Hello, In Thunderbird... Since a recent update (perhaps within the past month), when I delete an email, it takes some time and goes to "not responding" briefly while it waits. This also sometimes seems to happen when sending. But it does NOT happen when receiving messages, so I am doubtful that it is anti-virus related (using only Windows Defender, no 3rd party anti-spam or anti-virus.)

This never happened before the update. Currently using 128.4.1esr (32-bit), but that update was just this morning and it was happening prior to that.

Any thoughts?

Thanks. Scott

When I look at any email it is blank. Furthermore, when I moved three emails I lost them completely. This has only just happened. Is it because of an update? what do I do?

It is annoying that the message Delete button in the Inbox is not in a fixed position. It moves when one selects a set of emails to delete and fewer selection buttons appear. When in a hurry, I have hit Archive instead of Delete because the location moves, wasting my time to redo what I wanted.

Please FIX the location of the Delete button so it stays in one place across functionality in the Inbox--a UX improvement!

thunderbird version 2024 - toolbar customization: missing: "delete" and "junk"

Dear ,

we send a note as i handle average day, some 1000 emails in thunderbird.

for handling this , we use thunderbird last 10 years, where as the mail toolbar is:

previous - next - (delete ) - (junk )

In all versions up to 2023 , we would install above 4 (four ) settings on one line after each other.

In the new version from 2024 , the settings between: ( ) , are no longer in the main possibilies, but

we must use these settings on the line under; which takes far more time than all on one line.

Is it possible to have the ( ) settings, in the next new version , back again , like before ??

Nice greetings,

The global search in TB is completely defective. I am now running 128.2.0esr and hoped that update might fix it. It hasn't. I just wonder, are there any older or non ESR versions I can downgrade/move to, where the search is fully functional?

I have Thunderbird connected to a number of providers including hotmail and OVH, all configured for IMAP. OS = Linux Mint

Everything was working fine until I installed the upgrade to 128.4 offered by the Linux Mint update manager.

Since then it takes a very long time to even send a simple email with CPU usage going up to or even over 100% (multi-cores). Even in normal usage with nothing happening Thunderbird is using 25% of the CPU.

The sending process often times out giving a message that says the connection was lost to the SMTP server.

I have a calendar reminder from last week (I was away from the computer). Now, it keeps popping up. If I click dismiss or dismiss all, nothing happens.

I am running 128.4.0.

Guten Tag, ich habe soeben eine einmalige Spende überwiesen. Wahrscheinlich hat die Überweisung per Kreditkare funktioniert. Dabei wunderte mich, dass ich, obwohl ich bei meiner Bank die 2-Faktor-Authentifizierung aktiviert habe, meine Banking-Sicherheit-App keine Bestätigung verlangte. Bei andern Überweisungen auf diversen Webseiten funktionierte das stets. Unterstützt Thunderbird Mozilla die 2-Faktor-Identifizierung nicht? Das wäre schade. Und ich habe keine Gefühl dabei.

Dear all, Regardless of the theme in Thunderbird I choose, whenever I open a message the background color of the messages is light yellow, what is quite awful and often prevents some message from been read because of the lack of contrast.

I can't find a way to change that. Is there a way to change that, for instance by editing the contents of the XPI of the theme I use?

What should be the CSS code used for that?

 thanks a ton for you attention!,

Up to version 132b1, account retrieval worked. Since Version 132b2 (b3, b4, b5, b6, 133b1) following fault:

The setting is ‘Only download header data when starting TB’

Since 132b2 the following message and click link is missing: "Download the rest of the message"

Hi to all,

I send messages over php with a link, for example:

Koordinaten: <a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=49.7997283719618&mlon=7.796087265014649&zoom=15&layers=M" title="Kartenübersicht im Browser öffnen">49.7997283719618, 7.796087265014649</a></p>

When I copy the source code the link is correct. When I copy the whole html mail source code in a blank page and save it as .html, the link is correct, too. It works and the code generator (notepad++) shows no error.

But:

In the Mail Preview an -view the link is shorten to: ttps://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=49.7997283719618&mlon=7.796087265014649&zoom=15&layers=M The first h is gone. Any idea, how this could happen?!

I used to be able to copy a Table from a Word document and past it into a Thunderbird email and maintain the formatting. Between 1 Nov and 2 Nov I can no longer do this. When I copy and paste the formatting is lost. Can you help please? Thank you.

I would like to turn the Thunderbird Spam Filter totally off. It marks legit mails with *** Spam *** and is just annoying.

I followed all instructions in: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-and-junk-spam-messages

I unchecked 'Enable adaptive junk mail controls for this account' in all accounts.

AND STILL: Why is the junk filter active?

I would like to raise a bug report for this.
