Thunderbird 115.0.1 display glitches
I always thought that some of the best advice is "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." This concerns aspects of 102.13.0 that worked fine, but are glitchy in 115.0.1.
I use Thunderbird to archive from Hotmail (Outlook), AOL, AT&T's Currently (a Yahoo front), and GMail. I am also having to abandon Hotmail (Outlook) because of the characteristic haphazard programming that Microsoft practices, so I have been moving folder contents, sometimes many messages, at a time.
I see that the visual indicators in 115.0.1 is glitchy. I just selected a brace of about 817 emails in a Hotmail folder to be moved to the locally stored Thunderbird folder. After having higlighted the range, when I drag to the Thunderbird folder, only one file shows as being moved, but it stays visible in the source window *and* displays a weak-flash around that one file in the source window.
If I look elsewhere, I can see indication that the files are being moved, but the quirky flashing really looks like there is some error.
When the files to be moved finally all disappear from the source window, I then get a notification that slides in from the top right, saying, "The operation on XXXX failed because there was" and this is the *next* problem, because (1) the window is too small to display the complete message, (2) it slides away much too quickly to be read at a normal pace, (3) there is no way to retrieve and read the complete message, and (4) the movement of emails HAS, in fact, been completed.

And the XUL used to draw the Thunderbird interface is subject to removal from the mozila plaftorm on which Thunderbird is built. So it was broke, or soon would be because soon Thunderbird would be relying on non existent building blocks.

A very risky choice. You might want to have a look at this open bug to form your choices. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=538375

I do not use 115, so I can not comment. But that the userinterface is trying to offer some feedback sound like a distinct improvement to me. Historically it just lost the plot and didn't transfer some of the mail.

There are no files being moved anywhere. There are emails which amount to data streams being added and removed from remote servers and there are other data streams being appended to existing local files in the case of local folders. There will also be various IMAP commands around marking message as deleted (not around deleting them), both locally and on the server. There might even be an expunge being executed on the server and a compact on Thunderbird to actually finally delete the data. Either after each email, or once only. It depends on setting and servers.

You visual that something is complete is not a guarantee that is is so. That bug I referenced and it attendant dependents should make it clear.
All errors in Thunderbird can be accessed in the error console (ctrl+shift+J) It will not be as pretty, but it will be much more exact and detailed.
