Hello,

My company recently started using ActivTrak Monitoring software and I need some help configuring the setup for Apple computers. I'm trying to create a custom .mobileconfig to automatically turn on the browser extension and then stop the end users from turning the add-on off. I can successfully install and lock the extension on once installed but need to manually activate the add-on first. What do I need to add to the plist to enable the extension automatically?

Thank you!

Over the past few months, the default behavior of my Thunderbird client (11.5 on Win10) seems to have changed. In the past if I deleted an email or moved it to a local offline folder, the message would simply disappear from my Inbox - end of story. Lately when I do the same thing, the email removed from my Inbox gets pushed back down from the server. It behaves like IMAP is only syncing from server>client and not from client>server. I can delete email a second time and it will still sync down another copy the next time I launch Thunderbird. What am I missing here? I could change the 2nd & 3rd settings, but it's happening with messages that are only a few days old.

Sync & Storage

=

- [Y] Keep messages in all folders for this account on this computer - [Y] Synchronize all messages locally regardless of age - [Y] Don't delete any messages - [Y] Always keep starred messages

I really like FireFox mobile, but the amount of misspelled words is starting to become an actual problem for me.

I use a Samsung S8 with Android 9 and whatever predictive text functions it has are turned off because I find them beyond grating and it's just not how I check for spelling errors.

The reasoning to this function being ommitted was (last time someone asked the question) due to space.

Why can't this be an official plugin that people can add?

I'm supporting FireFox entirely for ethical reasons (the only non-chromium browser that still cares about privacy) but I just can't type like this anymore.

Will something be done about this function missing?

Using the latest version (127.0.2; installed from Play store today, on a fresh Android install), any non-English site I visit I get the nagging popup asking me if I want to translate.

'Never translate this site' works, and 'Never translate Dutch' (and presumably other languages as well) too (so at least I can workaround it, but 'Always offer to translate' off will still nag about translating sites, so is bugged.

And I still have the translate button taking up space in the URL bar. How do I remove it?

Whenever I log on to my bank's web site, I'm sent an audible signal that invites me to start a chat session with a bank agent. The problem is that the audible alert is so loud that it startles me. This is very annoying. I called the bank's help line and was told there was no way they could adjust the sound volume. I would like to know if it's possible for Firefox to decrease the volume for that web site.

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.

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?

Does "Apply columns" work in Tbird 115.12.2 (64-bit)?

I searched 'Thunderbird Solutions' for "Apply columns", then read several of the 156 results, and read the Help Article "Message List Columns" ... but the results were [imo] not encouraging :-(

Does "Apply columns to" really work as described in Help Article "Message List Columns" ?

Is "Apply columns" a known flakey feature ??

Have I got a corrupted profile ???

Or ????
