Hello everyone, I would like some help with an issue that's been bothering me and my boss at the office. We have Thunderbird with a bunch of accounts set up for work and we noticed that when we start typing a message, and then realize that oopsies, we meant to send it with another account, we switch account and the message we typed just simply disappears. Is there any option to avoid that? On another computer with accounts that are entirely different that these ones, Thunderbird doesn't empty the body of the message just because we choose another account as the sender.

Help, please?

Thanks!

Gin

Do you have any kind of add-on that controls the sending address, such as Correct Identity, Identity Chooser, Folder Account etc.? Or, to test the effect of any add-ons, does the same thing happen in safe mode (hold Shift when you launch TB)?
