Hi,

It says to go to "Tools", "Options", "Advanced" to get rid of the extra dashes before the signature, but i have no such menu option... How can i get rid of the extra dashes? (Version of Thunderbird is 91.5.1 (64-bit) for Windows 10)

Thank you in advance.

Well, there's something amiss in your setup. That means you cannot change font and many other settings. You need the Preferences option for many settings. My suggestion is to reinstall TB. I have no idea why that is missing.

I did a de-install and then downloaded the installation package and installed it... But the same issue persists..

Managed to change the setting now, and the annoying dashes are indeed gone. Thank you so much David!
