Most of the time Thunderbird only opens incoming mail with a double click in a new window which I find infuriating so is there a workaround or a fix for this?
When Thunderbird starts, it opens incoming mail into the lower panel with a single click. But after an hour or two this no longer works and i have to double click to open the message which goes into a new window.

sounds like a bad add-on to me. Restart holding the shift key and see if the issue arises again.

Thanks for your response, Matt. I have now run for a fortnight without having to double click to see a new message. All add-ons are disabled and the trick will be to eliminate them one by one till I find the culprit. Cheers, Alan
Please post your final finding..

I thought I had posted my final finding. Starting TB with the shift key held disables add-ons and as Matt suggested, one of those was damaging the running TB. Problem solved. Thanks
