Let me give a minimal example to create a scenario.

Please note that I mostly use Keyboard shortcuts, which play important part in this bug.

So let us say, I have only two messages in Gmail.

  1. Subject: This is new but unimportant message
  2. Subject: This is old and important message

Now thunderbird synced Inbox as well as All Mail folder of Gmail. And both the folders have same mails.

So: Inbox shows 1/2 (one unread, total 2 messages) All mail also shows 1/2 (one unread, total 2 messages)

As I said earlier, I mostly use Keyboard shortcuts.

  1. I open Inbox.
  2. And read first message (with subject: This is new but unimportant message).
  3. I find unimportant. So I press 'Del' key to delete that message
  4. Then I immediately press 'n' to move to next unread message
  5. Now thunderbird takes me to All Mail folder of GMail
  6. Since All Mail still does not know that 1st email was deleted from Inbox folder, it shows me same email again in All Mail folder.
  7. So I press 'Del' key to delete that message (which was already deleted from Inbox but not synced with All mail)
  8. But by the time I press 'Del' key the thunderbird synced the All Mail folder, and on its own deleted the first message and focus was dropped on 2nd email.
  9. Now since focus was dropped on 2nd (important) email while I was pressing the Del key, instead of deleting first unimportant email, I accidentally deleted 2nd important email without realizing what happened. (Important message is gone without me realizing)
  10. This issue was not there earlier (I believe before Supernova). Earlier focus did not fall on 2nd email automatically but thunderbird completely de-focused the pane. So even if I press Del key it would not delete anything.

I have had many instances of important email going to Trash because of this newly introduced bug. Noticing mostly after Supernova was introduced.

In above example there were just 2 emails, so one would immediately notice that How come all emails vanished when I just deleted one email.

But in reality I have hundreds of new messages and would not realize that Del key was pressed on an important email because thunderbird changed the focus.

Please look in to the bug and resolve

Thank you

I stopped using LastPass a couple of years ago due to them having security issues. I use Pocket and have used them for a number of years. I received an email from Pocket saying they were migrating to Firefox and in order to access what I saved to Pocket in the past, I need to use Firefox. I downloaded Firefox and LastPass is not letting me log in. I use BitWarden as my password manager. I tried accessing Firefox with the sign in and password that I used in the past but LastPass keeps giving me an error message.

Recently I have been unable to send email from Thunderbird although I can still receive email in Thunderbird. I get the following error message:

 "The message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.comcast.net was lost in the middle of the transaction.Try again."

However, I can send email when I log into my Comcast email account from a web browser (Firefox). Therefore, when I called Comcast, they insisted the problem in Thunderbird or some other app. I doubt that, however, because a local tech support company took my PC and did the following to troubleshoot the problem:

- They tried using an email client other than Thunderbird and still could not send email and got the same error. - They deleted my email account in Thunderbird, uninstalled Thunderbird, and then reinstalled Thunderbird and added my email account but was unable to send email and got the same error message. - They installed Thunderbird on a different PC and added my email account but was unable to send email and got the same error message. - They checked the third-party setting for accessing Comcast email and it was set correctly as Security->Third party access.


Here's my configuration. I've also attached screen shot of my Thunderbird settings. • My mail provider: Comcast • ISP: Comcast • Firewall version and antivirus software: Kapersky Total Security version 21.3.10.391 • OS: Windows 10 Home version 22H2 • Thunderbird 115.2.3

Hi,

I hope you are doing well. I am completely blind. I've been facing a problem with thunderbird. Whenever I try to sign into gmail, it says unable to log in, probably wrong configuration, username and password: This is in spite of the fact that I've used my correct password multiple times, I did a double check by signing in and out on the web multiple times to confirm. My email is muhammed3198@gmail.com I also checked my settings to see if imap was enabled, which it is. Please help and fix this issue as urgently as possible. I even selected configure manually to see if all the configuration settings were correct, and they seem to be, like the ports, the incoming and outcoming settings, etc. Please help. Best regards, Muhammad.

In one of my email accounts, there are a couple of senders whose emails always go to junk mail, no matter how many filters I set up to try to prevent it. For example, messages from one of them always have 'WKCC' included in the Subject line, and 'members2members' in the To line. I've set up innumerable filters based on those features, checking 'Manually Run' and 'Getting New Mail', choosing to filter before or after Junk Classification, and choosing to move the message to the Inbox. I've also tried choosing to apply the filter 'Periodically, every 10 minutes'. In every case, after setting up the filter, when I click on 'Run Now', the junk mail is correctly moved to the Inbox, and it stays there. But future messages are NEVER correctly prevented from going to the Junk Email folder, nor are messages in the junk folder processed every 10 minutes when I request that.

I'm at a loss, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Autoplay media blocking does not work. I've tried to block autoplay on sites settings and also done this about:config fix without results.

   media.autoplay.default = 5 [0:allow;1:blockAudible;2:Prompt;5:blockAll]
   media.autoplay.blocking_policy = 2
   media.autoplay.allow-extension-background-pages = false
   media.autoplay.block-event.enabled = true '

Videos still start playing in some websites. I've noticed that when reloading the page, then autoplay blocking works.

Example: https://www.iltalehti.fi/formulat/a/35242327-7699-45a2-a1b5-75ff330a9d13 When i go to page first time, it shows on the left of address bar, that autoplay function is not even enabled (no autoplay block icon). When i reload/refresh the page, then it shows that autoplay is disabled and autoplay block is working properly (icon appears).

So it's only issue when visiting the page first time, if page is refreshed, no issues.
