Sorry if this should be obvious to me: Can I have a unified folder containing only individually-chosen folders from several accounts?

In K9 on Android I can select one by one which folders from several accounts go into Unified view. Can I do that in Thnderbird itself? It looks like either I can do unified view, which unifies eg Inbox and Send but doesn't let me pick which others specific folders are included, or I can Favourites view which lets me pick folders but doesn't unify them. Can I do both?

Many thanks.

Answers to the question "how to turn off all threading in Thunderbird" no longer work with changed menu structures in Thunderbird 115. What is the answer to this question now?

With the recent change of putting new messages in a nested 'thread', new messages are still bold; But because it is now nested, one doesn't know if there is a new message at a glance like before.

I've seen in a comment posted here about the same situation but it involves creating css files and such.

Could thunderbird not make some adjustment and just highlight the top visible message as bold if there is a new message within it's thread?

Since a recent update my top tool bar to the right of Inbox has a long string of recent deleted messages which is of no use to me. How can I revert to the old format which just provided command options such as address book etc.

Hi,

I am using Thunderbird 115.8.1 on Linux Mint 21.3 with Cinnamon desktop.

I am having difficulties to spot new messages as they sometimes look very similar. Sometimes the message subject has blue color, but sometimes, it is only printed in bold and bold and regular letters look very similar with this font (see image).

I followed the steps in this post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1426183 However, this has absolutely no effect.

~/.thunderbird/k5v0nfyc.default-release/chrome$ cat userChrome.css /*

* Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning
*/

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* set default namespace to XUL */

/* threads pane unread bg colour */

1. threadTree tr[data-properties~="unread"] {background-color:pink !important;}

Thanks in advance for your help.

New thunderbird user here. When in cards view, and threads enabled. If a thread is collapsed and a new message arrives, it only underlines the thread subject and sender. This makes it easy to miss. I'd like it bold, or change the background or something to scream out "HEY! you got a new message in here dummy" heh.

I followed these posts but it doesn't change it for me. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1265223 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1366417#answer-1479972

I tried adding @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); didnt work. I made other changes that I found in other threads so i know my userChrome.css does indeed "work" or is recognized by Thunderbird.

Help pls :) Thanks in advance!!!!

Thunderbird 115.8.1 64bit (I do not know when the last update happened) on Windows 10 64 bit After migrating to Thunderbird from another mailprogram, I have been receiving emails with pictures displayed in them for about a year without problem. Suddenly 2 days ago no more pictures are shown within the emails. Only links. I have not changed any configs. Is that a feature which has come via update? I have activated that external content is allowed in mails. Any idea why TB suddenly behaves like that and what I can do?

I don't use Windows Mail and have Thunderbird as my default email. However, when on a website using Firefox, and click on a "contact us" link to activate an email message to the website folks, a Windows Mail composition window opens instead of a Thunderbird composition window. I have to copy the email address out of the Windows Mail "To" field and paste into the Thunderbird "To" field.

How do I configure things such that clicking on a web link to open and start an email to said website results in that occurring in Thunderbird and not Windows Mail?

I'm on Win11 with latest Thunderbird as default email app and use latest Firefox browser.

Thanks! Eric

I receive several newsletters with lots of links. The newsletter writers send their product out with covered links. For instance https://xyz.link is hidden under "XYZ information", underlined so the reader knows it's a link. Thunderbird converts the links to raw links. I cannot for the life of me why Thunderbird does this. It makes the newsletters almost impossible to read. I'm attaching a screenshot. I took one newsletter into my Libre Write to restore the newsletter to it's readability. It took me two hours. I hope there is a way I can take control of how the links arrive in my email.

I'm trying to change my pop3 account to imap to sync with my aol.com account. I've gone through the process of setting up a new account in TB and added the aol IMAP and SMTP settings, but the "checking password" at the top of the page never goes away. I'm using the same password that I use to access aol.com from the web.

There must be some secret that I'm missing. Thanks.

I have played with View options and checked all settings I can see. I am happy with font size of the table view, and the sidebar with folders. But the pane below (i have vertical display) where the actual body content of emails is shown (and this applies to displaying them in new tabs too), the font is really small, smaller than the table view above. I can't find any way to increase this font size, is it possible? Thanks

I like to have newest emails at the top of the list rather than bottom. I have just moved 30GB of email data to TB from 20 yrs on Mac Mail. Hooray!

I don't need to explain how many local folders I've got, and the pain it will be to sort every folder manually!

Please could someone advise me how to force all folders to sort by date/descending? thanks

I contribute monthly to Thunderbird, is there any way to disable the default page asking for donations?

Instead, you could just have a page that says thanks for a contribution (and a link to the page for managing it).

Or, I guess is there some way to edit that default page when launching Thunderbird?

For more than a week now this is happening - no spell check while I'm typing. I finally typo-ed (obviously mis-spelled) and went into settings. 'Check Spelling while typing' box was checked - but it isn't working; and it still isn't.

If I mark a message as Unread, it appears in the list of messages in boldface type. But I am finding it very hard to distinguish those in bold from other messages that have been read and are not bold. Is there anything in advanced settings that would allow me to change the fill colour in the listing box, or perhaps the colour of the type, in order to distinguish unread messages more visibly from those I have read? Thanks!

I need help editing the personal dictionary in Thunderbird. Tonight I accidentally told it to save a misspelled word. I clicked on edit in the window, and it brought up my dictionary, but it was way longer than my screen, and I could find no scroll bar. It also would not let me move the dictionary window! Can anyone help me overcome this so I can delete the incorrect word?

Thanks!

I am running TB 115.8 on two separate Macs. On one Mac the inbox does not show the curved arrow and > sign along the left margin while the other does. I want to eliminate it on the Mac that shows them. How do I do it?
