Dear Folks at Firefox, Mozilla

In last few days I really have a big problem with trying to browse with my favorite browser Firefox. It is that cursor always goes to address bar instead of search bar when I am trying to surf the web. I tried all the fixes that I found online with changing things in about:config still with no solution.

I am running on Windos 11 and using latest Firefox version.

Kind regards Aljosha Mileta

Please return my Computer to using Firefox default as my browser as it was 2/01 /2026.Ive tried several times to do this w/o success . I was using windows 11 and have been trying to get rid of MS365 which I never used but have been charged for a solution , but have been blocked and refused cancellation after they asked me to change my email address and PW . Insanely confusing !

Hey,

Just recently the Firefox Focus app I use for quick searches decided to change the white text of the recommended results go gray in dark theme. This makes the text hard to read. I've tried clearing cache, reinstalling, force quitting and changing the theme on the app and on my phone. How can I get the text back to white?

Issue

Thunderbird fails to wrap long lines of HTML-formatted text that is wrapped in a <pre> tag. This behavior is consistent in both the email viewer when viewing received emails, as well as in the email composer when writing an email containing preformatted text.

What I tried

1. Make all settings of config editor that contain the word wrap as true 2. make a userContent.css stylesheet within the chrome directory within the profile directory.

Question

How do I post the offending HTML code (and the CSS file I tried) on this forum?

How do I force Thunderbird to wrap preformatted text?

For some reason on the app it switches between two layouts for my gmail account. From the photos I attached a drop down menu that says gmail is present in one of them but sometimes when I go to open the app sometimes it will just show it fully with out the gmail part.

If its possible I would like it to now show the gmail drop down menu.

I have subject correspondents and date with messages on the right. The date column is so wide that the message pane is half off the page so I have to scroll right to see that side. Is there a way to narrow the date column please?

My folders used to show a yellow diamond when there was new email in the folder. The folder colour does still change to blue to indicate unread email. When I open a folder, the yellow diamond still shows up on new email, as well as the unread flag. What have I done? How do I configure Thunderbird to show that yellow diamond on folders with new email?

I'm posting this because I really miss this feature and don't understand why it's gone. I have tried the safe mode as well and there is no "Create Filter From Message" option when right clicking a message. Filters work otherwise though. What am I missing? current version 140.3.0esr 64 bit on Win 11. Thanks.

I don't see this addressed recently and the fixes from previous versions don't work. Using Thunderbird 140.5.0esr (64-bit) on Mac OS Monterey 12.7.6. Since T-bird updated I have not been able to change font colors or highlight font any outgoing email and I can't see colors in my incoming emails. I can copy and paste incoming emails into a word document and the color formatting shows up. If I write an email in a word document, change the color then copy and paste this into an outgoing email it reverts to black font. I can change bold/italic/underline.

I disabled my two extensions and tried again - no change either sending or viewing received colors

Under Settings > Composition > HTML Style "Use reader’s default colors" is checked and under > Sending Style "Both HTML and Plain Text" are checked

I'm missing something here but can't figure it out!

Hi,

I'm running Thunderbird on iMac.

I've been quite meticulously color-coding a large number of my folder icons (under "properties" for each) over the past couple of years, but now all my icons have gone back to that default yellow.

I've tried running in troubleshoot mode, but that makes no difference. So now I've updated to 128.5.2esr Nebula, which purports to be the newest. Still, nothing has changed.

Is there any way I can restore those colors? I could, of course, re-assign them by hand, but it would be a major task offering no guarantee that the icons won't simply switch back to default all over again.

I was viewing a new email in the usual way. At the top, there was the yellow bar with the option: Show remote content in this message

I accidentally chose not to display the remote content. I would now like to display it. However, I could not find a way to do this.

How do I display remote content after choosing not display it? Or, how do I get the "Show remote content in this message" option to return to an email?

I believe that version 145.0, newly installed on the 9th December, 2025 was showing server folders correctly; the server folder name matched the client folder name.

After upgrading to 146.0 on the 10th December, the server folder names for some folders are displaying with different client folder names.

The IMAP account has both "spam" and "junk" folders, Thunderbird is now displaying both as "Spam", you can only determine which folder is which by showing folder properties. It appears to users that there are two "Spam" folders now and not the two distinct folders with their own names.

Similar behaviour is happening for "Sent" and "Sent Messages" folders, both now display as "Sent".

These changes are confusing, the client sees two "Spam" folders and two "Sent" folders instead of the original proper server folder names.

Why has the display name for these folders changed?

How can I get TB to display the real underlying folder names?

Hi all I'm banging my head against a brick wall trying to get the app to automatically show remote images. A google search says go to Account settings > Reading mail but this isn't an option in the android app, there is only General Settings and no Reading mail. How can i get my emails to display properly automatically ?

Thanks all, Nick
