Thunderbird Support Forum

I recently patched to Thunderbird 115.12.2, and discovered that threading has been turned on everywhere. Reading through the forum, I disabled threading by default in the config editor via mailnews.default_view_flags, and manually went through every folder setting "View" -> "Threads" -> "Ignore threads".

However, it appears that disabling threading is only honored for the inbox. Setting "ignore threading" on any other folder is ignored, and Thunderbird continues to thread.

For example here is the "Sent Mail" folder with "ignore threads" set (see screenshot) and it still displays with threading. Apparently, "ignore threading" only works with the inbox. I would like threading disabled on all folders, not just the inbox. If there was a switch to disable threading universally, that would be easiest for everyone who dislikes threading.

Thanks in advance. John N. jnyhuis@gmail.com

Hi I am dying to convert my thunderbird email into a kanban board in thunderbird and then access the emails there as I need to work with them. This will allow to automatically see which emails are still to be done etc but in a very visual way instead of just scrolling through my email tags.

Does this exist and if so please how do I find it?

if it does not exist could the developers please kindly consider adding it into future thunderbirds?

I have seen some posts on this request but unsure if anything has been done to add/use if already there a feature to make an email account "inactive". I have several email accounts set up in Thunderbird but do not use them much but don't want to delete the account but don't want to have to have them active either. Any update on this issue is appreciated.

I would like messages I identify as junk, or messages automatically identified as junk, go to the spam or junk folder. All junk messages remain the main inbox.

On the other hand, in my "spam" folder are many emails that have gotten sent there automatically, but none of them are identify as spam (by the fire symbol being lit up).

In settings, I have "junk settings, box check on new junk messages to:, other, spam.

I also tried box check on new junk messages to:, Junk folder on:

I have a <something> that creates a daily sunrise and sunset entry time in my diary. It isn't an addon as far as I can see. It's not a prewritten list, but seems to create its entries dynamically when I first look ahead to a date- filling all the days with the correct sunrise and sunset times. The normal reoccurring event options don't appear when I delete one. i.e. doesn't offer me the option to delete all the events. I have no idea what I did to set this up ( it must have seemed a good idea at a time). I can not see any subscription that would account for it. I've checked all my accounts on my devices. Thunderbird/Betterbird on my main PCs and Outlook.com on my iPhone just in case I brought it in to TB that way ( which seems unlikely). Nothing. Clearly something is working away generating new sunrise and sunset times to display in TB. But I can't find any way to kill it off. I must have found a sunrise/sunset app that does this, but I have no idea how or where. Any suggestions. Either where it might be hiding in TB or where I can track it down and look for instructions.

Edit: Is there any kind of logfile that tracks such events being created?

Hello: t-bird 115.12.2 esr dev build. W11p laptop. Drag & drop (also paste) for putting a file inline for a msg do not function "any more," this has functionned in earlier versions. I can only attach the file. I have changed config ed settings mail.inline_attachments & mail.inline_attachments.text to true & restarted t-bird, to no effect (no inline). This is for a simple .rtf of 340 bytes (yes, very small). Please advise. Thank you.

My many message filters were lost in updating to 115, and it has taken much time to reconstruct the new layout to be usable. If this was AI generated, it is a poor outcome.

Using TBird 115.10.1 64-bit on Windows 11. For ease of reading text in mail I am composing, I would like to select a large font size. In Settings | Fonts I chose Arial 18; but for some reason I get a small monospaced font whenever I start a new message. I can enlarge it with Ctrl-Plus, but it reverts to its old ways for the next new message. How can I make the change stick?
