I was able to login with my password. I got a notice popup from Fox Fire saying that I should change my PW. My PW is old. I do not understand why I received this message. Maybe tech could check my setup to make sure everything is working correctly. Thanks Lois Stiles [edited] E-mail [edited] [edited]

I imported folders and settings to a new Win 11 PC from my old Win 10 machine. Everything went fairly smoothly but I now have Local Folders (empty except for Trash and Outbox) with another Local Folders nested underneath that has all my folders. How can I remove this duplication w/o screwing things up? See attached image. Sorry it got tiny. Many thanks.

(1) In Thunderbird v. 128.5.2, I find that when I adjust the column widths for one mail folder, it changes the widths for all the other folders as well. This isn't a big deal for me since I want to have the widths the same in all folders, but what's the point of having the "apply columns to..." feature if one has no choice but to do that anyway?

(2) More frustrating is that if I try to increase the width of a column by dragging its right border to the right, it not only decreases the width of columns to the right as expected, but also decreases the width of columns to the left. Or if I try to increase the width by dragging the left border to the left, instead of increasing the width of the column I'm trying to adjust, instead it increases the width of the right-most column, and seems to make a multitude of adjustments to other columns that I don't understand. Is there a way to get the column sizer to work in the normal way? Any help would be appreciated!

Recently, thunderbird has stopped sending email from my hotmail configured account a month ago. The problem is that I tried everything, went to all blogs but nothing is working for me. In the end, I did the following:

1. Deleted the hotmail account and added account again. 2. Deleting the old passwords for microsoft365 and inserting new in Thunderbird.

With the following settings as attached.

The incoming settings are good with IMAP the only issue is with the out going SMTP server and password settings.

I suspect the problem is that I am using other microsoft365 accounts open on my PC in other tabs, thats why its not working. This means, Thunderbird is not intelligent enough to see whether the outgoing request is for the configured account. It takes the system managed or 365 managed outgoing server settings and tries to put the password (which is a wrong password for this account), and everything messes up.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

why is there no option in the settings for opening new taps to go to home page?? i do not like the look of your Firefox home page.. it confuses me when it throws my search to the top, as if i have the ( https:// ) crap..

Why is there in about:config no reference to documentation of the displayed settings?

e.g. browser.chrome.toolbar_tips.hide_on_keydown

What is it? What is the meaning of the values? What is the default value? Why do we have to guess?

It is probably documented somewhere (I hope). Why is there no reference to it in about:config?

How can mouse hover be disabled? On some websites (e.g. gva.be) when you hover (unintentionally) over some link, then this link is opened as if you had clicked on it.

How can this be disabled? I searched in about:config for mouse hover but I couldn't find anything relevant. Or do I need an extension to disable this behaviour?

Hello, is it possible to disable or alter the hotkey for viewing source? It is overriding my config for gtk-3.0, settings.ini, where gtk-key-theme-name=emacs. While I do have the emacs keybindings go to start of line, go to end of line, and delete to end of line but not this (personally) most used hotkey. I looked in about:config for source, but those appear to only modify the tab/window/editor which the source is viewed in, but not the shortcut to reach it. It does work for most of my applications, except fltk-based ones and ones where the application sets its own macro overriding the gtk config.

I had to reinstall Thunderbird. Once I got into it, I noticed the layout had changed. Before all the message would be on top and if I clicked on a message, the message would show up on the bottom of the page. Now the message shows up on the right hand side. How do I change it to back it was? I did make a backup of my Thunderbird before I reinstalled it (months ago), how can I transfer my address book from that copy to the new copy? Thanks Dan

With both "Open" and "Edit", Thunderbid's calendar event windows can be moved to a desired location and will persist, just as they always have. But I can remember back when the resizing of each window used to persist as well. Is there some way in the advanced settings, to restore that ability?

Beim Verfassen wird ständig "Absatz" statt "Normaler Text" angezeigt. Wenn man dann "Normaler Text" auswählt erscheint bei der nächsten Zeile automatisch wieder "Absatz". Wie kann man "Normaler Text" als Standard integrieren?

I have been spending hours and hours on this trying to get Thunderbird working on my Windows 11 computer. I want to transfer my profile from my Windows 10 computer to my Windows 11 computer. I want to get back my settings especially my address book. I have tried exporting and importing. I have tried copying and then pasting the profile files individually. I get error messages all the time. Not sure if it is because I am running Bitdefender or what. Not sure what else I can do. Anyone have any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance!!
