App to connect, despite the ExQuilla one being used for many years!

They have now pointed out that Thunderbird natively supports the Microsoft Graph Protocol from Release 154. BUT I am on the ESR channel (as I need stable Email handling) and the latest ESR Release is 153.4.0esr!

So when will an ESR be released with Graph Support, as Microsoft could stop me being able to receive and send Emails any day as it is now past 1st October???? - Please let me know your timeline for the next ESR with Graph support A.S.A.P.

I do not want to install a non-ESR as I see that the latest Release 157.0.1 fixed a bug with the Graph protocol and 155.0 streamlined the manual account configuration. So I want stick with stable releases!

Also, do I have to add new accounts to use Microsoft Graph, or can I just change the configuration of my existing ones?

If the former, then I guess once I am happy I have all old Emails available (as I rely on Emails going back many years!), I can delete the original Accounts from Thunderbird, including the non-working " Old" ones created by the ExQuilla to Owl migration????

Thanks
