I have 10 email accounts in my Thunderbird 115.12.2 (64-bit) and I am using Microsoft Windows 10 Pro and all my sent, draft, archives and templates are going into a different folder. I want them to go into the folder from which the email was sent but they are all going into the email tinakeeling@att.net.

I have changed it to reflect the correct folder but then a few days later and every time I restart Thunderbird the program changes the folders back to tinakeeling@att.net

I have even unchecked the box "place a copy in" and when Thunderbird is restarted it reverts back.

What can I do to fix this issue?

See attached picture of what I am talking about

I'm on tb 128 and use roadrunner. I see my emails on spectrum server but can't download them? I was using pop, they said imap is needed.

   Username: Your full Spectrum email address

   Password: Your Spectrum email password

   SSL: On

   Protocol: IMAP

   Incoming Server Port: 993

   Outgoing Server Port: 587

   Requires Authentication: Yes, or checked

I had problems connecting with Thunderbird for 24 hours (I connect via an imap server from my Sky account). When this was rectified, email folders which I had created had disappeared. These contain historical emails which I can ill-afford to lose. How do I restore these?

Questions re Email Inbox and Reply window:

1) I can't find a list here showing the Inbox icons and what they mean, specifically this one. I can't delete it, nor do I see anything in the inbox list of column indicators that it might be. I'd like to know what it's for and if/how it can be removed.

2) I want to have more space for the message pane; the only way to do this is to have a smaller font size for the email List pane. I don't see where I can change this. Is it possible to decrease this font size? I've tried but haven't t been able to locate info on this website.)

3) Reply font: I keep changing it to my Preference, but it keeps going back to a default.

Also, find it annoying that I can't select a specific font SIZE. I've never seen a Windows desktop software of ANY kind, not just email, which doesn't give have choice of font size as well as the font itself. Is there a suggestion area on this website?

Thanks.

I get many messages with with unreadable text/background color combinations; near black text on a black background for instance. I searched for an hour on the web and played with themes and settings and couldn't find a way to make all received messages readable.

I realize Facebook doesn't have a spell check feature,but is there a way my browser, Firefox, which I already have spell check enabled can somehow spell check Facebook when I chat? Can someone help? Thank you.

How to completely reset Thunderbird preferences except for configured accounts? I mean all visualization preferences, menus, themes, buttons, whatever. But don't touch e-mail accounts.

The fucking forced dark mode has return despite the previous fix layout.css.prefers-color-scheme.content-override = 1 in about:config fixing it for years. This and the current replacement fixes don't save. I want a solution for PERMANENT light mode (black text on white background) for ALL menus, pop-ups, dropdown menus and hover over tab info.

And don't tell me to go search for a different theme I've already spent hours doing that and firefox has broken them only making some menus use the appropriate mode. On top of that I can't even pick an option to search for one that uses light mode I just have to go through each one and try it if I want to know which mode it uses that is NOT a solution to anything.

Replacement "fixes" for reference: ui.systemUsesDarkTheme won't even let me set to 0 only has true/false browser.theme.content-theme set to 1 browser.theme.toolbar-theme set to 1 (Why in the absolute hell these were added when a simple addition to preference setting wasn't is beyond me)

Very sorry for the aggressiveness but I am so very VERY tired of having to fight firefox on this preferance for years when their dark mode hurts my eyes.

Hi. I cannot use stripe payments. I am using FF vLatest and have added it to the popup blocker exception list and every other exception list I can find. I have done this for http://stripe.com and for whatever website is trying to use stripe. No stripe payments ever work and I always get the same error attached. I have tried another browser and it works. How can I find out at least what is blocking the payments so I can disable it?

Is there any way to set up TB to have only ONE Delete action per keypress? That does not mean a limit of one message per Delete keypress -- for example, if multiple messages are selected, then a single Delete keypress should delete all selected -- but just that the Delete key must be released and pressed again for successive Delete actions.

[Searching on this topic before asking, I noticed a number of questions regarding multiple unwanted or inadvertent Delete actions, which all seem to boil down to this question, but could not find an instance where this simple question was asked, let alone answered.]

I could not find anything in TB Settings or Config Editor (searching "delete", "keypress", "key"). There were a few suggestive Config Editor variables containing "key", but none seemed on-point. Is there any documentation on Config variables?

I have disabled sponsored shortcuts in Firefox settings, and did this when I first set up my browser.

Today when launching my browser the first link in my shortcuts was to @Google which I specifically do not use. I do not use google search. I do not want google search. I do not want cookies or content from google.

Why was this sponsored shortcut pushed to my browser after I disabled sponsored shortcuts?

In Outlook, when I navigate to a folder and reply to an email in that folder, the email I send is automatically categorised into that folder, and no other copy appears elsewhere (such as in the 'Sent' folder).

Is this behaviour natively possible in Thunderbird without resorting to an add-on?

I realise there is the option to 'Place replies in the folder of the message being replied to' in the 'Copies & Folders' settings of the email account, but this places a second copy in the 'Sent' folder. I tried experimenting with the radio button options '"Sent" Folder on' and 'Other' in the same settings section, but no combination seems to place one and only one email corresponding to the email I sent in the folder I emailed from without creating a copy in the 'Sent' folder of the account.

Hi,

I recently setup a second computer and installed Thunderbird (Built 115.13.0 (64-bit)) again. I transferred all my preferences, but have this strange problem, that the appearance of the email list looks different. In the previously installed version it is a simple list with separators and in the new installed version every email is in a separate box. I included the screenshots as a reference.

I googled and searched the settings to align this, but unfortunately without success. Does anyone know how to change this?

Thank you!

How do I restart with add ons disabled.? There is no option as stated https://www.wikihow.com/Start-Firefox-in-Safe-Mode

Hello,

I am reaching out to gain information on ADMX GPO policies. We are retiring Policy Pak which used to add all the policies and secure Firefox for Enterprise. What we noticed is that Policy Pak used the app set to apply these policies and we are noticing that native GPO's for the most part to match the Policy Pak policies is not as accurate for GPO's My ask here is there any Most Viable Product suggestions to apply Native GPO's for securing Firefox.

As per this archived question: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1386828 I want to turn off junk filtering completely. Like the poster on the above mentioned question, I have done everything suggested, but Thunderbird still puts messages into the Junk folder. How can I achieve this? Info requested on the above mentioned question: - I am using Thunderbird 115.13.0 (64-bit) on Xubuntu 22.04 - My email service is gandi.net

I have a new desktop. I checked the box in Settings to "Always ask you where to save files." However, it's still dumping files in Downloads without asking.

Why, and how do we correct that?

Since the most recent upgrade automatically pushed to my Ubuntu-like release of Linux, the menu bar of message composition is effectively invisible. If I hover over the bar I can faintly see the selections as white-on-pale-grey. I have not found where in settings to revert whatever was changed. It makes it hard to Send my messages!
