Now it's completely impossible to open PDFs outside Firefox, as I could do until the last couple of beta versions.

This trend is going on since a few years ago, from bad to worst. The whole design of the PDFs download process is bad. PDFs should be treated by FF as any other file: download and open with the system default PDF viewer. Imposing Firefox's internal PDF viewer as mandatory for downloaded PDFs is nonsense.

I have turned off the junk mail/spam settings, both globally and for each account. I have rebooted several times. Each time, while the settings all say junk screening is turned off, each account has junk mail moved to the junk folder after IMAP sync. I run my own mail server. It is not doing this, Thunderbird is. Does anyone have any idea how to get the program to follow what I actually want? Why have the settings if they don't actually do anything? Getting very frustrated here.

The Thunderbird action now taken when the X on the upper right mini menu (Minimize, Maximize,Close) treats the "Close" option as a "move to run in background and do not add an indication to the taskbar". Every other Windows program treats this CLOSE as a QUIT/EXIT. Somewhere along the way T-Bird changed its standard action away from the QUIT/EXIT.

  This is very irritating to me as I run a desktop and a laptop accessing the same set of post offices using TB on each.  I will "X" out of TB on my desktop and activate my laptop later only to discover the laptop has no new email since the desktop TB was downloading email in its hidden state.
   Please add an option so I can  use the "X" as a QUIT for TB - the current 3 button quit is very awkward as well as unnatural.  I really don't want to set the "Check for new messages" option off and remember to periodically poll for new messages !!!  PLEASE

Thuderbird constantly goes into a state of "not responding". I have tried everything I find on line and nothing works to fix it. I am about to un install it and stop using it but would like to try one last chance. I really like it but it does not work correctly. Thanks

I using TB 128.6 on a Macbook running Sequoia 15.1.1. Occasionally, I also use an Iphone to compose emails. When I compose an email on my Iphone, it saves it in one of the Drafts folders. When I compose an email on my Macbook, it saves it in the other Drafts folder. I am using a gmail account. Is there a way to change this so they both save to a single Drafts folder?

See screenshot attached for picture of the two folders.

Thanks for your help.

ver: 134.0.1 Windows 10 Pro I have Firefox set to open filetype PDF in Browser. Normally I use IDM which automatically download PDFs, unless I press ALT key while clicking DOWNLOAD button, then it does not, in order to allow Firefox to handle the PDF.

Firefox presently does nothing. With filetype setting set to Open in Browser, Firefox Does nothing. If settings are set to Ask, it does not ask. The PDF filename appears at bottom of screen momentarily.

ver: 115.19.0esr Windows 7 Utl 7601 The exact same behaviour was also seen on a Windows 7 system running Firefox 115.19.0esr. PDF is also set there to "Open in Firefox". Again, when ALT pressed when clicking Download button, Firefox does nothing.

When I am on Facebook and I am viewing photos and I attempt to enlarge them for better viewing all i get is a black screen. I was not having this problem before. If I change browsers to Google Chrome or MSN I do not have this issue. I prefer to use Firefox as my default browser, I have not changed any settings that would affect this so I am not sure why this is happening only on Firefox!. Please assist. Thanks in advance.

Hello, I use my providers web email promail.ptd.net , but they don't have where I can add a sound to incoming email or specific ones.. I did add the promail to your notifications,settings, but can you explain to me what the step would be to get their incoming email to make a sound of choice while using Firefox? or do i have to switch to an email program that already has that option? I wish Eudora would continue!

I used to be able to hold the back button down so I could see a short history for the current tab, and I'm not sure if it was an update or a bug, but does anyone know if it's possible to enable it in about:config? It's really useful when you're trying to go back but a redirect is preventing you.

I have Windows 11 and have a yellow on black theme. In Thunderbird I have the Dark theme.

The Folders in the folder pane are white. However, the messages in the message list pane are yellow.

What code can I put in the userChrome.css to make them white?

On the account selection screen on the Android app, it uses the first two letters of the account name inside the displayed circle so you can quickly select a different account to view. My issue is, two of my accounts start with "sa" and two start with "sj", so I have 2 pairs of duplicate abbreviations. How can I update the abbreviations in this list without renaming the accounts? Hopefully I'm just not finding some easy setting somewhere, but to date I haven't been able to locate it. I'm including a screen shot of the list from my phone, you can see the first 4 entries are 2 pairs of apparently duplicate entries. Please advise!

Thank you for your attention to this matter,

One thing I would love to be implemented is a way to bulk erase all at once all messages in the Trash and Junk folders. Sometimes they have a lot of messages, especially trash.

Guten Tag

Könnten die Programmierer der Benutzeroberfläche in Thunderbird den Teil, wo "von", "an", "Betreff" und "Antwort an" aufgeführt ist, schmaler gestalten (Zeilen näher zusammen), so dass etwas weniger von der Bildschirmansicht verdeckt wird? In älteren Versionen war das deutlich besser gelöst. Wäre toll, wenn das bei der nächsten Aktualisierung berücksichtigt wird.

Danke, dass sich jemand darum kümmert.

LG, Irène

I saw an image in here from someone replying to a different question where they had an actual icon for their unread mail status rather than the dot. How do you do that? Thanks!

I was using DuckDuckGo and it failed a connection, now trying to switch to Firefox as my browser. I still get confused about browsers and search engines, but I want to be able to connect to a website that did not function with DuckDuckGo, all of a sudden and for no reason I could figure out. I have Microsoft 365 Windows 11 (I think) on 1 laptop and Windows 10 on another laptop; I am trying to use the newer laptop with Windows 11 but not totally switched over.
