Onboarding with RSS subscriptions for a couple weeks and can't make any sense out of the folder hierarchy structure.

• UI's folder structure & the Subscription settings folder structure screenshots included.
• Folder A seems logically coherent: a "folder full of feeds". Single folder in UI. Multiple feeds (3) show up in the queue
• Folder B structure starts to become much more incoherent

   - Feed's are actually folders now. Sometimes.
       + Feed1 & Feed3 = folders. But UI 'folder' displays just the one feed, as if it was a feed.
       + Feed2 = folder, with the 'actual' feed within it. But then it displays in the exact same way as Feeds 1 and 3
   - seem to have contradictions running in both directions.
       + If they are feeds, is confusing they display with folder icon
       + Not clear why a feed-as-a-folder would display exactly the same as a feed-within-a-folder

• "feed7" situation I can't understand to be anything other than a bug.

   - Subscribed to the feed within folder C. It instead shows up in the UI in Folder B. 
       + Which bafflingly *only* includes feed7, and does not roll up or aggregate any of the feed/folders (whatever they are) within it.

Like the integration of having RSS within Thunderbird, but need some clarification. Docs (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-subscribe-news-feeds-and-blogs#w_folders-and-accounts) were not of use.

Thanks.

I would like some help setting up my new Thunderbird app so that I can save emails to my computer and free up space in my Gmail account. I've tried twice to set up my default profile to an external drive instead of my "C "drive but I don't think it's working properly. Every time I change the profile it asks me to set up a new file like I'm starting all over again !! Also I would like to have it set up so that when I delete a file in Thunderbird it also deletes it from my Gmail inbox. I would greatly appreciate help with this. Thanks so much.

I'm in the process of cleaning up Thunderbird e-mail before moving to a new computer. I started with 11,593 e-mails in my Inbox and 7,799 e-mails in my Sent folder. I'm now down to 7,634 in my Inbox and 4,965 in my Sent folder. I've allocated 2 weeks for this process and found that it's taking me about 3 hours per day to meet my daily goals. I'm finding that I'm spending at LEAST half the time responding to "Empty-Trash/Compact-folders" requests. There are times I can delete 50 e-mails at a time without getting a request. Other times I will try to delete ten e-mails and get the request. With the old version of Thunderbird I could literally delete hundreds of e-mails at a time. Can you help? Russ Bukwa Yardley, PA ps. I have intentionally given you specific numbers. Based on my software- and test-engineering experience, I speculate you need to create a stress test to solve this nagging problem.

Transfer Thunderbird email and data to another computer. I have attempted to transfer my email data from / to Windows 10 computers. The instructions seem straightforward but so far I have not been able to bring up the "new" computer after copying / transferring the data. I have a Linux laptop I could transfer to, but the versions don't match and I'm not sure it would work anyway. Any help or direction to instructions (I thought I have looked everywhere) would be great. Thanks

I have lost the toolbar at the top where I get all my messages. It is the tool bar that includes "View, Edit, Message, Layout Help etc.) Can you help me get it back?

I would like to be able to click the little fire icon on an email in my "list of emails" window to Mark as Spam, then have Thunderbird automatically move it to my Bulk folder after that.

I looked to see if I could set up a filter to do that, but don't see "Marked as Spam" as one of the selection criteria.

Is there a setting to accomplish what I'm looking for?

Sometimes while I am in an other program, there pops up at the right side a message from Thunderbird that there has come an email. I don't want that but there is no way I can control this.

Hi, I've read all I can find with regard to 'Threading' but still can't separate all the emails into separate emails. I can't find anything that explains exactly how to switch it off, or how to remove threading from emails already in a thread. I've tried every combination of On, Off, Compact etc. all with no effect. Please explain exactly how to get rid of this damn nuisance. The previous version was much better.

Sometimes when I copy & past part of an article, et,c it changes some of the format settings for TB email. I've been unable to change text style back to the original setting of the email. What I pasted will have ended in a footnote in superscript and I can't change the text style back to no specific text style or any other text style. IIf i click on discontinue text styles (in Format menu) if I try to continue typing email message it'll still be in superscript. This has happened multiple times. I can skip to the next line, doesn't matter, superscript will still be the text style, not the original text style of the email.

How do I return the text style to the original settings?

This is a request for developers.

When replying or forwarding an email and including a previous email in the reply/forward, Thunderbird automatically inserts colorful vertical lines | .

I would like to remove any type of vertical line (or carrot >) from these emails.

How do I remove any vertical lines or other notations from replies or forwards. It is all very distracting.

I hope this request can be seen by developers.

Thanks.

A message sent to me never appeared in my mailbox but was labeled "blacklisted by user" I cannot find a way to undo this !

550: 5.7.1 [PF] Mail rejected by policy. (Blacklisted by user)

I have CPTSD to yellow color. It is possible that I will feel headaches or stomachaches after I see that color too often. I just wonder is that possible to let us change the color. It is fine we cannot and I just allow remote content instead.

Somehow I have lost my check and download email buttons at the top left of Thunderbird. I have checked what I believe is every option to get them back but to no avail. Somehow I hid the easy enough but now they are gone I can't seem to find out how to get them back.

Thoughts? Darren

I am experiencing strange behaviour with Thunderbird and certain add-ons. For some time now, when I use certain add-ons that are supposed to display a menu, the menu does not appear. It is replaced by a circle (see attached image : two different add-ons, not showing simultaneously, but merged into the same capture). I have disabled all other add-ons, but this has not resolved the issue. I think there must be a setting that is causing the problem. But with so many settings, I don't know where to look.

Does anyone know how to find the reason for this behaviour?

I am using Thunderbird 139.0.2 (64-bit) with Windows 11.

Thank you for helping.
