I've been using TB for years. I don't mind using google calendar, but contacts? This window has been popping up today for no apparent reason. If I dismiss it, it comes back in a few minutes. It seems to be a TB process. I'm on Windows 7. I do have W10 & 11 on laptops, haven't checked yet to see whether this nastiness occurs on them.

Hi, the other day I upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11. Long story short, I had to reinstall Windows 11 and all my apps, including Firefox. My visited links no longer change color. I tried the Settings / Language & Appearance / Manage Colors and nothing works. I did notice that if I click on a link, it changes color for a fraction of a second then reverts back. On a similar note, I use NoScript. I've noticed it looks different. Maybe a background grid. And Privacy Badger is missing the oval slider boxes and the colored selection tab has no color. I'm guessing this is all related somehow.

I recently installed Thunderbird 128.3.1esr (64-bit) on Ubuntu 24.04.1. I'm experiencing some odd behaviour when I sort by date, then Group by date. I generally see multiple instances of a group: typically I see multiple 'Older' groups, one at the top and one at the bottom. I restarted Thunderbird with extension disabled and the multiple Older group is gone but now I see multiple 'Today' groups. I've attached a snapshot.

Not sure if it's related or not but often the inbox is not updated with new mail even though it's set to check for new automatically every few minutes (or if I manually update). Meanwhile, mail updates on my phone immediately.

Hi!

So we use thunderbird in the board of out student association and I was chosen as the board member responsible for culture this year. The previous person responsible for this has deleted/logged out of the ”culture” email. Now neither of us can log in, even though the password and other settings are most likely correct. What should I do? I feel like the problem is the fact that there is no name connected to the account at the moment, but I am not sure.

Thanks in advance!

I have TB 128.5.1esr configured to check MS Outlook mail using the Owl for Exchange extension. To resolve an issue where Outlook misfile emails, I deactivated all my local TB mail filters and replaced them with Outlook rules. Ever since, I've had trouble with displaying messages.

All my messages appear as usual in the main the main window but often when I click on one to read it the message pane is blank. The content sometimes reappears if I select and deselect the message a few times or if I use the keyboard shortcuts to start a reply. The affected messages seem random.

I've tried repairing all my folders and I've rebuilt the mail index by deleting the sqlite file from my profile but it keeps happening. I can't figure out why changing message filtering from TB to Outlook would matter but am not sure how to troubleshoot further. Has anyone else had this problem?

thanks,

Subject: Issue with ChatGPT – Unable to Transmit, or Receive Messages on Firefox

Message:

Dear Firefox Support Team,

I am running version 134.0

I’m using Firefox on my PC, and I’ve been having trouble with accessing and using the ChatGPT platform. Specifically, when I try to send messages, they don’t transmit or load correctly. The page appears, but it seems as though the messages don’t go through.

Here are some details about the issue:

The problem occurs only when I use Firefox. Other websites and services are working perfectly fine on my browser, so I don't believe it’s an internet connectivity issue, and I have full wifi bars. I can access the site and interact with it on my phone, and on the desktop app (which goes down occasionally), but the desktop version doesn’t work properly. It worked fine for a full day, maybe two. I have a paid subscription. I’ve also noticed the error message in the Console: "Source map error: Error: request failed with status 404" in the Console when I try to interact with the platform. I’ve already tried basic troubleshooting steps, including clearing cache and cookies, disabling extensions, and ensuring my Firefox browser is up-to-date, but the issue persists. Could you please help me figure out what’s causing this problem? Any guidance or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you.

I am struggling to connect Thunderbird to my Gmail account and get all the labels/folders consistent over all the mail clients I use. I use several mail clients and usually end up with a bunch of labels that duplicate another one, so I am trying to clean it up. I should add that what is below is my best interpretation of what is happening, but it may not be correct.

I have been following the advice here:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-and-gmail#w_understanding-gmail-labels-and-thunderbird-folders

and here:

https://support.google.com/mail/answer/78892#zippy=%2Cthunderbird

This is Thunderbird 128.5.0esr (64-bit) on Mac Monterey.

Ok, so I have a Gmail account set up to use UK English. I get labels Spam and Bin.

(If I have a Gmail account set up to use US English, I get Junk and Trash. Got to wonder what Google was thinking in making them different! Oddly enough, US English gets Vacation Responder while UK English gets Out-of-office Autoreply.)

Thunderbird seems to sometimes want to use Junk and Trash, whether set to US English or GB English (=UK). This appears to be tied to the Junk Settings for the account in Thunderbird. If I disable adaptive junk mail controls, I get a new folder called Junk, and the Bin folder seems to be renamed to Trash. If I had not disabled it, presumably TB would have been happy to use Bin and Spam, but the link above suggests disabling it and letting Gmail handle spam. While it is good, it is nowhere near perfect. (If I then re-enable adaptive junk mail controls, nothing changes. It does not go back to what it was. I still have Spam, Trash and Junk.)

However, Gmail itself is still showing labels Spam and Bin and no Junk. In Junk Settings for the account, Destination & Retention, it is possible to tell TB where to put junk messages. In particular, I can sometimes tell it to put the messages in Spam. But not always. Sometimes Spam is not visible as an option but Junk is.

So then I go to Synchronization & Storage, the Advanced button. This shows that Spam and Trash are not checked so will not be downloaded (or uploaded). Junk, however, is checked and will be downloaded.

I think this means that any messages sent to Spam or Trash in TB will not be reflected on Gmail. I guess they will disappear from the original label on Gmail, but will not be visible on any other device accessing the Gmail account. Re-enabling adaptive junk mail controls does not change what is being synchronized.

It all seems a bit flakey. I suspect both links above need updating. In particular, the reference to [Gmail] folder seems out of date since setting up a new account has no references to a folder of that name. All the folders appear at the top level.

And there are definitely some inconsistencies in what TB does.
