Send Later View Keeps Appearing

When I first open Thunderbird, the Send Later column keeps appearing in my mail inbox view. If I right click and disable the option it goes away, but always reappears the next time I open Thunderbird. I can also get the Send Later column to disappear if I select another mailbox then go back to my primary mail inbox. My normal configuration includes Thread, Starred, Attachments, Read, Correspondents, Junk status & Date. I've never really customised this since forever so could there be something screwed up with my config? This issue only first began occurring several months/updates ago. Currently I am on 102.2.1

That 'Send Later' column is not default in Thunderbird and does not appear in the column header options.

As Matt says - you must be using the 'Send Later' addon or downloaded and installed it and forgot it was there.

If using addon - the first column header in the message list is the 'Send Later' schedule time - if set. It is usually enabled and displayed in the 'Drafts' folder.

Menu icon > Addons & Themes > Extensions Click on the 'Send Later' spanner icon, you will see an option/checkbox to 'show Send Later column'

What is this? Perhaps you could post an image of what you are seeing.

The only "send later" user interface I am aware of is provided by this addon https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-us/thunderbird/addon/send-later-3/

Uploaded image showing the send later column which appears... then disappears, as soon as I click somewhere else.

Thanks to Toad-Hall. It was indeed an extension which I've no idea how it came to be installed. Extension removed and issue resolved.
