Hi, I have been using T-Bird and Firefox exclusively on Ubuntu since 2014. Periodically, and it seems to coincide with either one of those updating, I have had an ongoing issue with my ability to click on links in my email and have them automatically open my browser (if not already open) or to open in a tab when Firefox is already open. At some point while suffering with this condition it will 'just fix itself' and work sometimes for months or years then do it all over again. I have tried over the years to fix it myself and have read & tried every suggested solution that can be found. I can open my emails in AOL, click on any link and have it open in Firefox. This leads me to believe the problem is with T-bird and not any settings in my browser but just in case I have examined settings in both apps and not found a cause or solution. I have tried every suggested fix in 'config' and have even removed and reinstalled T-bird three different times over the years but to no avail. I really hate having to start over with a new installation especially since it doesn't fix the problem but has caused no end of headaches trying to retrieve my address book and re-customize my email program back to how I like it. PLEASE! Mozilla it's time to fix this ongoing problem that quite obviously plagues so many users out there. I am open to any and all suggested solutions but will be surprised if anyone can suggest something I haven't already tried.

Environment: Windows 10 22H2, Thunderbird 128.0.1esr 64-bit on two different PC's, "A" and "B".

Scenario and steps to reproduce:

(1) On "A", installed extension "remove duplicate messages" (version compatible with Tbird 128). Works fine. Profile on this PC is D:\Alice\Thunderbird\Main.

(2) Completely get out of Thunderbird on "A".

(3) On "B", launch Thunderbird accessing the same profile residing on "A" as mounted drive, "Q:\Alice\Thunderbird\Main". Mail, calendar, etc work fine. However, the extension is not available (No "Remove Duplicates" on context menu or Tools menu). On Tools :: Extensions and Themes, extension shows up with a blank (empty) icon.

(4) On "B", disable the extension, close the "Extensions and Themes" tab and completely get out of Thunderbird. Re-launch Thunderbird, go to Tools :: Extensions and Themes, and the icon has reappeared. After re-enabling the extension, it is active and works flawlessly.

(5) Then, completely get out of Thunderbird on "B".

(6) On "A", launch Thunderbird. It now exhibits the same behaviour for the extension: it is not available, and the icon is blank. Performing the same steps as in step (4) above restores the extension to its working state. And, you have probably guessed by now, it is no longer working on "B" !

Just to make sure this is not specific to this particular extension ("remove duplicate messages"), I installed another extension ("Quicktext"), and it behaves exactly the same (either singly, or with "remove duplicate messages" still installed).

So, it seems that you cannot use extensions from the same profile accessed via two different paths, one PC accessing it via a local drive and another accessing it via a mounted drive. I want to re-interate, before someone asks, that Thunderbird is completely down on one PC before I try to access the profile on the other PC.

Has anyone seen this behaviour on Tbird 128 ?

Thanks.

Great update today! I like seeing the sender's email address, not just the name. BUT:

Now I can't send email. How do I fix this? Are YOU fixing this? Seems like this is a "you" problem, not a "me" problem--I haven't changed anything on my end.

TIA!

Hello, Today I tried to upload some images to a seller on eBay, and consistently got the popup pictured below. I've never seen, heard of or had this issue before and searching for it comes up with nothing useful.

Any ideas? Using Firefox 115.13.0esr (64-bit)

Thanks

Why can I no longer get to my e-mail or bank website on Firefox without jumping through a bunch of hoops. I can get to them on Chrome with no problem. Am I going to have to switch to Chrome which my wife uses?

I am unable to use my bill pay with my bank using Firefox browser. However, I am able to use it logging on with Microsoft Edge. What has changed with Firefox recently? This has only become a problem as of today.

When I do a search in Firefox, like "Find auto parts near me" it finds auto parts in Kissimmee, FL were I was last winter rather than where I've been since March. My location and default location in Windows correctly shows my address in Hot Springs,NC, as does the Chrome browser, so this is unique to Firefox. I have cleared cache, checked location settings in Firefox, etc. Some comment Firefox may get the address from my IP, but my IP says its in Marshall, NC where my ISP is. I prefer to use Firefox over Chrome, but its useless to search "near me" in Firefox since it doesn't know where I am.

The Help says to alter several Thunderbird features to allow Outlook to communicate. The last one says to change my Outgoing Servers setting for Authentication Method to OAth from normal password. That option is not present in my drop-down list.

I use pop3 for all my emails. I am setting up a new computer (not copying over old email backups) and trying to get my msn.com and live.com set up. It keeps telling me my username or password is incorrect. I can sign into the microsoft email directly, so I know they are correct. In thunderbird I add email and password for the msn email. click on pop3 - it auto populates the info. but when I click done - it states: unable to login at server. probably wrong configuration or username and password. (I did try imap with the same username and password and it worked - I just prefer to keep everything on my computer)

Is there a way to force FF to use HTTP/3? There are multiple instances (youtube, for example) when site says "alt-svc: h3", but FF ignores it and keeps using at best HTTP/2.

Fresh Install of Thunder Bird. Trying to send a new e-mail but not finding a SEND command there is only a SEND LATER button. Is there something wrong with my set-up that I need to change?

Also how can I change the font size of the tiles in my folders. I've searched the set-up over and over and not seeing an option for a font change. There is only a font change for new email.

Thanks Mike

I don't even move my mouse or do anything, and video is pausing randomly without any of my input. It doesn't have any frequency, it just happens. You can see it on video below. I watched nearly 5 minutes of a random video, and it paused 4 times without any reason. As you can see, everything I do is just moving my mouse a little and that's it. No more input from me. The video does it by itself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lf0IVpXfAdA&ab_channel=Kami In the video, it freezed at: 1:45, 2:45, 4:02, 5:10

Hello everyone, I have stored several e-mail addresses for most of my contacts (private address, business address, etc.) and now I want to create mailing lists that use different addresses of those contacts for different uses. But even if I add a specific address of a contact in a mailing list the address is altered to the address that ist marked as standard for this contact on saving the mailing list. So all mailing lists end up with the same addresses for the same contacts instead of different ones. Is that a intended behavour? Or in other words: mailing lists can solely contain addresses marked as 'standard'. It is not possible to use a 'alternative' e-mail address in a mailing list. I hope there is a way to achieve this which I haven't found so far. Kind regards, Peter

I saw a similar question, but it had been archived, and my question (above) got no results, so am hoping someone here can help me with an answer as to how to fix this issue.

After upgrade Thunderbird to Nebula Almost all themes have the problem or the error that they change the design when I click on compose new mail, for example. And this design is unfortunately almost illegible. What can I do?

Un known command and why CMD.exe not support the setting only (dir) only is enable. If I use help command ( the command I see is command on json like (HTML) is shud i install CMD.exe or remix.org commanf is this possible can i use this tnx..

Configuration details are below. The Firefox desktop for Windows address bar does not function [it was fine previously]. If search keys or an internet address are entered into it, carriage return results in no action. The address bar is fully functional in Troubleshooting Mode. Shortcuts on the New Tab page or the desktop DO function.

about:config>keyw>keyword.enabled DOES have a value of TRUE

AVAST virus checker reveals no malware.

I've no idea how to resolve this. Solution[s] welcome and appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi !

I'm running Thunderbird 129 (beta) on Win10. Long time user & fan of TB...

Currently, right-clicking on Properties or Compact for any folder won't launch/start anything in my TB. Any clue ? Many thanks !

Bit of context: . I'm running numerous accounts and folders; . here, I wanted to compact some folders to bring some hygiene to my mail boxes; . I've been running huge Inboxes (10ks of emails, Inbox file of several GBs... I know, this is BAD ! sorry...) . some of my folders are starting to show corruption symptoms (dates 1970, rubbish text in preview, nstmp folders...) . my TB is parametered to compact when 200MB are saved (though I doubt it actually does) . I used to have msgs requiring me to compact folders, but don't seem to have them any more (maybe the system got tired with my ignoring it ;)

I have read different threads about Compacting (Complications, workaround, Compacting folders...) and folders, but didn't found any solution/workaround. note: I haven't seen any post reporting this specific issue (right-click menu opens, but functionnalities there -such as Properties or Compact- seem inactive or somehow dis-activated).

I tried disactivating any download, and moved huge nstmp files out of the TB folders (trying to make them somewhat lighter).

Many thanks for your help !
