Hi,

I spent some time modifying my filters to handle new messages that I hadn't handled before. Afterwards the filters mostly worked but a few didn't. I checked them repeatedly and they're correctly formed. When I run filters manually and I check the log it says the action (moved message to Advertising) was done, but it wasn't.

When I select the Advertising folder and move my pointer over the message window it displays as an hourglass and the top of the folder list shows a dot oscillating back and forth. Waiting a long time didn't help. I compacted the folders and that didn't help either. TB was responsive and the Advertising window behaved normally too, i.e. I could scroll, view, mark, or forward a message normally. The Task Manager showed CPU use continuous from 2 to 5%. I checked and my C: drive had 62 GB free and the Recycle Bin had nothing significant on C: so that shouldn't be a problem. Eventually (maybe 15 min. later?) that stopped happening, but the filter problem persisted.

I noticed that Advertising had 10,701 messages so I selected the oldest 10,042 and deleted them, but that failed with an error message saying I should empty Trash, compact folders, and try again. I did that and it completed successfully.

After all that I tried again and the filters still didn't work, but now the Advertisements folder was behaving normally.

That's about all I can think of. How do I get the filters working again.

After searching and only finding old outdated post of other subjects. This is unique to hearing aids Bluetooth connection. I can hear from my hearing aids the sound made by windows but even with the sound setting pointing to the hearing aids no sound from a Firefox video. Must be the player problem. I don't know. Does the player need to be upgraded?

I tried to add as remote address book in Thunderbird a google account using CardDAV and providing the CardDAV URL, the Google username and the password and fails validation. From Log Viewer:

Please note that I could do without problems exactly the same operation (exactly the same CardDAV URL, Google username and the password) about 2 months ago using a slightly older version of Thunderbird. Also just logging in in Google in Firefox with the username and the password of the remote address book works fine and I can see all the contacts. So this problem looks like a bug introduced very recently in Thunderbird that was not happening 2 months ago or so. This makes Thunderbird unusable for me, so until this is fixed I will switch back to Evolution. Please let me know when fixed or if you have another solution. Thanks.

Is there a way or will this it be added for header information be added when replying to emails? That information is needed on replies. It is only avaialble if you do a forward of a message so why not during a reply. The reply with header should be similar to Outlook or Gmail it seems to be a standard across many email clients.

Example:

When I'm using my Firefox browser and signing in to my Gmail account, the autofill function always gives me several old, expired gmail account names that I don't wish to see anymore. It's very annoying. I think I have turned off all the autofill options under Firefox>Preferences, but all these old account names keep showing up. Any suggestions for how to solve this? Thank you

Up until 2 weeks ago (so middle of June 2023) I had no issues with Firefox. However, since then I cannot open any 'GoogleAds' suggestions/links when searching products etc on my Acer Aspire Laptop (2023)?

I have Windows 11, Google is my nominated browser and my antivirus program is the same as when it was working OK.etc?

Non GoodleAds links, seem to work fine

As I don't know the exact date accessing the links/suggestions stopped working, I have no idea as to whether any Windows update has caused the issue with Firefox?

I can find my way round a computer, but I am not computer technically minded.

Any help would be appreciated as I am disabled and bedridden, so the internet is my key to the world.

PROBLEM ACCESSING MY GMAIL VIA FIREFOX

My wife and I both have (separate) Gmail accounts – we access them on Win 10 computers, using Firefox. I have set up two Firefox “buttons” (one for each Gmail address), both of which worked perfectly – until today!

Now, when I click on EITHER of the two Gmail “buttons” I get ONLY my wife’s email! I CAN access my own Gmail with either my Android phone OR using the Edge browser however!

So far as I can see, nothing has changed with the two URLs (a different one for each button) – I’ve tried setting up a ‘new’ button from scratch and just using 'my' URL in the search bar but both still give the same result – my wife’s email account!

HELP!!

The android does not work anymore, it happened last week. I have reinstalled the app but that does not work. In the image is an example what I see when I try to open a webpage. The webpage won't begin with loading.

I have spent all evening using the Console to debug a project I have been working on. All of a sudden it now displays event information for every click, every keypress (up and down events separately), every selection, everything. This now happens on (almost) any site I visit. This is so absurdly verbose anything I am hoping to debug is buried under mountains of extraneous information about my inputs.

Is this is a setting that can be disabled somewhere, that I enabled without realising somehow? I have spent some considerable amount of time poking around trying to find some setting, but to no avail. It was certainly not behaving this way before, is it possible to change this back?

More a Concern or Desire than a question.

Very common these days (2023) are device types - PCs, Cell Phones, etc. Firefox browser is available to (my main interest) Windows PCs and Android Cell Phone. Then their OS, versions, etc. All have many differences so establishing these differences in the beginning of questios and explainations are critical to the assumptions going forward in support.

The moz://a Support (most support forums) overlook this vital step before delving down into the myriad of complex and different option settings and discussions. I'm no professional but am confident that instruction details are likely very specific to the different device/OS, versions, Platforms, etc. That said I am very frustrated to the lack of a definite starting point for research as most if not all that information is useless to ones specific needs.

Hope you can take this to Hart and consider adjusting the Top Level Titles and/or providing Option Filters to better guide users to their specific needs.

A little different but related, in the old DOS days the c:\\ path format was a very useful practice to provide an orientation of where you are logically. It even accommodates a backward or higher level logic projection up into the internet or devices. I'm only amateur in the full understanding but am fairly certain of its existence. These no nonsense logical establishments go a long way in understanding & conveying complex theory. STANDARDS.

Thank you. Rod

After search results show and I click to view one of them and then hit the back button to go back to the same search results they have somehow changed. What setting do I need to change to keep this from happening? See photos,...... (Search Results 1) in the original results and (Search Results 2) is what happens if I click on one of the results to read and then hit the back button to get back to the results.

When my cat walked across my keyboard and somehow deletes multiple emails from my inbox, I started searching for a way to undelete them. The only icon for the trash folder I can find is the one that's labeled "Empty Trash". I've searched Firebird Help for terms like "undelete" and "access trash folder", "retrieve from trash", etc etc, but have found no mention of this common problem, or the common solution that so many other applications have. I also searched settings for "trash" but found nothing related. What am I doing wrong?

Hello,

Am I missing something, or is it unfortunately still (v114.2.0) not possible to deactivate the grouping of the history? Found an older thread here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1367126

Thank you, greetings Martin

Why won't Thunderbird email work for me? It always wants password for "ricc on imap,shaw.ca" I phoned Shaw (my isp) but they don't support Thunderbird

Hi there ! I'm trying to use the same msgFilterRules.dat for several mail account. To do that I tried to use Windows symbolic links. I copied my main msgFilterRules.dat onto a common place (GoogleDrive) and then I replaced each msgFilterRules.dat in my profiles by a symbolic link.

example : mklink msgFilterRules.dat "C:\Users\guyot\Google Drive\datajp\msgFilterRules.dat" Lien symbolique créé pour msgFilterRules.dat <<===>> C:\Users\guyot\Google Drive\datajp\msgFilterRules.dat

This was working as expected, BUT as soon as I update the msgFilterRules.dat of one of my mail account the symbolic link is replaced by a regular text file.

Is there a way to avoid to have to copy again the updated msgFilterRules.dat on GoogleDrive and to re-create the symbolic link.

Thanks for your informations and help.

Regards.

Hi. I have started having trouble accessing some pages that I have reached easily in the past. When I enter the website address, I get the following..

The MediaWiki logo MediaWiki 1.31 internal error

Installing some PHP extensions is required. Required components

You are missing a required extension to PHP that MediaWiki requires to run. Please install:

   mbstring (more information)
   iconv (more information)
   fileinfo (more information)

- an example of the address that produces this result is:

https://wiki.apterous.org/Episode_8050

I am not sure what has gone wrong, or how to fix it. I tried clicking on 'more information' and found some alarming technobabble way beyond my limited comprehension. What is 'mbstring' 'iconv' and 'fileinfo'? - and how do I 'install' them? This site has worked in the past, so I am mystified. Thanks for any help. - John

With two TB IMAP email accounts, I am seeing incorrect return paths in the headers and sent mail copies from one account. Both are google accounts, B is a business google account and A is a personal gmail account.

Email sent from account B is delivered to the proper address, but with a return path to account A. So all replies are coming back to the wrong account.

I have double checked the setting for Copies & Folder and both stipulate unique locations. I have even tried to specify the correct B email in the Reply-to Address. Copies of the sent email are saved in the Gmail Sent Mail folders on BOTH accounts! The header in the copy in the A Sent Mail shows it is from my personal account, not my business account!

I notice one odd thing -- This seems to have started happening when I switched business domain registrars and moved business email from godaddy to dreamhost. Sent mail copies had previously been saved to the regular Sent folder but after editing the settings for the mail server, it switched to the Gmail Sent Mail folder. Could that have anything to do with it?

(I'm not all that knowledgeable with the technical end, just enough to probably get myself in trouble.)

Thanks in advance for any advice/suggestions.

All of a sudden, I cannot send emails using Thunderbird.

I get: "Login to server mobile.charter.net with username (my emails address) failed."

When I hit cancel I get: "Unable to authenticate to outgoing server (SMTP) mobile.charter.net Please check password and verify the 'Authentication method' in account settings outgoing server (SMTP)"

I have not changed anything.

I set up Thunderbird a very long time ago and I have no clue how to start trouble shooting this.

Can I get a step by step process to fixing this??

Even when I input my PW, which I know is correct, it still will not let me send emails.

Thanks

Bob

Came across this well known spam message in my gmail inbox today, but it only shows up in search.

I logged into the web interface for the gmail inbox and search there doesn't find it.

I deleted the local folders and re-installed - still there.

Thoughts?
