Running Thunderbird 140.5.0esr

This has been happening for a few weeks now somewhat randomly. The folders under Mail for one of my accounts keep moving around and are not in alphabetical order anymore. Most folders are OK, but a few either jump to the top of bottom of the list. I can manually drag them back, only for different folders to do it the next time.

The folders in questions are 2 levels down from Mail.

Just installed Thunderbird on a new laptop running Windows 11. Accounts are set up and I can see all the emails in my inbox. They are in the Table View. My problem is that I can not view the contents of the email. I used to be able to click/highlight a message and its contents would be displayed below the list of emails. I am unable get this view. Can you please help. Thank you, Jim

Forwarded emails contain no signature, either above or below the forwarded email body.

No means exists in settings to specify that a signature should be in forwarded emails.

Thunderbird resists configuration for included signatures specified in the configuration editor.

Is there a reason that settings, such as columns, layout, ordering, folder colours, etc. are not retained in the msf itself?

I have to use multiple machines, so tend to have an archive that I share across them as the primary storage of emails. However, nothing is retained between machines which is a bit annoying when trying to colour code for easy visual cues. So it seems clear that this information is currently stored in the local profile, even though the archive data is a filesystem.

My wife and I have separate emails and we also share an email account. My laptopn has Thunderbird profile set up to receive from both and data is held on our local NAS Wifes Laptop does the same and her data is on her folder on local NAS. For the shared email, we can each access and it creates a local copy on BOTH of our respective folders on the NAS. Whilst this works, i cant help wondering if we're setting up a sync loop. THe shared email isnt used much, but is there a way that we can share the exact same files /data for the shared email on the local NAS. ie. Still have one view in Thunderbird client but have the shared email data be on a common shared folder. Still keeping our separate profiles. This worked for Outlook pst files. But New Outlook is a disaster hence moving to THunderbird. . This seems to be a simple scenario. 3 email accounts 1 shared. 3 local data sets. One shared. 2 separate laptopns and THunderbird installations. One common local NAS. ANyone have any guidance for best practice ? THanks

When in dark mode, forwarded emails: • Are not in dark mode notwithstanding that new emails are. • Bear no resemblance to the email being forwarded whatsoever, with boxes all over and colors completely different not only from those in the email being forwarded, but also from those specified for emails being sent. • Resist configuration of body text, so that not only is the background white instead of black, text remains white or a very pale yellow but illegible in any event.

Hi, I dont know what setting I have accidently changed but before I used to double click a new message in my inbox on local folders and now instead of reading it full screen now it wants to send it as an email message to someone!

Any ideas to put it back to just read the email and not compose a message with it?

Thanks.

I dont remember having this 'new message template' thing before when I right clicked on a message in my inbox , maybe thats what the issue is?

Does anyone else increase the size of the Thunderbird window hoping to see more of the email in the message pane? But instead, we just get a longer index of messages. Then have to move the border of the message pane up. This is only for the occasional need to see more in a single page, but frequent enough that I'm repeatedly having to resize the pane for individual message, then resize it again when I return to my normal window height. Yeah, I know I can open in separate tab, but seems allocating the space to index/message pane on window resize, ought to at least be done equally, if not all to the message pane.

Is it possible to open incoming mails in the same window as the list of e-mails, just like in Google? I get distracted from seeing suddenly my e-mail in another window/tab.

Thank you!!

Hi I have 2 gmail accounts set up in TB. Neither of which are my daily accounts.

I've noticed that both of them put a copy of any email I receive into archives, as well as my inbox. I've checked my account settings & they're identical to those of all my other email accounts.

Not only that, but one of the accounts puts every email I receive into inbox, archive AND archive for that email address, so basically, I'm getting 3 copies of all those emails.

What I want to happen is what happens for all my other emails. They arrive into inbox & I put them in local folders/delete as appropriate

All help gratefully received Thanks

hello, every time i start thunderbird, i'm presented with a tab that shows me the privacy policy. EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. i don't need to read it every time; reading it once and confirming is enough. but there doesn't seem to be any way to confirm, or disable this annoyance. how can i get it to stop? is there a setting somewhere, or registry entry i can change?

Thunderbird Desktop Version 115.18.0esr

Hello,

This is the second email I am sending to get help.

I selected my composing font type and color in setting. When I start to compose an email, the font type and text color are shown as I selected. However, as soon as I start typing the text, the color goes to default (black).

Please advise,

Surendra

PLEASE put the format options back into the email task bar! My formatting needs to be done on a message by message basis. It is time consuming and counterproductive to have to go to settings each time. No matter what I tried in settings, I was not able to get Formatting back into the message task bar. At minimum, I need font, size, list and color options back in the message task bar. PLEASE HELP!

I find using format painter is so useful to correct font type and format when cutting and pasting from other sources. Is there a plan to add this to the Thunderbird email portfolio? If not, how can I correct font size and format because when I use the drop down menu, the request is ignored or corrected to something close but not exact, even if I select all the text to format it in one single type and I still end up with text in all sorts of crazy formats.
