How do I remove the two hyphens that get added my email whenever I use a signature (every email).

I know this has been resolved on some previous editions of Thunderbird but the latest 115.2.3 and the previous one appears that editing the config file to make changes is no longer an option the way it was being done on older versions.

Also, why is it even there?

With the latest update of Thunderbird I have lost all my tool bar customization. I thought this update was to improve my experience and make things better for me. Making me try to redo all my setting just because some developer needs to put his own stamp on this product is not helpful nor improve my experience. How do I get my layout back? How can I revert back to the previous version????

Hello everyone, I just installed Thunderbird Beta (114.0b6 - 64 bit) out of curiosity.

When I import RSS Feed, all icons representing folders are gone unlike on Thunderbird Stable version.

Although Feed Subscription pop up window still show icon for each feed folder.

Is this normal on Thunderbird Beta?

I want to move the search bar off to the side because I am usually click what is now the center of the toolbar to go back to the window. I searched this forum and only found how to remove it. I know I can turn off "Hide the system window titlebar" in order to have a clickable space there, but that wastes a lot of space. I also know I can remove the search bar, but I don't think I'll remember the search shortcut (<command>+<k> on mac) because I don't use it often. It seems like I should be able to move and resize the search bar, but whenever I remove the flexible space to the left of it, it gets far wider than I need it to be (and if I also remove the flexible space on the right, it goes full width). I can't seem to resize the search bar directly or by adjusting the size of the flexible space (which is to say I can't find anywhere to drag on the search bar or the flexible space while in the Customize Toolbars screen or in the main window), and each flexible space I add to the right of the search bar reduces its size by less and less such that after the 3rd flexible space is added, adding additional flexible spaces is almost inconsequential (while the search bar is, unfortunately, still completely in the way). Is it possible to control the size of the search bar another way, or is my best bet going to be to remove it and use the Edit menu when I need to search?

I'm converting from outlook and I'm wondering how to jump to a particular letter in the alphabet with scrolling to get to it when the emails from sorted by alphabetical order. In outlook you just click on the alphabet on your keyboard and it takes you right to the beginning of the emails starting with that letter. Just curious if thunderbird does this or if there is an add-on or shortcut to get there. Thanks.

I've been using Thunderbird for many years with great success but I cannot receive emails after the latest update as of 10/5/23. Outgoing mail works fine and I checked with my internet provider (Empire Access) to be sure all my setting were still OK and they told me my setting are correct. My gmail and Empire Access emails still work fine.

At age 85 I've lost my Primary Password and after trying all the solutions with Thunderbird/Firefox I'm lost. If only you could give me the other programs' way of proving I am who I am, like texting to my phone 510-575-6326 or other recovery steps, I would be relieved. Having to start from the beginning with a completely new Thunderbird???? NOO! Losing all my saved passwords, etc etc??? I've used Thunderbird for some decades now to support a charity program for impoverished Haitian children. PLEASE Help me get back my old Thunderbird.

I just upgraded to Mac's latest OS 14.0 (Sonoma.) Thunderbird will not load. When I run the application I get a beachball and an "application) is not responding" message. I have tried rebooting and all the "typical fixes.)

Is there an update coming? Something that I can delete to make Thunderbird work?

I can't control the FONT SIZE of the incoming emails with the new version of T'bird. Hate it!! It's ugly. Looks crowded and, as I said I can't set it so the incoming fonts are a readable size. OR the font size in the individual mail boxes... This lack of control makes it next to useless for me. I'm in my 70s and really do need the larger font sizes.

Thunderbird’s connection to one of my gmail accounts failed today.

I removed the account and then tried to add it again to Thunderbird.

When logging in using a Google generated App password, I receive the following message:

"400. That’s an error. The server cannot process the request because it is malformed. It should not be retried. That’s all we know."

OAuth2 is in place, and I’ve carried out all other recommended checks I can find on your website. My other Gmail accounts are working fine.

Please can you help? Many thanks.

I have spoken to my ISP and its confirmed, as have I, that I can log on to its website and successfully download my emails so the problem "must" lie with Thunderbird. I am not very technically inclined so would appreciate some advice please, thank you. My ISP technical person (at iiNet Australia) did say they were receiving a lot of phone calls today about email and "blamed" it on changes to Outlook? If this helps. Regards.

Starting yesterday, after the most recent update, every time I open/start Thunderbird the Microsoft password request box opens. I have several Hotmail accounts. I enter the correct password for each Hotmail account. If I close Thunderbird and open it, then it asks me again for the password on each account. It isn’t saving my passwords… I know the passwords work. If I go to Hotmail/Outlook.com then I can enter the same password and get to my inbox. I have version 115.2.3 (64-bit).

Yesterday I tried the 115 (Supernova) and I was disappointed because of the toolbar on top of the TB window: I think that you should let the user choose where put any toolbar, and I didn't find the way to move in its "classical" place (not at top but below the menu). There is a way to do it? And if not, please consider to give it as soon as possible.

Unified Folders in Thunderbird 115 for mac no longer works. Useless! Computer Tech specialist here and have been using Thunderbird for ages. With this latest version, the inbox, sent, etc etc etc no longer display as unified. The Unified Folders category when ON shows as its own item in the left column with a single empty inbox! Scrolling up and down to each account for each subfolder is a waste of time!!! Hope you fix this ASAP!!!!! Unified folders works fine in 10.12.13 but I cannot got back to that due to your system.

After moving my thunderbird 104 profile to 115 supernova (including the profiles.ini file), I can see the full list of accounts and folders in supernova, but none of the emails are visible. I can receive and send new messages, but again - none of them are visible when I want to see them later in the inbox or sent folders. Moreover, the right-click mouse button does not work on the whole list of accounts/folders on the left side of the agent. What to do. I have 16Gb of emails and cannot use them.

I had Thunderbird automatically upgraded to 115. Since then I only see the new emails, all folders and emails from September 12th, 2023 have disappeared. Unfortunately, the restore command doesn't help with MozBackup either; it is executed but with no result. Please describe to me step by step how I can restore the folders and emails.

In this folder: C:\Users\kschl\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird is just an old profile. Therefore, I wanted to use a backup via MozBackup to restore all data, unfortunately this doesn't work. An initial comparison of the newly created profile also shows the folders, but they are not displayed in Thunderbird - there is an incorrect setting.

Please describe this to me step by step, including in which directory I should store the backup in the future.
